From Gang graffiti to a beautiful mural highlighting the Atlanta University Center's history with the Ashview Heights Neighborhood. On January 18, 2016 Ashley along with the Ashview Heights neighborhood painted over gang graffiti on the side of the Fair Street Superette. We then sent out a call to loval schools to have the children decide what they would most like to see on the wall. Ashley designed the mural based on the children's drawings. Ashley teamed up with Sachi Rome to complete the 125 ft mural along with kids, teens and residents who passed by. At the end of the mural the community painted their handprints on the bottom of the wall and signed their names. This mural brings Ashley great pride in changing the spirit of the community with art.
