Brr! It was a cold day today, a day when it would have been easy to stay inside, to curl up with a book. Knowing that it was the start of several days of temperatures forecast to stay in the 20s, I dressed for the cold and headed to Salem.
My destination was a neighborhood called The Point, the home of the Punto Urban Art Museum. The project is led by the North Shore CDC with the following goal stated on the website.
I love walking through the neighborhood, peeking between buildings, wandering through alleys to find murals in many shapes and sizes. Some were easy to capture with my camera, some were very difficult. I plan to visit many times to try again!The Museum was created to break down the invisible, but undeniable socio-economic barrier between the Point Neighborhood and the rest of Salem and the North Shore. Through stunning, world class art, we want children in the Point neighborhood to grow up with pride, and we want the rest of the community to have a reason to visit and discover the welcoming community that we know and love.
