Gerardo Benitez Mural
The NELA Riverfront Youth Voices student producers created digital murals of their neighborhood and the places that are meaningful to them. Each mural contains 3 to 4 hot spots and a brief description below of these places and their significance to themselves and their community.
Gerardo guides us through his daily route from school to his home -- the businesses, homes and streets he travels on his skateboard. Click on the image below and then the play button to see Gerardo's work. Enjoy!
