Join us for a community garden party to celebrate the permanent installation of artist Roberto Lugo’s monumental 11-foot public sculpture at KCT Community Garden as part of the We Here project. This outdoor sculpture, designed by Roberto Lugo, embodies the spirit of the community, integrating pattern designs and other input from Kensington residents. The garden party event will feature food, music, fun, and live pottery demonstrations by Roberto Lugo.

We Here is a two-year project spearheaded by Mural Arts’ Porch Light program, a collaborative effort with the City of Philadelphia’s Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services, which has worked to broaden access to the arts in Kensington since 2017. Inspired by Lugo’s journey as a professional artist who grew up in Kensington, We Here emphasizes youth engagement through pottery.
