When the Manor Art Group art group started last fall, they decided to create a mural as a thank you to essential Odyssey House employees who have continued working throughout the pandemic.
Gabe Ramirez, Senior Director of Residential Services, and James Emery, Program Director, Odyssey House Manor, with a mural honoring our dedicated employees.
The mural, which includes symbolic images of heroism and community positivity, was created by projecting text on a large canvas, which our artists then traced and painted. They also added patterns of smaller iconic images using multiple stencils. The final artwork is a bold expression of appreciation that honors our dedicated staff.
The bright, bold mural is on display outside the Manor facility on East 121st Street in East Harlem.
