The GIVING CHALLENGE is coming…

The last Giving Challenge was September 2016

We raised $18,000 for our Firehouse Mural during the Giving Challenge in 2016. That project was completed in May 2017 and has become an amazing teaching tool for the hundreds of children (and adults) who have visited the mural at Fire Station #1.

It continues to educate, inspire and amaze.

We hope to do the same with our next mural project – The Harborwalk Mural

Harborwalk Mural Renderings

This mural will be painted on the retaining wall under the US 41 southbound bridge along the Punta Gorda Harborwalk. This walkway is used by more than 1000 walkers and bicyclists every day (2000 in season). What a great location to paint another educational mural. It will capture our Charlotte Harbor marine life, past and present.
