The BoardedUP Series is a unique outdoor art exhibition that features the art work of local area artists. Each artists has the opportunity to paint on a blank plywood board that is then hung in the windows on the Madison Avenue facing side of the Grand Street Community Arts Center. The BoardedUP Series was founded on the basis of turning blight and abandonment into opportunity.
The mission of Grand Street Community Arts is to create unity and connection, especially through the arts, in an inner-city neighborhood with racial and economic diversity.
The arts center creates a supportive community and focuses on its youth. The center presents a broad spectrum of arts programs and performances that encourage art as a natural tool of expression available to everyone. By restoring historic St. Anthony’s church as its home, the arts center creates and nurtures a link with the unique living history of the local community.
