In July 2016, New York–based artist Alice Mizrachi worked with Mayor Byron W. Brown’s Summer Youth Program at the Buffalo Center for Arts and Technology to develop imagery for a new mural on the side of BCAT’s building. The students then completed the mural, with the assistance and guidance of Mizrachi.

This mural is part of the Public Art Public School Voices program, a collaborative educational program developed by the Albright-Knox and the Buffalo Center for Arts and Technology with support from the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo.
