PATH TO FREEDOM MURAL

Location: 861 Broad St, Newark, NJ 07102, USA

The mural designed by Sue Daly was created with the Barat Foundation and Four Corners Public Arts in 2020. The Underground Railroad was the first civil rights movement in the country. The most famous conductor on the Underground Railroad was Harriet Tubman, an escaped slave responsible for helping over 300 slaves escape to freedom in the North. Ms. Tubman came through Newark and was harbored in the underground passageways at the First Presbyterian Church on Broad Street. The A.M.E. Zion church was also noted for its Underground Railroad activity. Black Abolitionists of the Newark church included Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, and Frederick Douglass. Sewing a Path to Freedom shares a series of quilt patterns that were packed with codes to assist in one’s journey to freedom.

NJCRI MURAL

Location: 393 Central Ave, Newark, NJ 07102, USA

This was mural designed by Sue Daly and created by the Barat Foundation and City Without Walls. It was completed in 2012. We completed our first City Mural, “STEPS”, a realistic depiction of the stories of the everyday heroes of NJCRI, an AIDS/HIV support facility, at the corner 1st and Central Avenues in Newark. This mural project is an initiative of the City of Newark Public Art Program in partnership with City Without Walls and the Barat Foundation. We thank all our friends at the City Mural Program, CWOW, and of course, at NJCRI, where everyday miracles transform lives.
