‘Mana Public Arts Murals by Leading Street Artists from Around the World’ Book Cover
Founded in 2014 as an offshoot of the Mana Contemporary Arts Center, MPA has been an innovative mural program dedicated to large-scale, site-specific installations by renowned artists from all corners of the world.
Moishe Mana, the visionary behind this initiative, emphasizes the importance of culture.
We view culture as the energy that breathes life into a community before development even starts and sustains that life for decades. It's the fuel for arts and entertainment that creates breeding grounds for spontaneous interactions and exchanges.
— Moishe Mana, Founder and Chairman, Mana Common
To commemorate this achievement, MPA is partnering with the Museum of Graffiti for the upcoming Book Launch Gala – A Celebration of Street Art and Dialogue.
