On Tuesday, some of Boston’s brightest and most creative youths took to the South End to beautify an insipid concrete space along the Massachusetts Turnpike. The wall, bordering Frieda Garcia Park, is just one example of how Artists For Humanity is helping transform lackluster city spaces into ones people can admire and take pride in.

The installation, as seen above, is a sculptural mural formed in powder-coated metal and bedecked with vibrant colors. Thanks to AFH, the 120-foot wall that passengers can now enjoy while cruising down The Pike, is home to 130 of these metal elements which also complement the park’s own dynamic mosaics and murals.

The Frieda Garcia Park was built in commemoration of, and named after, Frieda Garcia, a longtime South End activist and community leader. Though the public space is innovative in its own right, housing custom designed play equipment and artworks that echo the surrounding urban context, The Friends of Frieda Garcia Park came to the conclusion that the playground could stand to extend its welcoming feel along this barren wall.

Artists For Humanity, an oasis for youths and teens from under-resourced areas with economic, racial and social disparities to explore their imaginations and creativity, was commissioned for the project to as a way of celebrating Boston’s penchant for fostering its future. These youngsters, after all, will one day be the civic-minded leaders of our city who will uphold the legacy of innovating not only in the tech and startup sectors, but in arts and culture as well.

And they’re not done beautifying Greater Boston.

The organization is currently working on a 12-foot metal sculpture to be installed in the new Baxter Park. This six-acre park, situated alongside the Mystic River in Somerville, is located at the newly developed Assembly Row – the new orange line MBTA stop of which boasts a bench dedicated to AFH. It’s being done in collaboration with Somerville’s youths and teens.
