Artist Rose Jaffe helping kids paint a mural at Lincoln Park Community Center

Thanks to D.C.-based artist Rose Jaffe, a vibrant mural now adorns the playground-facing wall of the Lincoln Park Community Center at 357 Frederick Ave.

The mural features residents of all ages dancing, playing and moving together, alongside Maryland and Lincoln Park history, and welcoming words in multiple languages.

Funded by a $30,000 Maryland State Arts Council grant, VisArts led the project with the City of Rockville and Lincoln Park residents. Children from the community joined Jaffe to complete the artwork.

Watch a Rockville 11 video about the mural this January at www.youtube.com/cityofrockville.
