"Pitch the City" Contest - Help turn Beantown into Greentown

Boston has been recognized as the 3rd greenest city in the nation. Help us get to number one!

WINNER: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Mural Project Alexandra Reilinger (11) and Mikayla Colson Leaning (12), Jamaica Plain, MA

Murals related to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle that would be painted at Boston Public Schools and T stops, and on electrical boxes, with Recycling Bins next to the murals. The murals would engage Boston residents, workers, and visitors to reduce, reuse and recycle. They already have the support of Boston’s Youth Mural Crew. Can the power of public art change the way we act? Boston has been recognized as the 3rd greenest city in the nation. Thank you to all of the people that submitted ideas to Pitch the City, a collaborative contest from D2E and the City of Boston that seeks creative ideas to help make Boston better for people and the planet.
