Painting his designated block for 26 Blocks of Joy, the largest outdoor mural project in Queens, on 34th Ave. in Jackson Heights. “As a participating artist and co-organizer of this ambitious undertaking, I am genuinely thrilled to see our open street transformed by this labor of love from the Queens arts community.” “This project, the formation of Paseo Park and the founding of Epicenter NYC were all in some way connected to helping our neighbors navigate the pandemic, and frankly demonstrate the resilience to make the neighborhood even better than before.”
