NYT momentarily pays attention to Philly pet project

Quick, check out the The New York Times's homepage, which currently features a big ol' story on none other than Philadelphia's Mural Arts Program, which this year is celebrating its 25th anniversary. "Community public art can knit people together in a way that other things can’t," program director (and erstwhile Penn prof!) Jane Golden tells the paper.  An accompanying slideshow features more murals you may have noticed during your travels about the city.  We offer a virtual pat on the back to all the community organizers out there who've contributed to this project (and would like to point out to Sarah Palin that community organizers, do, in fact, make a difference sometimes).  Three cheers for murals!
