THE ARTWALK
The Homewood Experience Curated Artwork
“No matter where you join the path, it will always bring you home.”
Art doesn't merely add color. It adds context to a growing conversation which is why the Artwalk invites residents and visitors to explore the history, culture and hope of Homewood.

Honoring Homewood Heroes
"Heroes are not giant statues framed against a red sky. They are people who say: This is my community, and it is my responsibility to make it better."
As a way to honor and uplift the neighborhood's heritage and culture, The Homewood Walk Of Fame will honor Homewood Heroes by displaying banners in the business district along N Homewood Ave from the Busway up to Hamilton Ave!

Outreach Projects
"Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much"
Our goal has always been to preserve the rich history, culture, and hope of Homewood. We understand we cannot erase any of the negativity, grief, and hardships Homewood has endured, but we can amplify the narrative that hope, good people, love, and progression still live in Homewood.
