*Joyce Grant Project

The Joyce Foundation supports public education in Chicago, Cleveland, and Milwaukee. The Foundation looks for proposals that support change for the better in each district. This Joyce Grant was presented to The Chicago Park District and awarded to artist, Emily Gould, in August 2002. The purpose of this Joyce Grant was to enhance the existing dedicated Early Childhood Space. Large plywood, child-centered murals and cut outs, were painted for the children's playroom. These murals and cutouts create a colorful and fun atmosphere that stimulates the imagination and inspires learning. The early childhood Joyce Grant was completed and installed at The Lincoln Park Cultural Center in January 2003.

The Early Childhood Room was photographed by James Prinz.
