Article 730

About Gentrified Wood

Through our new project "Gentrified Wood," we are taking discarded wood from gentrifiers' home improvement projects and turning them into works of art that beautify the community. Along with backstories of where this wood comes from the woodwork tells a deeper story of history, relationship building and community. What's more, we are teaching inner-city youth the healing power of woodwork and incorporating breath work as a technique for wood sanding that promotes mindfulness.

Our mission.

It's more than just art

It's a movement that empowers the youth and beautifies the community with otherwise discarded trash. Article 730 wants to be a shining example of how art and youth employment can be used to combat gentrification and promote social justice. Our work has a positive impact on the community, and the negative images associated with inner city youth.
