The Heckscher Foundation for Children

Free Arts Mural

In 2006 The Foundation sponsored a competition, "Free Arts Mural Kids", to promote the work of young artists. The competition was judged by the noted architects Martin Finio and Taryn Christoff, who have been jurors at many competitions, including at Parsons, Harvard, Cooper Union and Carnegie Mellon. Stipends were awarded to 3 finalists. The winning design is displayed in the lobby of the Foundation's Headquarters.
