In 2024, the Tacony Community Develop Corporation and the Mural Arts Tacony LAB Community Arts Center teamed up to offer an Artist Residency in Tacony. This project was funded by the Philadelphia Activities Fund and Mural Arts Philadelphia. The results is a series of new banners installed along Torresdale Avenue in 2025.

Philadelphia artist Ayiana Viviana led the project by hosting workshops, creating art, and collecting inclusive phrases from Tacony neighbors. Then, the community came together to translate these phrases into 14 languages representative of the many cultures and demographics that call Tacony home.

These banners are located all along Torresdale Avenue between Unruh and Tyson Streets. Click the link below for a complete map! Can you identify all of the languages used?
