Be part of creating something beautiful for our community!
YWCA Evanston/North Shore is thrilled to partner with Project Color Corps (PCC) on an exciting community mural project!
Join us for a Color Seminar with Project Color Corps on:
🗓️ Tuesday, May 20th
🕓 4:30–5:30 PM
📍 YWCA Evanston/North Shore (1215 Church St.)
🌐 Virtual option available (Zoom link provided in confirmation email after registration)
This interactive seminar will explore the power and meaning of color — how we connect emotionally with color, how it influences the spaces we live and work in, and how color can be used to uplift, connect, and inspire communities.
You'll learn about PCC's concept of “Optical Optimism” and help us begin to shape the vision and feelof the mural that will transform the south side of the YWCA building (facing Church Street/parking lot) into a vibrant work of art designed with and for our community.
Who Should Attend?
Everyone! We welcome:
Program participants & clients
YWCA supporters & donors
Volunteers & board members
Families, youth, and community members of all ages
About the Mural Project
This is more than just a mural — it’s a collaborative experience that invites our entire community to be part of something lasting and meaningful. Together, we’ll design and paint a mural that reflects the heart of YWCA’s mission: eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all.
