mural(壁画)of its kind.“It has been a community's
effort()Each family has taken part in it in some way,"
said Enrique Gomez.The project()was to make pcople feel better about where they lived
and to bring them together.
The neighborhood has changed completely.First,all the houses were painted white to
show that all the people were the same.And the colors of the mural gave it life.Then,the
relationships between people became closer.The project made the artists work with the people
there to paint the houses.
Life in Las Palmitas before the project was very different.People used to be afraid of
going out after dark.There was some crime and social problems.But now,life there is much
safer than before.Enrique Gomez won the trust of young people in the neighborhood.Inviting
neighbors to work together helped cut down social problems there.And it also helped to
develop the community spirit.
In the morning,people wake up and look around and see the colors around them.They are
very pretty.Many people go out and say,"Ah,everything is so nicely painted and fixed up."
56.How many houses'outside walls did the artists paint with the people?
