A new mural at Rodney Park is bringing the ideas, experiences and creativity of the West Lancaster community to life! On Saturday, Aug. 1, neighbors, students, families and community partners will gather at Rodney Park for the mural’s official unveiling.
The event will take place from 2-3 p.m. and will give visitors an opportunity to learn more about the project, see the original artwork that inspired it and celebrate the many people who helped make it possible.
Led by Lancaster artist and West Lancaster resident Shauna Yorty, the mural began with a simple question posed to Lafayette Elementary students and neighborhood residents.
What makes you feel alive?
During the Aug. 1 unveiling, Rodney Park will also become an outdoor art gallery. Original drawings submitted by Lafayette students and community members will be displayed along the park’s fences, allowing visitors to see how individual ideas were transformed into the finished mural.

The project was made possible through a partnership among the West Lancaster Jewels neighborhood group, Lancaster Recreation Commission, the City of Lancaster, PA's Neighborhood Art Project, School District of Lancaster's Lafayette Elementary School and community volunteers.
