A breath-taking 140-ft mural, titled Swan Dive, just appeared in a leafy Deep South neighborhood, in the midst of a pandemic and a national racial awakening, at the beginning of 6 young artist's careers. Inspired by our podcast, this group of art students and friends safely took broke quarantine to bring public art and joy to an appreciative urban neighborhood block. In the process, their lifelong desire to be professional artists when they "grow up" just lit up, and a bunch of paid mural gigs have resulted, all before their 21st birthdays. We welcome these charming truth tellers and invite you to enter Swan Dive, the mural.
