This past July 18th, our community came together to unveil the Blueprint Community Mural as part of Wildheart Harrisburg's 10-Year Anniversary Block Party — and wow, it did not disappoint. 🖌️🎂

Months of planning, painting, and pouring our hearts into this wall culminated in a mural that truly reflects who we are as a neighborhood. Seeing it unveiled alongside a decade of Wildheart memories made the whole day feel extra special. 💙

🎊 What a celebration it was: 🖼️ The mural reveal — met with cheers, tears, and so much pride 🎧 A DJ who kept the energy going all day 💐 Free flowers given away to the community 🍔 Food trucks and local vendors 🎈 Activities for the whole family 🥳 Ten years of Wildheart, celebrated the way it deserved

Thank you to everyone who showed up, painted, danced, ate, and celebrated with us. Thank you Givemeallthecolor: murals+more. This mural stands as a reminder of what we can create when we come together — and we can't wait to see what the next 10 years bring.

⏳ 2 Days to Go: The Blueprint Mural Reveal! ⏳

The countdown is on, Allison Hill! In just two days, Blueprint is proud to join Wildheart Harrisburg in celebrating 10 years of Love the Hill — and unveiling a project close to our hearts: the Blueprint Mural! 🎨

This mural is a visual reminder of what the Allison Hill Blueprint Community stands for. Over an 18-month training period, our community leaders have worked to build local leadership, connect neighbors to regional planning and development, and bring public and private investment into this neighborhood. That work continues over a 10-year period, helping prioritize initiatives and turn plans into action.

You've heard us talk about the ABCs — Affordable Housing, Business Development & Support, and Connecting Resources. This mural is a piece of that vision made visible, right here in the heart of the neighborhood.

📅 Saturday, July 18th
📍 333 S 13th St
🕘 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
🎨 Mural Reveal at 1:00 PM

Come celebrate a decade of progress with us — and see the Blueprint vision come to life on the wall.

🙋 Volunteers are still needed to help make the day a success:
