ABC 7 Chicago came on site at our Healy Underpass in Hermosa to highlight the efforts by Green Star and local community members in honoring The Borinqueneers and larger history of the area.
In the fall of 2017, World is One News (WION), based out of Delhi, India, covered Green Star Movement's mission to change the urban canvas.
Congratulations to Kamelia Hristeva, Founder and CEO of Green Star Movement, who was named a "4-Star Chicagoan" and featured on ABC Chicago's Windy City LIVE!
In the clip, you'll see footage of our team and volunteers hard at work on site and an interview with Kamelia filmed in front of a live studio audience!
NBC came on site at our Metra underpass in Woodlawn in the summer of 2016 to learn more about Green Star Movement. We were featured on their Making a Difference segment!
Short video highlighting the value of building connections and beautifying spaces through the creation of public art.
In this episode of Community Forum, Green Star Movement artists and program participants discuss the process of creating bricolage murals, with particular focus on the CTA Red Line - Thorndale project. This program was produced by Chicago Access Network Television (CAN TV).
Filmed throughout the project at Chase Park in Ravenswood in 2012 and features interviews with participants, 47th Ward Alderman Ameya Pawar, and representatives of program partner After School Matters.
