Telling Your Story Together: Data Murals

Created by youth from Groundwork Somerville, facilitated by Emily and Rahul Bhargava

“The numbers tell a story”

“Someone cared enough to do [the mural], and it benefits everyone”

“I’ve never made [an infographic], now I totally feel like I could. I’m inspired.”
