Creative Greensboro Annual Report 2024-25

Connecting Communities with Creativity Bringing Art Close to Home in East White Oak

Creative Greensboro’s Neighborhood Arts program has illuminated the purpose of the 109-year-old East White Oak Community Center. The mural at Revolution Park, the creation of the studio space at our center, and the other experiences that artist Chuck Johnson provided on behalf of the EWOCC are influencing people. We’re seeing more people inspired by East White Oak’s history to affect the communities where they live, learn, or lead.

Creative Greensboro supports placemaking and placekeeping through Downtown Arts and Neighborhood Programming. Through Neighborhood Arts: Curated Programs, artist Chuck Johnson (pictured) created a mural, signage, and an art studio at Revolution Park and the East White Oak Community Center (EWOCC) to honor the neighborhood’s history.
