Benson Mural Project

In collaboration with Leadership Omaha and Omaha By Design, Watie White Studio put together the Benson Mural Project to address specific hurdles to development in the Benson community in Omaha.

Designed as a project-based mentoring and professional development program, the Benson Mural Project paired working artists with a novice to design and implement a mural in the alleyways of Benson. Currently a thriving arts and restaurant district, the initial 7 murals have been followed by dozens more produced but he community in the decade since.
