Population and Geography Served

We will be principally serving everybody, with an emphasis on Youth & those economically disadvantaged. As an example, our downtown “Outdoor Art Gallery with Murals” Project will have no admission charge & we will supply books describing each Mural to School Groups. Each Mural will have hidden items that the children will have to look for, making it fun for them to participate. We will also seek funding to help those schools located in materially disadvantaged areas, as defined by the Federal Dept. of Housing & Development (HUD), to be able to bus their classes to Marlborough & work with our school dep’t. to feed them a good lunch!! Our main geographic area that we will be serving, will be that within a 2 hour driving distance of Marlborough, with a secondary area being the remainder of New England and lastly the rest of the World (Tourists visiting the Boston, Massachusetts & New England area).
