New York Edge commissioned Thrive Collective to imagine the future of urbanism for the MS 61 auditorium. Artist Vince Ballantine rose to the challenge with a three-panel, futuristic urban landscape design that also features the school’s Cougar mascot and school colors, green and yellow.
The auditorium is used by the school and also the community hosting dance competitions and other cultural events. The principal wanted artwork that also represented the Flatbush neighborhood and student body.
