The goal of the Audubon Mural Project is to create murals of over 300 North American birds, mainly in the northern Manhattan neighborhoods of Hamilton and Washington Heights where John James Audubon spent the last 10 years of his life. We will see about 40 murals of birds which have all been identified at being threatened by climate change. We will also visit Audubon’s impressive gravesite in the Trinity Church Cemetery. Because the mural artists have license to represent the birds in any way that they choose to, there is great variation in the styles of painting. And the murals range from lovely panels that fill a window frame to spectacular works covering the entire side of a building.
