'Mural, Storage, and Studio of Oasis @ Bartlett Station' is reclaiming space for Roxbury artists, by Roxbury artists. The repurposed shipping container will have a mural honoring Nubian Square community leaders of the past and present painted on it. During the warmer months it will be a temporary artist studio for Roxbury area artists, and during the colder months it will store Radiant Jasmin's Artfully Designed Street Furniture that will be created for a mixed use physically distanced café/gathering space. Together, Radiant Jasmin, along with Roxbury resident artists Leah Barrows and Will Justice, are celebrating their heritage and reclaiming space for creativity to thrive in Nubian Square.
