After you go #VOTE today, you should drive by the collaborative anti-violence mural that our amazing youth completed this past weekend! The mural is on the nort...h side of The Landing Mall on 63rd and Troost, and was lead by our art instructor, @chicosierra, who is also known for his powerful murals throughout the city. We love seeing our youth use their voices, even if they aren't of age to vote just yet! #Mural #KansasCity #YouthAmbassadorsKC #KCMO #chicosierra #KansasCityMurals #KansasCityArtist #YoungArtists #WhenWillItStop #StoptheViolence #ActAgainst Violence #YourVoiceMatters #Vote2020 #YouthAdvocacy #KCyouth #SpeakUp #YouthVoiceMatters

Promote the VOTE was a creative and fun event that engaged members from all over the community. What a great way to bring families and peers together to encourage the importance of voting!! #VoteKC #YouthAmbassadorsKC
