Gabriella "Gabi" Torres has an inspiring story jam-packed with public art and community placemaking. As an artist, she has sold paintings across the globe, building a solid following in the local art scene. She is passionate about transforming the existing canvasses scattered throughout town into jaw-dropping displays of creativity.
Most notably, her Paint it Back project in partnership with Chris Shannon took a former auto sales building in the north end of Clinton and converted the dilapidated facade into a web of visual awesomeness! As a result of adjusting the blighted presence of an old building into a piece of art, the city has noticed a reduction in crime due to increased foot traffic.
Gabi is an expert in placemaking and will share her desire to further impact the lives of community members and visitors by turning the ordinary into extraordinary.
Thank you to Gabi for allowing us to interview her, share her successes, and learn some tips and tactics that can be leveraged to transform any community!
