Philadelphia Honors Quinta Brunson with Key to the City, Mural at Alma Mater
- Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker honored Quinta Brunson with a key to the city during a ceremony on Wednesday at Andrew Hamilton School.
- The event followed Brunson’s connection to the school, which inspired her show 'Abbott Elementary' and motivated a mural dedication there.
- The mural named 'Blooming Features' was painted by artist Athena Scott, who collaborated with Quinta Brunson as well as students and staff from Hamilton School to create vibrant portraits of actual members of the school community.
- Brunson rejected an ABC mock-up featuring show actors, favoring community members instead, saying, "You need to see you on the wall" and adding, "that's how you know there is a future."
- The ceremony and mural highlight public education's value and Philadelphia's extensive public art, which Jane Golden noted strikes visitors and represents equity in all neighborhoods.
