Ohio City | Community Organizing
Michael Mishaga is an artist, activist, community organizer, and urban ecologist. His life revolves around working with the people and neighborhoods of the City of Cleveland and designing and managing programs in the arts and community building. He is working in the Clark-Fulton Neighborhood on the Newark Creek Court/Hyde Court Mural Projects and Street Painting, a project creating a place of acceptance and appreciation to express oneself creatively and form relationships. This is an ongoing neighborhood placemaking event with ‘City Repair Artivism Cleveland Style’. He also volunteers at Kentucky Garden as garden steward and operations manager with the goal of creating a safe and stress free environment and preserving that land as the neighborhood commons. He believes that working together we will shape and form our neighborhoods and it is working together with our hands, over time, we discover ourselves and others.
