In 1970, neighborhood residents worked with Anacostia Community Museum staff to transform the vacant lot next to the museum into People's Park. Painting murals on the walls and planting a community garden also helped to transform people’s lives. This is image is one of a handful from ACM's collection that will be featured in "The Utopia Project," which seeks to deconstruct the reasons why social change happens and will utilize the stories of everyday people in the ACM collection to help remind us that the ingredients for change are in each of us.
