“READ MORE BOOKS” is a collaboration with 13 artists. Each letter measures 7ft x 4ft, and features imagery relating to 13 different famous novels. The 85 ft mural is located directly across from the Stapleton Public Library and Historic Tappen Park, in Staten Island. At the mural unveiling, Projectivity partnered with ACS and NYPL, giving away book bags from back to school, and showcasing copies of all the books featured in the mural.
