Community Mural ‘We All Belong’

In honor of Conexión Américas’ 20th anniversary we commissioned a community art mural from the local artist, Ruben Torres, to be painted on the outer wall of Casa Azafrán, facing Casa Azafrán park. While commissioned by Conexión Américas, it is important for us that this mural represents the work of all of our partners and the diverse communities that Casa Azafrán welcomes.

The ‘We All Belong’ mural is made possible thanks to the support of our 20th anniversary sponsors, HCA Healthcare/TriStar Health, Ingram Charities, Nashville Soccer Club, Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority, Pinnacle Financial Partners, and Culture Shift Team!
