My Homecourt

My HomeCourt [MHC] is a nonprofit organization with the mission to foster community engagement through the revitalization of basketball courts and city parks facilitated by cutting-edge Contemporary art. With support from Providence College Galleries and various local and international partners, we commission internationally-recognized Contemporary artists to transform neglected courts and turn blank surfaces into colorful, living works of art. MHC is borne out of the idea that we all have our own homecourt; it is the place to play ball, build friendships, find safety and refuge from the chaos beyond the park fences. We believe that revitalizing basketball courts empowers the very people who utilize them. The renewed courts become public artworks and inspire the community, neighborhood and city alike.
