The beginnings of the Barrio Beautification Effect was established with youth in Lincoln Heights in 2017. Youth in this school site worked with artists Jose "Crism" Lopez, Sen, and Zoxer to project the school's core values through a graffiti style mural. The youth that participated in this project felt like they made history at the school because the message that they left behind will live on after they graduated.
