First Community Mural Introduced in South Gate, CA
CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Kemper Auto, the specialty auto insurance brand of Kemper Corporation, has launched a new community mural initiative—The Kemper Auto Mural Project: Conectando Comunidades. In partnership with independent insurance agencies and local artists, the program will contribute cultural vibrancy, beauty and energy to communities through meaningful public artwork that helps connect and uplift neighborhoods.
“The Kemper Auto Mural Project was created out of a desire to not only connect more deeply with the communities we live and work in, but also to give something back to the neighborhoods that have supported us over the years,” said Matthew A. Hunton, President of Kemper Auto. “The program uses inspiring art—a universal language—to depict the diverse culture and passion of the community. We’re excited to work with our agency partners and honored to bring this vision to life.”
The project’s inaugural mural is in the city of South Gate in Los Angeles County and was created by LA-based artist Mr B Baby (Michelle Guerrero). The large, 600-square-foot mural was painted on an exterior wall of the Griffith Insurance Agency, a broker partner of Kemper Auto. The family-owned agency opened in 1998, filling a formerly unmet need to provide insurance information and products to the neighborhood’s Hispanic and Latino community.
