Tiles For America is located at Mulry Square @ Greenwich Avenue & 7th Avenue South. The tiles are messages of inspiration and remembrance.
After the tragic events of September 11, 2001, ceramic studios around the world joined together to offer a creative outlet to the people of our nation.
Thousands of tiles, reflecting patriotism, heroes, courage, unity, poetry, and other positive themes arrived in NYC, and more continue to arrive. The “artists” are represented worldwide and have been families, children, schools, churches, scouts, and senior groups. Each tile reflects the artists’ thoughts of sadness and hope in the face of this American tragedy and once again, shows that the American people willpull together in times of national disaster.
