Well done Penn State Students!

Two years in the making, and look at the result!

State University recently unveiled a mending wall on campus, sparked by the Mending Walls documentary that and personally brought there.

Students like Ko and Milo got fired up to rework the entire process, engaging students in several ‘talk and paint’ sessions across campus— not just painting a wall!

Our work on "Mending Walls: The Documentary" won an Emmy on Saturday night! Thank you to VPM for their continued partnership and to all the artists that told their stories to our cameras. AND - thanks to the communities around the country who continue to support and sustain Mending Walls RVA.

Here's our moment at the Capital Emmys. We were all taking some deserved time off so we couldn't collect it in person, but it allowed for a longer clip from the doc shown to the audience (Bonus!).
