IRVING, TX – Visitors attending upcoming events at Heritage Park in Downtown Irving will notice something new: a colorful display of hand-painted trash cans created by young artists from Unbounded Art, a student-led nonprofit organization based in Dallas.
The project transforms ordinary park fixtures into canvases for creativity, with several designs inspired by Van Gogh’s Sunflowers and Starry Night. The goal is to encourage the community to see beauty in unexpected places while giving student artists an opportunity to express their talent and imagination.
The artwork will be on display during the following events at Heritage Park, 217 S. Main St.:
-
Music on Main: Oct. 24 | 6 to 9 p.m.
-
Texas Arbor Day: Nov. 8 | 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
Unbounded Art is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded by three students: Adam Zhang, a freshman at St. Mark’s School of Texas; Aiden Ji, an eighth grader at St. Mark’s; and Cecilia Zhang, an eighth grader at The Hockaday School. Their mission is to make classical art accessible to underserved communities and to inspire creativity among youth.
The organization welcomes volunteers aged 18 and younger to participate in future art projects. Supporters can also help by donating or spreading awareness of their work.
