Converse Celebrates the Diversity, Duality and Vibrancy of Heritage Around the Globe by Expanding "Converse City Forests" Project to Celebrate Local Roots

This autumn, Converse is expanded its "Converse City Forests" campaign around the globe, celebrating and highlighting the importance of cultural roots through sustainable art. The street art campaign, which first launched in August 2019, is a celebration of creatives and an artistic medium for social progress. The campaign ladders up to the brand's vision of creating with intent, championing ideas that accelerate progress, with an urgency and focus on where the world needs change.

Members of our global Converse All Stars community of creatives have partnered with Converse to paint murals in cities across the world using Graphenstone paint, which absorbs carbon dioxide* to clean the surrounding air. Each mural celebrates the cultural roots of the country and its people, through the vision of the artists.

Through the vision of local creatives, Converse believes that self-expression and art have the power to reflect the current times, provoke dialogue, and build bridges between us. As cities reopen and recover, the hope is that these murals can be a bright spot: provoking dialogue on the role art plays in our daily lives and on the streets, and reflecting a more sustainable and equitable future through the messages from local young creatives.
