Elijah Milton’s Red Bull Arena Mural
The New York Red Bulls, along with Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey and Newark Arts, today unveiled a mural that will be located at Horizon Gate on the concourse level of Red Bull Arena.
The mural, painted by Essex County-based artist Elijah Minton, was designed to represent the Red Bulls loyal supporters, fans, culture, energy and passion for the game of soccer from our neighborhoods to the walls of Red Bull Arena. The goals of the mural reflect the attitudes and essence that connect and celebrate the key surrounding communities. The mural will proudly be on display and serve as one of the first touch points for fan’s match day experience.

I am truly grateful for this experience. Painting at Red Bulls arena after designing a poster for them earlier last year was like having a dream come true. The Red Bulls were great to work with and the Horizon [team] had some great ideas when editing the original design. I am most grateful for the fact that the Red Bulls did not alter my design and respected the artistic integrity of my design. I truly enjoyed the experience and look forward to working with them again.

This was so amazing! It was great not only actually being behind the scenes to watch this project come to fruition, but now to actually see the documentary and relive everything and to see how this is presented to the world! It has truly been a blessing to see. These beautiful murals have touched so many lives in this community, and I am sure they will continue to do so for years to come! It was such an honor to be a part of this and I’m so happy you all chose our center! Thank you so much to Yasmin, and to Matthew and Malcolm, who I would see outside the center late nights seven days a week helping to get the job done! Thank you PK! Thank you Rebecca!

We consulted with Newark Arts on the artistic vision for the Indigo Hotel. We get compliments on our artwork all the time and wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again.

Working with Newark Arts to enhance our senior facilities with art was an absolute pleasure and the results were more than we expected. I would highly recommend them to lead your next art project.
NEWARK ARTSOURCE IN ACTION
→ Commissioning Artists
Newark Arts was the artist liaison for Barclay’s partner Per Scholas, an IT tech training organization that is new to Newark.
Working with Newark Arts was one of the highlights of opening our new office in Newark. They listened to our vision and seamlessly facilitated the process of choosing an artist. We couldn’t be happier with the result – the murals by artist Kern Bruce are the heart of our new space, and are loved not just by our Newark team, but across the organization.
→ Beautifying Newark’s neighborhoods
Newark Arts brought together children from two arts organizations to brighten the PSEG Federal Square Switching Station with mosaics.
Four Corners Public Arts is an ongoing collaboration between the City via Invest Newark, the Newark Downtown District (NDD), Newark Arts and local property owners RBH Group and Paramount Asset that advocates for impact-driven, public art initiatives in and surrounding Broad St. and Market St. in Downtown Newark.
