You may remember last year during the finals days of Deitch Projects, Shepard Fairey (featuredheld his solo exhibition May Day in New York. What you may not have seen was a special community mural project he created with the Citykids Foundation. AM was on hand to capture Shepard and his crew engaging intercity youths to create a series of twelve 8 x 4 foot panels as part of the A Positive Thought Cannot Be Denied project.

From July 6th to July 18th, the Wooster Street Social Club of NY Ink fame (covered) will be hosting a special viewing of these completed murals. Also, a limited edition Obey print of the mural She’s Not a Planet, She is One of Us signed by Shepard will be released this Saturday, July 9th at 3 pm. Two hundred will be sold at the gallery space and one hundred more will be sold online here.

Check out the mural building process after the jump.
