Vanessa is an artist and performer, determined to make her neighborhood of Homewood a safer place, especially for the children.
It began a few years ago on her front porch where Vanessa German did her art. She would paint and sculpt, and kids would gather around after school, watching and participating. In this violence-stricken area, it became a safe haven for them.
