At a public meeting scheduled for 16 September, the Philadelphia Historical Commission discussed recommending that Keith Haring's 'We The Youth' (1987) be added to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places, with the full commission set to vote on 9 October. If approved, it would be the first outdoor mural in the self-styled Mural Capital of the World to receive the commission's protection, potentially setting a precedent for safeguarding public art. Painted at the height of Haring's career with 14 high school students on a residential building in the historically Black neighborhood of Point Breeze, 'We The Youth' is the only one of his collaborative murals to remain in its original location, having been restored twice over its 39-year life. The wall is co-owned by the Neighborhood Gardens Trust, which preserves Philadelphia community gardens, and OCF Realty, a real estate company associated with the neighborhood's rapid gentrification. Almost every key stakeholder has supported designation, including the Keith Haring Foundation, which said the move would preserve the mural as 'a unique cultural icon' while providing 'the necessary legal protections against its loss.'
