A group of Egyptian young men and women are bringing color to Cairo’s metro stations through murals. The project, “Let’s Color It,” has made a splash with commuters by metro, the most popular and least expensive means of transportation in Egypt used by millions of citizens every day.
A youth association called Moubdioun (Arabic for "Innovators") first conceived of the idea in 2015 and then completed its first project in 2016 on the walls of Hikma Square in Heliopolis, Cairo. In January, Moubdioun contacted the Cairo Metro administration asking for permission to paint the city's metro stations. Cairo Metro agreed and provided paint and brushes and assigned a support team to assist.
