The Mission of this U.S. Art Tour is to connect with communities all over the country and share the positive experience of creativity in group settings. 

The Know Going Back U.S. Art Tour features a talented team composed of Tom Franco, Alan Chin, and a group of nomadic artists known as "The Grateful 8 to 10". As visual artists, our diverse expertise encompasses various mediums such as painted and ceramic murals, art installations, and community engagement initiatives.

Our most remarkable journey to date took place last November and December when we embarked on a cross-country adventure in a converted school bus. Throughout our travels, we had the privilege of visiting over 30 cities, engaging with local communities through art museums, galleries, art centers, and art fairs. This ongoing expedition has been an awe-inspiring experience, leaving a lasting impression wherever we go.
