The Brainerd Community Center sits behind two prominent destinations, Brainerd High School and the Brainerd Complex, which feature tennis courts and a garden closest to the area's main artery of North Moore Road. One can access the Center by traveling around the tennis courts to the tucked away Center furthest from North Moore Road.

The City of Chattanooga and the Woodmore Manor Neighborhood Association transformed a large existing “silo” architectural feature on the Center with a mural informed by the community’s input through  community engagement opportunities facilitated by a Creative Strategist. Creative Strategists are artists (or artist teams) who collaborate with City government by  applying their creative process as a community engagement strategy in order to help guide neighborhood empowerment through public art.

Activities included creating a Facebook  group page specific to the vision building of the mural, and distributing a virtual and hard copy survey asking area residents open-ended questions to gauge what aspect of the community they would like to see reflected in the mural; their perception of public art, how it may play a role in building their community, and the like. Creative Strategist, Erika Roberts of Velvet Poetry Productions, also conducted online engagement sessions with area elementary and middle school children utilizing prompts. Roberts and commissioned mural artist, Brandon Donahue, also collaborated on an activity packet and made it available online, as well as in art packets distributed to area students.
