Her attraction to public arts led to her first foray in the field in 1990. Commissioned by the MTA for their inaugural project, Creative Stations Program, directed by Sandra Bloodworth, Carey worked with 15 young artists to make 200 square feet of murals at Yankee Stadium Subway Station. This work led to her current position as Visual Arts Director for the Point CDC, in Hunts Point in the South Bronx: an assets-based community arts center that combines arts learning with a complex array of vibrant and sophisticated actions that combine the public arts with environmental and social justice.
