From 1982 to 1989, Haring was featured in more than 100 solo and group exhibitions and produced more than 50 public artworks in dozens of charities, hospitals, day care centers, and orphanages. He used his imagery during the last years of his life to speak about his illness and to generate activism and awareness about AIDS.In February 1989, Haring painted the "Todos Juntos Podemos Parar el SIDA" "(Together We Can Stop AIDS)" mural in the drug-infested Barrio Chino neighborhood of Barcelona to raise awareness of the AIDS epidemic. In May, Haring was invited by the Lesbian and Gay Community Services Center to create a work at their new location at 208 West 13th Street. He chose the second-floor men's room for his "Once Upon a Time..." mural. In June, he painted the mural "(All world)" on the rear wall of the convent of the Sant'Antonio Abate church in Pisa.
