The "Save the Boards to Memorialize the Movement" exhibit is displayed at Phelps Park, adjacent to George Floyd Square in Minneapolis. This exhibition showcases 87 of the nearly one thousand plywood boards that were collected and preserved. These boards, originally used as protective coverings during protests and unrest following the murder of George Floyd in 2020, have been transformed into a memorial.
