An artist works on a Black Lives Matter mural on boarded storefronts along Lyndale Avenue in Uptown Minneapolis. This public art emerged during the Minneapolis Uprising, a period of widespread protests and civil unrest in 2020 following the murder of George Floyd. Mural art on temporary boards became a prominent form of expression, transforming commercial spaces into canvases for social and political messages. The 'Black Lives Matter, All Year Round' message reflects ongoing calls for racial justice, with artists often engaging with community members during their creation.
