Save the Boards to Memorialize The Movement exhibit.

The "Save the Boards to Memorialize the Movement" exhibit is displayed at Phelps Park in Minneapolis, adjacent to George Floyd Square. The exhibition features 87 of the nearly 1,000 salvaged boards that were part of the protests and uprisings following the murder of George Floyd in 2020. These boards, often adorned with art and messages of solidarity, serve as a collective memorial to the movement for racial justice.
