Looking for something to do this weekend? Why not go on a scavenger hunt and check out DC’s 51 murals in support of statehood. DPW’s MuralsDC program completed 51 murals in a week, beginning on Juneteenth (June 19), leading up to the District’s first statehood vote in over 20 years on June 26. MuralsDC reached out to local businesses and government agencies and identified over a dozen walls so artists paint murals promoting messages of statehood, social justice and human rights in every ward of the city. To achieve the herculean feat of completing 51 projects in seven days, most walls were painted with multiple murals, turning several alleys into walkthrough art galleries. Get the location for each and check them all out in person or virtually by visiting: https://www.dropbox.com/s/poi36spn76tqjgn/51%20Murals_v5.6%20fix.mp4?dl=0
