View six murals painted by Indianapolis artists and buisness owners in a new exhibit at the Indiana State Museum.
Like much of the nation, Indianapolis experienced days of protests in June 2020. Artists stepped up to quickly express their frustrations and hopes. Now, one year later, the Indiana State Museum, Arts Council of Indianapolis and the Indianapolis Public Library are teaming up to present exhibitions of murals painted by these artists after the protests, and hold discussions designed to increase community understanding of what occurred and why.
Visit Legacy Theater on level one from June 5 to Sept. 6, 2021, to see the six murals painted by Indianapolis artists and business owners. This exhibit is free to the public.
The murals are: Blkkk Lives Don’t Matter by Mechi Shakur (Demetrius Green); Take a Stand by Elijah Stephen (Elijah Norwood) and Gentry Parker; 8:46 by Gary Gee; We the People by Gary Gee; Silver in the City panels by store staff; and a mural that appeared at The Flying Cupcake created by family and friends of the store.
