EXAMPLE 1: Solidarity Mural in Dubuque, IA
In 2020 the City of Dubuque, IA, was approached by Voices Productions and a local artist Shelby Fry to create the Solidarity Mural as a visual embodiment of unity and message of inclusiveness. City Manager, Michael C. Van Milligen approved the design for implementation on the East side of Five Flags Civic Center on Main Street in downtown Dubuque, providing the opportunity for that visual statement to be placed on a public building, demonstrating the City's support for Black Lives Matter and ongoing effort to inspire a change in the mindset of what Dubuque is and can be.
A full description of the mural, it's creation, and it's meaning can be find at this link to the city of Duquque website.
