The BLM Mural Project – Tacoma is a group of Black visual, multimedia, photography and interdisciplinary artists from Tacoma, Washington working together to create a Black Lives Matter mural. Visit the BLM Mural Project – Tacoma website for more information and additional resources.

This project is funded by the City of Tacoma and the Tacoma Art Museum through Tacoma Creates, in partnership with the Human Rights Commission’s Racial Justice and Equity Committee.

The reason for creating this mural is to express solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement while celebrating the achievements and contributions of African Americans throughout history.

The BLM Mural Project Tacoma is a months-long effort to recognize the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and the local Black community. The purpose of the mural is to celebrate the achievements and contributions of African Americans throughout history. The handprints will decorate a quilt within the mural design, communicating that we’re all part of the fabric working toward racial equality together.
