was commissioned to design, paint and install a mural depicting the
diverse multi-ethnic and multi-cultural characteristics of the
Hilltop community in Tacoma.

a key attraction within this neighborhood.
The artwork contributed by local artist as well as pictures of
historical buildings, news clippings, from books and magazines were
arranged to meld the multi-cultural representations into a single,
unified exhibition.
Along with painted wood embellishments, the vinyl canvas makes this mural
mobile in event of relocation or reconstruction. This mural
expresses Martin Luther King JR’s (Painted mono-chromatically)
over seeing Tacoma as it is
today; which may be what Martin Luther King Jr. could have
envisioned. Size: 12’H x 40’ |
