More than a mural.

It’s not about the art, it is about the people who create it! The mural itself is intentionally simple and abstract so that it can be a platform for a powerful message. This is about more than just creating a mural, it is about creating an opportunity to unite the community under one message and providing a platform to work together.

mission

To promote awareness of Portland, Oregon and our Great Nation’s dark history of racism as well as provide opportunities to unite humanity.

purpose

To unify and empower all colors, cultures, and creeds by creating a mural serving as a beacon of hope and call-to-action to end racism in America.

vision

We want to help create a world where people live in harmony and with love and respect for each other. The future can be bright.

WHAT is an nft?

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are digital assets that represent physical or real-world objects like art, music, game items, and videos. Non-fungible means the item is unable to be replaced by another identical item, which makes each individual NFT unique.

NFTs are built using the same kind of programming as cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, which means each one exists on a blockchain and has a distributed public record of transactions. The NFT gets created and/or “minted” from digital objects that represent both tangible and intangible items, including:

Art
GIFS
Video and Sports Highlights
Collectibles
Virtual Avatars and Video Game Skins
Designer Sneakers
Music

Art has the power to:

Educate

Unite

Inspire

Get Involved

New ways to get involved are happening all the time! You can be an artist, a sponsor, a volunteer, a vendor, a performer, an educator, and on event day, you can help paint and potentially own the mural as we open up an NFT auction for those who would like to own a small piece of Portland.
