In the aftermath of George Floyd's tragic death by the hands of Minneapolis Police on May 25th, 2020, the city became a focal point for nationwide protests against police brutality and systemic racism. Amidst the unrest, plywood boards covering storefronts became canvases for artists, activists, and community members to express their grief, anger, and solidarity through murals and messages.

Memorialize the Movement (MTM) emerged as a living archive created in the wake of the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in 2020 dedicated to collecting, preserving, and activating the plywood protest murals that were created during the Minneapolis Uprising of 2020 and beyond. By providing space for youth, artists, and our Black, Indigenous, communities of color to heal, reflect, and express themselves creatively, MTM seeks to address the issues of police brutality, community safety, and representation for Black and Brown creatives and art conservators.
