WASHINGTON (FOX 5 DC) - If you were traveling in many parts of the District last year you may have seen any one of the 93 murals the P.A.I.N.T.S Institute and their artists created.

As we can continue to celebrate the story of African American history being told through murals, our last story focuses on the Executive Director John Chisholm and artist Keiona Clark.

Both were involved in the mural movement and along with other artists created pieces related to the pandemic, protests, and politics.
