NoDAPL Mural Vandalism Repair

Please help support the #NoDAPL message through the arts.

Our Las Vegas community gathered in a national act of solidarity with Standing Rock on March 10th. Over 250 people came together in prayer. Our indigenous community danced, from Las Vegas Natives to Mexican Chinelos dancers from Morelos. We shared our culture and Water Protectors shared their stories from Oceti Sakowin Camp. Veterans came and posted their Marine's flag. The gathering was one of peace and love. Partially, what brought us together was a large mural by local artist, Gear Duran. He was so compelled by the struggle at Standing Rock that he started to paint this incredible art, with the help of Heather Hermann, PROBE, Bo Wiltse, Sril and other local artists. The message of the art is one of pride and hope for Native American people and allies.

Unfortunately, on the night of our action the Native American faces were vandalized. Ugly graffiti tags covers the part of the wall that depicts Native American peoples. Now we're calling upon you, the community, to help us raise the funds needed to repair and restore the mural (paint, supplies, lift). We need your help to fix this act of hate.

Any overflow of funds will go towards the continued maintenance necessary to beautify our community.
