Mural Opportunity in New York
Iryna Zarutska Memorial Murals
The Iryna Zarutska Memorial Mural Project honors a young Ukrainian woman who was tragically killed in Charlotte after fleeing the war in Ukraine.
We're creating large-scale photorealistic memorial murals across major US cities. These murals serve as a lasting tribute to Iryna and raise awareness about violent crime and the need for accountability in our justice system.
This is an apolitical project focused on human dignity and community safety - a reminder that behind every headline is a real person whose life mattered, and that our communities must do better to protect vulnerable people.
