According to the artist, Joel Bergner: “Inspired by true stories of domestic violence, this mural depicts a woman and child’s journey from a painful past to a brighter tomorrow with a myriad of support along the way. In partnership with the District Alliance for Safe Housing, which provides safe housing for women and their children.”
