*A 7,000-square-foot mural honoring Breonna Taylor has been created in a Maryland park.

A team composed of artists and volunteers completed the large-scale mural on Sunday, honoring the 26-year old Black woman who was fatally shot by police in her Louisville, Kentucky, apartment. Nearly 30 volunteers and 10 teaching artists finished the project in Annapolis’ Chambers park Sunday, WBAL-TV reported.

The artwork was a team effort by the Banneker-Douglass Museum, the Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture, and Future History Now, a youth organization that focuses on mural projects, news outlets reported.

Jeff Huntington, the founder of Future History Now, told WBAL-TV the artwork will help youth in Annapolis remember “this pivotal moment in history in a creative, positive and active way.”
