The Rays of Peace pavement traffic calming pavement art project is a testament to the peaceful connections shared among members of the greater Hyattsville community and a celebration of the positive energy radiating from Heurich Park. During Hyattsville’s 138th Anniversary Celebration the Graham Projects team invited the public to draw their own ideas for street art welcoming people to the park. Numerous residents drew symbols of peace and love. Inspired by residents’ drawings, Rays of Peace features a large peace sign anchoring the mural and concentric bands of teal, pink, red, and purple reverberating into the community.
Rays of Peace was designed by Liam Arbeiter with art direction from Graham Coreil-Allen.
