Put on by 1xRun, the fellows behind Inner State Gallery, Murals in the Market is an intense and awesome public works project where artists from around the globe come to the D to put up beautiful murals around Eastern Market. It's cool having all of these artistic and smart people coming to the city for a week, but more amazing is the colorful art they leave behind. Want to get involved, but not an artist? Murals in the Market has an Adopt-a-Mural program where you can sponsor a mural done by your favorite artist.
