The mural contains representations of NIM’s more than 60 member organizations and features the interfaith groups’ motto “Service Faith Justice.” As is customary with the city’s murals, community members helped make many of the tiles that adorn the southern wall of NIM’s building at 7047 Germantown Ave. Painter Downie and mosiacist Woods worked with several groups to create the intricate and inclusive design.
