New Tinner Hill Mural in Falls Church Celebrated
Dedication of the Tinner Hill Mural
Location: The mural is at 7139 Lee Highway, Falls Church, VA 22046.
About the Mural:
The Tinner Hill area holds a significant place in the history of Falls Church. To honor the contributions of this vibrant community and its leaders, the Tinner Hill Heritage Foundation commissioned a mural. Several talented artists submitted their designs, and the project was awarded to Arlington artist Bryan King. The mural features prominent figures such as Joseph Tinner and Dr. E. B. Henderson, who, along with other community members, fought against segregation. Their organization received the first rural charter of the NAACP, marking a pivotal moment in civil rights history.
