This Memorial Day weekend, murals took over Merced.
Murals are in the works as part of the downtown Fresno Neighborhood Beautification and Cleanup Project.
The next time you drive through the city of Merced, you might notice eye-catching art all around.
A mural is being installed at a new Catholic church currently under construction in the South Valley.
Hanford's Cynthia Velazquez created the unique piece that features a Latino boy juggling a soccer ball while bluejays fly around him.
The mural is expected to enhance the community while construction is underway behind the artwork.
