Artist Scot Lefavor painted a mural contrasting Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh at 27th and Larimer streets in RiNo. “I definitely felt compelled to put the two side by side to show the striking difference between a calm and courageous woman and an angry and afraid man,” Lefavor says. “A judge should be fair and balanced, and it is clear that this ‘man’…has an agenda that is anti-equal rights.”

Denver's street-art craze continued in 2018, with city officials, developers, nonprofits and businesses all throwing money at artists to have them paint the walls of this town. The artists, in turn, have used murals to talk about social issues, from the Parkland school shooting to the Kavanaugh-Ford hearings. Here are some of our favorite pieces from this year.
