This article has been edited to accurately reflect the artists of the Dolores Huerta mural.

Milwaukeeans know how to take advantage of the precious time when the weather’s nice — that includes muralists.

In this gallery, check out three impressive murals recently created by artists Isabel Castro, GirlMobb, Nyia Luna and Tia Richardson.

The mural was commissioned by Clarke Square Neighborhood Initiative and Cesar E. Chavez Drive Business Improvement District.

This musical mural by community artist Tia Richardson is one of four murals commissioned by Jack Daniels and Milwaukee Bucks and is located on the 2300 block of North Holton Avenue.

Artist Isabel Castro’s most recent mural adorns the Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers’ new National Ave. clinic.

The mural was commissioned by Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers.
