People waited in long lines to give blood, helped comfort those needing it, organized vigils, wrote tribute songs, and made art.

Around the Orlando area, over a dozen murals and other works of art grace businesses and other venues.

Some pay tribute to the victims, some share messages of love, others remind Orlando and its citizens that they are strong and united in the face of hate.

See the map below to check out the murals we found in the area.
