See a Movie and a Mural at Newark Screens

Local Newark artist Suliman Onque has done it again, this time creating a mural at Newark Screens with his cousin Ali Montana highlighting two of this year’s biggest movies, Disney’s live-action remake of The Little Mermaid, and Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse. The murals showcase both movies’ main characters—Ariel and Miles Morales, respectively—and the artists’ depictions of the background images of the movies. Don’t forget to check out the work as you are heading in to see your favorite movie!

Onque is a Newark art legend, having created and collaborated on murals throughout the city, including “Phoenix Rise,” located in the main entrance of University High School (collaboration with Cha Che King); and the “ABOLISH WHITE SUPREMACY” street mural, with Yendor Production, Newark Arts, and the City of Newark, Rutgers Newark and a host of artists and community volunteers.
