Are they doing that by hand? I would have expected stencils for the text at least.

Apparently they rented the wall for a certain time period ..... it was expensive, $5000 (I think) so they raised money for it.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
