39 ft x 11 ftAbout this mural:
Honoring the legacy of local hero and community member, Felix Diaz This mural was part of a two mural location series for “Create Together,” a four-day art event organized and sponsored by non-profit, Lifting Our Stories. In this project, I was the designer and muralist. I’ve created the design through research to honor local hero, Felix Diaz. The design was presented to the local community for feedback. During a two-day event, we invited community members to participate in painting. I’ve finished the installation which included finishing, details, and cleaning up the mural to bring it to a professional level. This project is funded in part by the California Arts Council, a state agency and Creative Corps Inland SoCal Grant.
