When we were in San Francisco, we wandered around the Mission district where I got to eat some excellent tamales at Roosevelt’s Tamale Bar; take in the latino vibe and view some of the murals. My sister-in-law is business director with Precita Eyes Mural Arts Association:
“As an inner city, community-based mural arts organization, Precita Eyes Mural Arts Association seeks to enrich and beautify urban environments and educate communities locally and internationally about the process and the history of public community mural art. We maintain a deep commitment to collaborating with the various communities we serve. Our dedication to collaboration guarantees that creative work produced is accessible, both physically and conceptually, to the people whose lives it impacts. We intend to bring art into the daily lives of people through a process which enables them to reflect their particular concerns, joys and triumphs. “
Check out the colourful murals on the Precita Eyes website. They also do a great line in acrylic paints:
