Mural Restoration at 46th and Foothill



On the way to the Fremont cafeteria, CRP artists stopped by the their 2009 mural on the abandoned building at 46th and Foothill. The mural, which was painted as a part of the summer 2009 Summer Youth Employment Project with the Lao Community Development Inc., had accumulated a few minor mosquito bite tags as part of an ongoing gang war in the neighborhood. Several local residents had requested that the mural be touched up and CRP artists have always insisted on doing their own mural maintenance. In 15 mins, the minor alterations were retouched. CRP will be doing several other mural restoration projects this summer. Stay tuned.
