The idea of balance in the landscape is important to this project. The lessons that we have to learn from the native population here and what they remember of it – the remainder of what used to be a very thriving population in all of California – was one of balance. They did not use the landscape. They lived in it, lived with it, and respected it”

Slide to see the future exterior.
A mural by Oscar Morales and Vladimir Cuevas, selected in an international competition, combines two mural projects into one image to depict the Canal’s history, immigration, cultures, and future. It will enliven the front exterior of the Albert J. Boro Community Center and Pickleweed Park/Library – the final station of the People of the Canal timeline.
