The Precita Park Bathroom Tile Mosaic Mural is FINISHED!!!!
​Thank you all so much for the loving support from the community and participants from Precita Valley and Bernal Heights!
    We will be hosting a unveiling ceremony July 18 from 12pm to 1pm. Please join us at Precita Park to celebrate the completion of the Tile Mosaic Mural and to kick off the 30th Annual Urban Youth Arts Festival.
The first few tiles to be installed...
Precita Eyes Muralists collaborated with Precita Valley Neighborhood group to engage community members in designing individual tiles that represented things that were important to them: their families, friends, pets, and above all their love for this park and their neighborhoods.
One Tile at a Time...
After gridding the tile spaces and numbering the grid, Precita Eyes carefully adhered the painted tiles to the wall, making sure each tile is aligned with each other. This process took several hours. We loved all of the visitors who came by: participants, park goers, and many, many curious children.
Finishing details...
The next day we carefully covered in the grout lines with grout, permanently attaching the tile mosaic to the side of the Precita Park Restroom. The cohesive design of the butterfly became very apparent.
Behold the Mosaic!
We will be hosting a unveiling ceremony July 18 from 12pm to 1pm. Please join us at Precita Park to celebrate the completion of the Tile Mosaic Mural and to kick off the 30th Annual Urban Youth Arts Festival.
