For means of inspiration, our class decided to take a trip to San Francisco in order to visit many of the city's known murals. Our first stop was at San Francisco's City College, where we had the privilege of seeing one of Diego Rivera's infamous murals entitled "Pan American Unity."
The class also had a blast with the giant Olmec head located just outside the Diego Rivera building. Not quite a mural, but fun to pose with regardless.
This spring quarter, the UC Davis Chicano Studies Mural Workshop class is designing and painting a mural at the Migrant Head Start Center located in Woodland. The center is a valuable resource for many of the migrant parents and Woodland community members that live in region. Our goal is to create a mural that reflects the Migrant Head Start Center in all of its aspects and what it brings to the community. We invite you to follow along as we share with you our mural creation experience.
