PLAY ·2023 Grants ChallengeGreat Wall of Los Angeles Expansion
The Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC) will utilize LA2050 grant funds to expand the Great Wall of Los Angeles, one of the largest murals in the world depicting historical figures and events of culturally diverse and marginalized communities. The Great Wall is currently a half-mile long, public art work, located in the Tujunga Flood Control Channel in North Hollywood. Artists and students will add a half-mile length to the wall with images of the ongoing struggles and achievements of BIPOC communities from the 1960s through 2020.
