DESCRIPTION: 25-foot high by 19-foot wide acrylic paint mural, with dedication section
This park mural is part of the LA vs. Hate: Summer of Solidarity public art series celebrating the diversity of Los Angeles communities. The mural depicts "a tableau of people, movements and issues of significance to the LGBTQ+ and greater community":
“The mural presents two large figures forming an embrace at a distance, reflecting the community connection and support for one another,” explained Arrellano. “This embrace, a universally recognized symbol of care and affection, allows the viewer to immediately understand the larger implications of the work. The figures create vignettes of symbolic stories based on community anecdotes and values that represent care, solidarity, and showing up for one another. The mural includes depictions of people marching and celebrating together, as well as historic landmarks, movements and resources for the LGBTQ+ community in Long Beach.” - Love vs. Hate Organization
