Community Paint Day!

Well over 75 people participated in the Barrio Centro Community Paint Day on Sat. April 2 marking a colorful start to our mural project.


Lunch time!

Paint Day was a huge success with food, music, and of course lots of paint. We were really happy to have been joined by so many neighbors and local leaders including Congressman Raul Grijalva.
