Culturas, Sueños, y Sanación mural

In front of you lies the "Culturas, Sueños, y Sanación" mural. The American Friends Service Committee funded this mural and continues to fund 67 Sueños, a youth art collective. 67 Sueños, led by artist Amend TDK, unveiled their creation in October 2023. Like many other murals by this group, youth artists developed it from conception to completion. These youth artists come from undocumented or mixed-status families, and all live in the Fruitvale neighborhood. The theme of this mural is healing through connecting to one's cultural and ancestral practices. The youth artists also wanted to paint their hopes for the future of the neighborhood. Some of these hopes are that every culture is valuable, every dream is valuable, and every human is deserving of compassion, grace and love.
