On view for the first time in 25 years, the 65 foot long mural on canvas Hacia Al Norte (1991) captures the spirit of immigrant stories of Angelenos from Latin America, Asia, and Europe. Artists David Botello, Wayne Healy, and Rich Raya capture the richness of our community, a city shaped by events near and far.
The last day to view is July 28, 2024 at Central Library.
