tHE GREat WaLL oF LoS aNGELES, a project as
ambitious in historical scope as in physical dimension,
was created and directed over three decades ago by
California Chicana muralist Judy Baca. The half-mile
long monument and landmark to the history of California from prehistoric times to the 1950s has recently
undergone a complete restoration-as a result of partnerships among many different private and nonprofi t
groups and the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC). Begun in 1976 and completed over fi ve

summers, the Great Wall employed over 400 youth and
their families from diverse, social and economic backgrounds working with artists, oral historians, ethnologists, scholars, and hundreds of community members.
Panels document such historical scenes and movements as Chinese railroad labor and World War II Japanese internments.
SPARC, in conjunction with the Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks, held the official opening
celebration for the newly restored mural last month.
