photos: in Lamont

From intersection of Weedpatch Hwy and DiGiorgio Rd, looking South East.

One section of community mural on Segrue Rd in Lamont.  Young people have planned the content and are painting it, organized through the Delores Huerta Foundation.

Jorge, a local muralist is working on a commission around the block from this.  He told us that someone started this painting on a Lamont residential wall.  When questioning police learned the art work was unpermitted, the artist abandoned the Virgin without finishing her face and hands.  Within days though, people brought her flowers and offerings and prayers.
