Hello Precita Eyes Community and hopefully new friends!

For 30 years, Precita Eyes Muralists have been giving children and adults alike the opportunity to explore their spray art ambitions in the safety of Precita Park. Each 3rd Saturday of July, we set up temporary walls, supply all of the spray paint and materials, and give our community an space to perform on stage. We have loved keeping this tradition alive (since the 90s) and look forward to the Urban Youth Arts Festival every year.

But, but for our 30th Anniversary, we need your help. Last year, the grant that we have relied on to fund this event for years has changed their eligibility, disqualifying us. We were able to successfully run the event last year, but are struggling to find the funds this year.

Please help us by donating what you can. The funds we collect will go to the price of paying the park permit fee, renting a stage for our youth performers, renting a sound system, and renting a generator to power it.

All extra funds will first go to paying our youth performers on stage and doing spray art (for whom this will be their first professional gig), buying extra material, and – if we get an overwhelming wave of love and support – the creating of a commemorative T-Shirt.

This link will bring you to a document that not only explains how this event will be run, but will include a detailed budget of where the funds will go.
