For the 30th Annual: Urban Youth Arts Festival, the theme is Presente 4EVER. We will be inviting 3 local OG crews to paint monumental scale pieces, 3 youth organizations will perform mural performances, and we'll have a stage for emerging youth perfomers to show off their talents.

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 ppa, to give our community a space to explore spray art. 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 changed their eligibility, disqualifying us due to our event being youth focused. 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 cost of paying the park permit fee, renting a stage for our youth performers, and renting a generator to power it. We hope to be able to give stipends out to the perfomers but currently averything is being done by volunteer work. Only the permit has been paid.

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