Memorial Park Mural

Roberto Del Hoyo, 2011

Roberto Del Hoyo painted the 5-sided pavement art mural located at Memorial Park Stage in Memorial Park. The stage was erected in 1957 under Mayor Ogden Markel. The mural was commissioned by the city in 2011. The iconography used in the Memorial Park Mural can be described as a combination of community, unity, and religious and spiritual imagery. Some of the mural’s images represent culture, education and unity- musical instruments, a graduation cap, a pencil, etc. The colors red, white, and blue are the primary palate.
