(31/92) "Keep it Clean for the Next Generation" by Sandra Jones Campbell and Laguna College of Art & Design Students
This work showcases the diverse people that populate downtown Laguna as they head to the beach. While working with the students, Sandra was quoted saying, "Don't be afraid in the art world. A lot of people are worried about success and paying their bills. As long as you follow your bliss, the rest will come".
.
This mural is located in an alley that @hennesseys_lagunabeach has taken over for outdoor seating. They have done a fabulous job improving it with live music and table service.
.
This mural is on my free self guided Downtown Walk. Go to my website to print out the free map.
