The 60th Anniversary mosaic mural is a community project with a message of Compassion, Peace, and Community. Its design is meant to compliment the location, speak symbolically to the message, and provide an element of interest for the public to enjoy, and be inspired to celebrate community relationships both in Oakland and between Oakland and our friends across the globe.
