The Jingletown Arts, Business and Community group has completed two storm drain murals for the Storm Drain Mural Project funded by the Keep Oakland Beautiful Small Grants Program. Both projects were designed and led by Jill McLennan. The first mural, Estuary Fish, was painted by 50 eighth-graders from Lazear Charter Academy.
The second mural, Community Quilt, was designed in collaboration with a local senior quilt maker, and painted by neighborhood volunteers during the MLK service day in Jingletown on Monday January 21, 2019. Both murals have brought awareness to the drains and volunteers to keep them clean as well as appreciation for the beautification of the neighborhood. Learn more about Small Grants and apply for one!
