The San Diego River Park Foundation is always looking for ways to reconnect people with the River. Our San Diego River Murals are a way for us to raise awareness about our beautiful namesake river through art.
The Mural Projects are sponsored by our Corporate Partners. Thank you!
Occasionally our murals get damaged by graffiti. If you would like to volunteer for our graffiti response team, please contact Richard at the River Park Foundation office. Thanks!
