You can spot our mural by American contemporary artist and activist, Shepard Fairey facing west towards the Santa Monica Pier. This cultural mosaic of Santa Monica features a woman representing strength and positivity, framed by a Pacific Ocean Park amusement park ticket from the 1950s, and nods to the skater / surfer history of the “Dog Town” days of Santa Monica from the 1970s.
