Join Councilmember Steve Leal as we dedicate the Cesar Chavez Labor Bridge this Friday at 10:30!

Come and share a very special time as we dedicate the Cesar Chavez Labor Bridge. This has been a public art project over 7 years in the making. The theme was generated by Councilman Steve Leal and many Southside neighbors. The imagery was primarily created by artists Alex Garza and Josh Sarantitis, along with significant neighborhood input. We feel that this will become known as one of the most important pieces of public art in the Western United States. This public art project exemplifies one of the great stories of how people used their civil rights to improve their conditions and change the world. We thought it appropriate that this project be on a bridge, as our civil rights are a bridge to justice. Please come. There will be food, music and a lot of your friends. Friday, April 4, 10:30am at the Southeast Corner of 6th & 1-10. (Parking available at 3300 S. 6th Avenue in the old Southgate Shopping Center)
