March 18, 2015
To Whom It May Concern:
At our meeting of March 10, 2015, the Fine Arts Commission approved the proposal of San
Bernardino Generation Now for their project at Seccombe Lake Park which will take place on
April 18, 2015. The proposal is extremely well-planned, and almost fully funded by grants from
the Cal State, San Bernardino Office of Community Engagement and the South Coast Air
Quality Management District. Further in-kind support is through the City’s Parks and Recreation
Department. As of the date of our meeting, the group was seeking further support from various
sources. The enthusiasm of the group for this is contagious, and is shown by the support they
have already received.
The project includes clean-up of the park, and the painting of several murals, which will
certainly aid in revitalizing this mid-city park. The murals will be the result of much planning
and coordination with city officials and other consultants. Involvement of both experienced and
apprentice muralists, including children of the neighborhood, is part of the project, along with
color coordination and major themes.
The Fine Arts Commission is pleased to support the Seccombe Lake Mural Project, as a way to
beautify the city, to attract visitors to the park, and to unite people from many backgrounds who
wish to show pride in this city.
Sincerely,
Dr. Dorothy Garcia, Chair
Fine Arts Commission
City of San Bernardino
