A productive weekend at Fullerton & Milwaukee!

AnySquared and ABC (Artistic Bombing Crew) repaired the Limit community/kids mural on Milwaukee with the help of Brian Herrera from the Aspira High School Mural Club. We will be doing a clean-up around the area this Sunday, April 13. As we maintain the mural, will also be setting up dates in the warmer weather for the community to come out and paint again! If you see ABC or AnySquared out there – come visit!

Keep looking: ABC changed up their Project Logan Mural (on the Fullerton side) and are set to continue to change it all season!
