Tucked beneath the sweeping concrete ramps of the San Diego–Coronado Bridge lies one of the most vibrant and meaningful outdoor art environments in the United States: Chicano Park. When I visited San Diego last summer, I made a stop at this remarkable site in the Varrio Logan neighborhood — and quickly realized that this wasn’t just a park. It’s a living canvas, a cultural landmark, and a powerful piece of community history all rolled into one.

While the park includes cultural centers and small museums, the true stars here are the murals — bold, colorful works of art that stretch across massive freeway pillars and underpasses. The scale alone is breathtaking. Towering concrete columns become storytelling surfaces filled with imagery celebrating heritage, identity, and resilience.

You might experience a tendency to panic and get distracted from your core beingness by everything that’s going on; especially when this assault on Democracy is designed to be overwhelming. Please remember that the most important thing is to take care of yourself — your mental health, specifically — and your loved ones, friends and neighbors. We really need to take care of each other now.
