p l a n t s ,

s c e n e r y
native
to
Northern
California.

mural
i n c l u d es
images of the
San
Bruno
Mountains,

11. Tree of Life
Designed by artist, Helen Cole Lew, in
collaboration with members from the Kids
& Art Foundation. The image is of an
elegant tree that stands in a field with
outstretched branches and the sun shining
in the background. Each inspiring and
whimsical, heartshaped flower was
created by the
children,
and
subsequently
painted onto the
tree by the artist.
The artist's vision
is that "The rising
sun offers hope
with each new day.
City of South
San Francisco
Hope for a cure.
Hope
to
end
childhood cancer."

HISTORY
Kalief Brown
Chestnut Ave & Mission Road
In 2012, city leaders saw a need for a community based art project to deter the
problem of unsightly graffiti and drab utility boxes.
