Original Judy Baca mural to be unveiled April 1

Los Angeles, Calif., March 28, 2022 – An original mural by renowned artist Judith Baca will be presented to the public by Associated Students UCLA (ASUCLA) as a permanent piece of the UCLA campus.  

The mural, “La Memoria de la Tierra: UCLA,” spans three 26-foot-long panels on the Wescom Student Terrace on Level 1 of UCLA’s Ackerman Union. The work depicts the history and memory of the land now occupied by UCLA’s campus, dating back to its origins as a home of Native peoples including the Gabrielino/Tongva tribes. It pays tribute to those who have shaped the UCLA community and imagines the future of the university as one in harmony with the original land. (Read more about the mural.) 

The event is free and open to the public. Please use the Eventbrite link to register.
