On Target With Investing

The latest mural from RETNA and EL MAC was a collaboration with Estevan Oriol and The Jonah Project, a non-profit, non-denominational Christian organization dedicated to aiding the homeless. Located on 6th and Crocker, in the heart of Skid Row, the mural serves as both a tribute to the community members and as a reminder of the perseverance of Skid Row’s homeless. This is the second collaboration with Estevan Oriol. In preparation for the mural they went to Skid Row to interact with various members of the community and photograph people that they felt embodied the spirit of Skid Row.
