There’s a brand new mural in Golden Gate Park.

For Indigenous Peoples Day, American Indian Cultural District in partnership with Illuminate, Paint the Void, and artist Rachel Znerold invited the community to join together for a poignant mural painting on JFK Drive in Golden Gate Park.

“This mural, “We Are on Native Land: Honoring the Original Stewards,” marks the entrance to Golden Gate Park at Stanyan. The intention of the mural is foster a collective understanding of being on and connected to the land and honors Indigenous animals, plants, and people as the first stewards of Golden Gate Park in Yelamu. The “We” reminds us that we are never alone in the park which was created to welcome and foster recreation and enjoyment from people of all Nations and to honor our unique and shared relationships, responsibility, and connection to the plants and animals in GGP.”
