Join the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department and Church of 8 Wheels for a community celebration for the recently completed resurfacing project and installation of a vibrant new ground mural at the legendary Skatin’ Place in Golden Gate Park. The 28-foot by 93-foot oval mural, painted over asphalt and located between 6th Avenue and JFK Drive, was created by Bay Area artist and longtime Golden Gate Park skater Aimee (Bruckner) Stevland. Utilizing a vibrant color palette of yellow, orange, red, teal, and purple asphalt acrylic paint, the innovative design—titled Psychedelic Golden Gate Skate—pays tribute to the park’s roller skating history, referencing the Golden Gate Bridge and featuring a roller skate in the center circle. The mural is a collaboration between the Recreation and Park Department and David Miles Jr., longtime skating advocate, Skatin’ Place steward, and founder of the famous Church of 8 Wheels. Lace up those skates and come out for a day of skating, music, dancing and more!
