Statement of Concept
Our mission is to bring a sense of commemoration, joy, and movement to the LA-5 Plaza through the creation of an inclusive space that honors the diverse CSULB community and the Tongva Gabrielino people. The redesign of the plaza will include a large rope sculpture, a mural representing the Tongva Gabrielino people of Puvungna, native plant landscaping, local artworks from the CSULB population and an artistic process that will include representatives from CSULB and Long Beach’s diverse communities.
