Sunday in the park with Creative Concord

CONCORD, CA (Oct. 19, 2023) — Following the success of the nine public art murals last year, Creative Concord and Local Edition Creative were back last week with a two-day Art and Music Jam. Local artists brought murals, music and spoken poetry to Todos Santos Park.

The creative spirit will continue through Jan. 8 with the temporary installation of giant sculptures in several locations around town.

The dramatic giant giraffe duo arrived at the Concord Historical Society last week. Larger than life Dahlia will face Todos Santos and a Metal Poppy will stand outside the Brenden Theatres.
