2023 HDAE Arts & Culture Mural Project: Community

The San Miguel Residence Hall Stage Mural was conceived in 2014 by the Residential Housing Association (RHA). Their vision was to provide a medium to showcase student art in the community. Andrea Vargas, a UCSB alumna and former housing staff member, worked in collaboration with RHA and Residential Operations to make it happen. She devised a concept to frame and display four murals that would be rotated out one by one each year. The mural project was assumed by the HDAE Arts & Culture Committee and in 2017 the Committee worked with Sydni Baker, a UCSB Alumna, to define four themes for the different sections: the environment, I love UCSB, community, and diversity. Grace Lindsay's submission was selected as the winner for 2022.
