Santa Rosa, CA
Santa Rosa's mural scene has grown significantly since the 2017 Tubbs Fire, with community healing, resilience, and Sonoma County's wine country landscapes becoming recurring themes in public artworks throughout Railroad Square and the SOFA Arts District. The city's diverse Latino community has added a strong thread of Chicano muralism, while Railroad Square's converted warehouses provide ideal canvases for large-format contemporary works.
