Barrio Logan's Art Community

 

Barrio Logan is home to a thriving artists' community, with a rich cultural tradition

headlined by the district's crown jewel, Chicano Park. The park is listed on the

National Registry of Historic Places and is an iconic destination where visitors can

explore Chicano history in one of the largest collections of public murals in North

America. The art community in Barrio Logan has taken a nod from Chicano Park and

is home to numerous artist collectives, galleries and events including the monthly

Barrio Art Crawl.
