An Overview of Mural Laws in Los Angeles: Presented by SPARC and California Lawyers for the Arts

Program: The Los Angeles City Council recently passed a city-wide ordinance ending a decade-long “mural moratorium.” Join California Lawyers for the Arts and the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC) for an educational workshop presented by attorney Eric Bjorgum, Esq. and Carlos Rogel of SPARC to find out more about how the new law works, what it changes, and how it fits into the history of mural creation in the city. The presentation will include an explanation of the specific provisions of the new mural law as well as an overview of other laws that affect the creation of murals in Los Angeles. The workshop will also address some of the new issues that have arisen since the new mural ordinance took effect as well as an analysis of the state of mural art in Los Angeles before, during and after the “mural moratorium.”
