Community Altar at the Duran Eastside Library

A striking painted altar featuring Latino, community and symbolic images is found near the entrance of the SPC Jesus S. Duran Eastside Library (4033 Chicago Ave Suite C, Riverside, CA 92507). The top is signed by Cynthia Huerta @lovewithjoyart who, with the sponsorship of the Riverside Art Museum and the James Irvine Foundation, worked with different community groups (indicated along the edge of altar top) to design and paint the community altar. The top illustrates the desirable qualities of Love, Family, trust and Respect. More information about the artist and her work can be found on her website
