The murals reflect themes deeply tied to the region, including farmworker heritage, immigration stories, Indigenous and Latino culture, social justice, and desert life. Artists such as Armando Lerma, El Mac, Lapiztola, and others have contributed works that honor labor, resilience, and community pride. Beyond their visual impact, the murals serve an educational purpose, offering residents and visitors insight into the city’s history and lived experiences. Today, self-guided mural walks allow visitors to explore the artwork on foot, making the project both a cultural landmark and a tool for local revitalization.
