Growing Home

Growing Home is a mural honoring the legacy of Mission District muralism across generations. The central figure, Lulu, a third-generation Mission girl and daughter of muralist Lucia Ippolito and granddaughter of renowned artist Juana Alicia, holds a pot containing a small Mission house and Mission blue butterflies—symbols of care, community, and resilience. Sunflowers, California poppies, and red-tailed hawk feathers reference longevity, renewal, and the artistic lineage guiding future generations.
