MCLA maintains a FREE database of Los Angeles' Mural History linking artists, murals and neighborhoods. The foundation of this database was shaped by Robin Dunitz' book "Street Gallery", the first true compilation of Los Angeles public murals.

To email your submissions, please send high resolution digital images along with the name of artist(s), location, year size and medium to: muralconservancyLA@gmail.com
