This dreamlike landscape mural of Guadalupe was designed by Samuel H. Duarte, Director of the Little House by the Park. It was designed as a community piece that encompasses the beauty of the City of Guadalupe’s assets, its people, and vibrancy. It was created for the May 9, 2015, Guadalupe Ciclovia Event when 3 miles of streets were closed off to cars and opened to pedestrians, cyclists, skateboarders, wheelchairs, and other alternate forms of transportation. The outline of this piece was placed at Tognazzini Park and painted by community members as they passed the Tognazzini stop within the 3-mile course. The final mural can be viewed at the Little House by the Park located at 4681 11th Street, Guadalupe, CA.

Los Amigos de Guadalupe was selected as the 2023 Nonprofit of the Year by Senator Monique Limón for our senate district! One of our most recent and meaningful collaborations with the Senator was her support for Guadalupe’s Royal Theater project. Senator Limón’s support was extremely instrumental in securing grant funding from the State of California to renovate and expand Guadalupe’s Historic Royal Theater!
This award is a real testament to our mission to bring community groups together with local civic leaders to help build resilience while also preserving the community of Guadalupe’s diverse culture and history.
Thank you all for your ongoing support for our organization and the community of Guadalupe!
