Welcome to the UCLA Cesar Chavez Digital Mural Lab at SPARC

        Every Fall and Winter a UCLA course is offered by SPARC's Founder and Muralist Professor Baca in the UCLA/SPARC Cesar Chavez Digital Mural/Lab located at SPARC. This course in muralism is both a theory and studio course which produces a public artwork for installation in a community setting. Undergraduate and graduate students can enroll at UCLA's World Arts and Culture Department, Fine Arts Department, or the Cesar Chavez Center for Interdisciplinary Studies for the course. In a 20 week period (two quarter sequence) students learn to work in computer graphic programs and combined traditional mural techniques to amplify community voice in a work for permanent installation. Non UCLA students can seek enrollment through UCLA extension.
