The Many Faces of Inglewood is a ceramic tile mural by Darby Park Summer Camp participants and artist Karen Koblitz. Youth sixteen and younger were asked to create illustrations of what Inglewood means to them. Koblitz guided the technical process while the youth developed content: their visions of their community. The hand-painted glazed tiles depict family, friendship, animals, and rainbows.
Koblitz arranged the tiles into a rectangular panel permanently installed in the city’s Locust Street parking facility. This artwork was funded through an Inglewood Community Development Block Grant in a process led by Inglewood Cultural Arts.
