  • tile mosaic bear statue

    Representing the local indigenous people, this bear was designed in collaboration with members of the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians, Acjachemen Nation to honor their rich cultural heritage and strong connection to nature.

    Soft browns and greens evoke the colors of Southern California's native flora and fauna, and facets of everyday life are illustrated with plants, animals, and items such as feathers, shells, and beads. 
     
    Archaeological evidence shows an Acjachemen presence in this region dating back 10,000 years to the present day.
