DESCRIPTION:Coit Tower Mural Walk \nWith Peter O’Driscoll, Gray Brechin and Harvey 
 Smith.\nThe Coit Tower murals are a must see for everyone. In the past few 
 years there has been a growing community effort to defend the Coit tower 
 murals from leaking water and to stop the plans for privatization of the 
 site. This led to the critical renovation of the murals on their 80th 
 anniversary. They were being painted during the time of the 1934 general 
 strike in San Francisco. LaborFest will hold its annual guide tour of the 
 murals with Peter O’Driscoll, Gray Brechin and Harvey Smith. At the time 
 of their installation, an organized effort was made to destroy them for 
 their leftist themes and the artists and their supporters had to physically 
 defend the site. They were successfully defended and we have them today as 
 our cherished heritage. The artists were working under the Civil Works 
 Administration and Public Works Of Art program which was later extended to 
 many buildings and sites throughout the US.  \nSee
