DESCRIPTION:Coit Tower Mural Walk \nWith Peter O’Driscoll and Harvey Smith \n In the 
 past few years there has been a growing community effort to defend the Coit 
 tower murals from leaking water and to stop plans for privatization of the 
 site. This led to the critical renovation of the murals on their 80th 
 anniversary in 2014. They were being painted during the time of the 1934 
 general strike in San Francisco.  LaborFest will hold its annual guided 
 tour of the murals with Peter O’Driscoll and Harvey Smith. At the time of 
 their installation, an organized effort was made to destroy them because of 
 the leftist themes. The artists and their supporters had to physically 
 defend the site. The murals were successfully defended and we have them 
 today as our 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 U.S.\nSee
