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. 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.  Both the murals and the view from Coit Tower 
 of the Bay and both bridges are a treasure.\nSee also:\n
