DESCRIPTION:On Sunday, May 16, 2004 The Women’s Building will celebrate the 10th 
 Birthday of its magnificent mural, MaestraPeace, with a community street 
 fair.  The Birthday party is part of a year-long celebration of the 
 Women’s Building’s 25th Anniversary.  The acclaimed mural was painted 
 on The Women’s Building façade in 1994 by seven multi-generational, 
 multi-cultural women muralists with input from a broad range of community 
 organizations and individuals. Its vibrant color and complex form embodies 
 a belief in the healing power of women’s wisdom for all communities and 
 serves as a visual testament to the courageous contributions of women 
 through time and around the world.    Over the past decade, the mural has 
 gained international recognition.  It has become closely identified with 
 The Women’s Building and its commitment to women’s empowerment, art and 
 social justice.  In the past couple of years, the mural has been vandalized 
 several times in a series of hate crimes, but despite the efforts to deface 
 it, MaestraPeace has emerged more beautiful than ever, reflecting the 
 determined spirit of resistance of the community which it represents.    
 The May 16th celebration will honor the resilience of the Mission 
 community, the inspirational vision of the muralists, and the survival and 
 growth of the Women’s Building for a quarter century. It will feature 
 music, dance, food, local artist booths, and community tables.  For more in 
 depth information about the mural and The Women’s Building, or to
