Union City is launching a public art initiative to create a mural on the BART pillars at Kennedy Park, and city officials want residents to help shape it.
The Union City BART Mural Project is in its early planning stages, inviting community members to share ideas for themes, stories and visuals that reflect Union City’s history, hopes and cultural identity. The mural is expected to be completed by fall 2026, pending approvals and design development.
Residents can participate by filling out the online project survey, emailing ideas to ba****************@*********ca.gov, or attending upcoming tabling events. The next event is a District Dialogue on Thursday, July 24 at 6pm at the Ralph & Mary Ruggeri Senior Center.
District dialogues and tabling events are scheduled throughout July and August at locations including the Kennedy Teen Center and Mark Green Sports Center. The city will also collect input at community events such as Summer Movie Nights, National Night Out, and the Larry O Car Show.
The deadline to submit themes and concepts is August 31. For more information or to get involved, visit Union City’s official website or email ba****************@*********ca.gov.
