🎨 Exciting News from Groveland! 🎨

WATCH Resources artists are proud to be contributing to a new community mosaic mural coming to the public restrooms on Ponderosa Lane—soon to be known as the Ponderosa Parking Restrooms!

Commissioned by the County of Tuolumne and led by local artist Barbara Bussler of Black Bear Mosaics, the mural is part of a Caltrans Clean California grant to beautify State Route 120. The design celebrates local history, native plants, and transportation, with contributions from community members, youth, and organizations like WATCH Resources.

Our artists are creating the handmade ceramic lettering that will appear in the mural’s legend panel, proudly representing creativity, inclusion, and collaboration.

We’re honored to be part of this vibrant public art project—stay tuned for updates and photos as it all comes together!
