Roberto Delgado, Roderick Sykes and Richard Wyatt will design and paint the first three murals for Neighborhood Pride: Great Walls Unlimited Project, the recently revitalized city-funded mural program. “We wanted the first round to be sort of a clarion signal that we’re back in business and that we’re looking for top artists,” said County Museum of Art curator Howard Fox, member of a five-person panel that picked the artists. Sites for the murals, to be started in mid-October, have not yet been determined, said a spokesman for the Social and Public Arts Resource Center, which is running the program. Sykes and Wyatt painted two of Los Angeles’ Olympic murals.
