Date Farmers

722 Vine Street (north facing wall)

The Date Farmers kicked off the project on Cesar Chavez Day, with a mural alongside "El Centro del Trabajador" or the "Center for the Worker" on Vine Street, where Cesar Chavez spent some of his time organizing farmworkers.

"We decided to do something related to the farmworkers' history," Lerma said.

The brightly colored mural depicts two men who appear to be marching. A car in the background carries their luggage.

Sobio says that in addition to stimulating foot traffic to the area, the “Coachella Walls” project is meant to raise awareness for the larger Eastern Coachella Valley and is dedicated “to the anonymous farm worker.”

“There are a lot of farmers working in bad conditions in certain parts of the Eastern Valley,” he says. “It’s a poor city, a forgotten city. We want to shed some light on that. We want to recognize the farmers and  the city of Coachella and the Eastern Valley, because they have something to say -- that they exist.”

Working in gouache, oil and acrylic, he weaves atmospheric, richly textured narratives in a vivid palette.  Andrew Hem’s introspective paintings evoke the life of the spirit through the visionary manifestation of memories and dreams.
