News from: City of Indio

Over the past four weeks, the Jackson Street Bridge has been undergoing an artistic transformation. To celebrate, an unveiling of the mural will be held on December 6, 2023, at 3:30 p.m. Artists Ivan Montoya and Joey Salamon have been meticulously crafting a masterpiece to bring rich character and tie in the history of Indio using form, color and imagery to the bridge pillars and walls.

Both artists have infused the expansive mural with details unique to Indio across the approximately 16,000 square feet of surface area under and along the Jackson Street Bridge. Unique elements to Indio, such as flora and fauna, pottery, shapes, and color scheme, have been thoughtfully woven into the design.
