Completed in Fall of 2021, this 13' California Quail stands an attentive guardian over his inquisitive chicks…and visitors to the South A St. Arts District too!
New Arrival
The South of A Street SOFA district welcomes new art – the Quail Gate!
Completed in Fall of 2021, Quail Gate was a collaborative mural effort in the SOFA (South of A Street) Art District in Santa Rosa. Many hands layered paint and ideas into this mural, including neighbors, artists, friends, and passers by.
The mural depicts the locally abundant and much beloved California Quail (Callipepla californica) and a trio of chicks. In the background, California Oat Grass (Danthonia californica, a native, perennial grass) rises overhead, backlit by a rising sun.
Several people need particular mention for their involvement in creating this mural:

along with every person who stopped by to say hello or dab some paint on the wall with us while we worked.
