The Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC) is an arts center that produces, preserves and conducts educational programs about community based public art works. SPARC espouses public art as an organizing tool for addressing contemporary issues, fostering cross-cultural understanding and promoting civic dialogue. Working within this philosophical framework, over the last twenty-eight years SPARC has created murals and other forms of public art in communities throughout Los Angeles and increasingly in national and international venues.
