Letter: Protecting public art

May 7, 2017 by Editor Leave a Comment

Protecting public art

I enjoyed the article in the April 30 edition about the proposal of more public art in Benicia. That’s a great idea, but let’s not forget about what we already have. The Granizo tiles are a wonderful example of art and history as well as craftmanship that have withstood the years.I have appreciated these beautiful tiles since moving here four years ago and would love to see them cleaned and protected so visitors and locals can enjoy them for many seasons to come. They deserve it.
Count me in for the cleaning, preservation team.

Anina Hutchinson,
Benicia
