Roundabout Mosaic

A 300-square-foot mosaic has been installed on an existing semi-circular concrete wall along the Mill Valley/Sausalito Pathway. Over the course of eighteen months, Marin County Parks collaborated with artist Wilma Wyss and more than thirty-nine volunteers to bring this area to life. "Rising Native Flora" was informed by Marin's natural environment, and how it grows and changes over time. Native plants including flowering currant, coyote brush, and marsh saltgrass are depicted on the wall. The artwork was complemented with improved landscaping in the surrounding area.
