Sculpture of children at Grossmont Center mall.

Do you readers know anything about this sculpture of children at play at the Grossmont Center shopping mall? I discovered it a few weeks ago during a walk in La Mesa and have endeavored to learn more. Nothing so far.

The bronze sculpture, in front of Barnes & Noble Booksellers, shows one child helping another to climb a wall. I found no plaque. Someone on Pinterest claims it has been there for many years and that other similar sculptures are located in the family-friendly shopping complex. If I return to Grossmont Center, I’ll have to look around some more.

Can you shed any light on this fun public art? Please leave a comment!

  1. Richard; Hope all is well. This might be an item of interest for you? The SD Museum of Art Artists Guild has 150 artists. 16 of them have partnered with the Barrio Artists Partnership to create an exhibit calle “One Day in the Life of Imperial Avenue” . I call our small group a Guild “Atelier”. We have been looking at Imperial between 16th and 30the for 3-4 months now and each artist is creating their own image. An exhibit will open March 20 at Tularosa gallery on Imperial….
