Public Artwork for the Future Pomona Gold Line Station Stephen Farley, Artist

Honor the People who gave you power

Photos & stories of people from Pomona who made a difference

See submissions in Hall of Gratitude here

The deadline for submitting entries has passed.

Who inspired you? For whom are you grateful? Who changed your life? They could be known to many, or just to you. Other cities have a hall of fame. The future Pomona Gold Line station will have a hall of gratitude. The Pomonans to be honored will be selected from those submitted through this public call to all Pomona residents.

Words expressing the power of these people will be exhibited alongside their photos. An example could be: “Norma showed me the power of love”. The artwork will be fabricated on glazed ceramic tile, using the Tilography process. Pairs of people and statements will be included on railings and other locations around the future station.

This project is designed to connect us to our past and our future, generating a renewable source of people power for positive change. The transformative power of community pride can unleash miracles.
