Belmont Park is a historic part of San Diego that attracts visitors and locals alike. Built in 1925, the beachfront amusement park has recently implemented a mural program, bringing vibrancy and color to the park. The mural program started in 2022 as part of the launch of their spring festival, Belmont in Bloom. During this festival alone, Belmont Park was able to highlight over 65 artists and completed 5 large murals throughout the park. One of the most popular and most photographed murals at Belmont Park is located in front of Sweet Shoppe and created by local artist, Stefanie Bales. Inspired by the ice cream parlor’s existing branding, Bales set out to preserve the classy ambiance while also adding a modern touch. Belmont Park invests a large part of its efforts into live art events, art classes for the public and new art installations around the park, breathing life into dormant areas and adding photo opportunities at every corner. The mission continues annually as a part of Belmont in Bloom, where the park seeks to bring more beauty and color to the local San Diego community with the help of talented artists from the city.
