NEWLY DEDICATED: The National Council of Jewish Women recently dedicated its new mural, which honors women committed to community service, social action and education. Painted on the north wall of the organization's Fairfax Avenue headquarters, it was done by Daryl Wells under the auspices of the Social and Public Art Resource Center's 1992-93 "Great Walls Unlimited: Neighborhood Pride" mural program.

The mural presents images of Jewish-American women--including Betty Friedan, Lillian Hellman and the council's founder Hannah Solomon--and images of women of various other ethnic heritages, such as former congresswoman Barbara Jordan, United Farm Workers leader Dolores Huerta and Aung San Suu Kyi of Burma, winner of the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize.*

\o7 Because of the street lights nearby, the mural can be seen not only during the day but at night, at 543 N. Fairfax Ave. Call (213) 651-2930.\f7
