Dr. Edwin Coleman, Jr. Mural by Jessilyn Brinkerhoff and Esteban Camacho Steffensen

Dr. Edwin Coleman, Jr. was an African American Educator and leader in Eugene who advocated for human and civil rights for all for more than 50 years. In 2018, the community center in Westmoreland Park was renamed for him to honor his legacy to our community. The Friendly Area Neighbors Equity Action Team along with the Eugene/Springfield NAACP organized the painting of the mural and have two additional planned for the center.
