Remembering our dear friend and longtime partner,

Remembering our dear friend and longtime partner, Vida Blue. Vida was not only a champion on the baseball field but also a champion to his community. He dedicated his post MLB career to enriching the lives of marginalized youth throughout the Bay Area. He was a proud recipient of our 2020 Nate Thurmond Award, and he will be forever memorialized with the Vida Blue Field of Dreams at Northern Light School in Oakland. RIP Vida!

On Tuesday, we unveiled our 16th LeRoy Neiman Art

On Tuesday, we unveiled our 16th LeRoy Neiman Art Studio at Bresee Youth Center in Los Angeles. We had the pleasure of partnering with the LeRoy Neiman and Janet Byrne Neiman Foundation along with the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation. The beautiful space was brought to life by MBH Architects, W.L. Butler Construction, and Los Angeles street artist, Eric “King Cre8” Walker.

The room is filled with nods to the iconic Dodger Stadium with a custom whiteboard in the shape of the Dodger Stadium scoreboard, and our signature floor splatter included all five stadium seat colors. On the gallery walls, images of Fernando Valenzuela, Jackie Robinson, Steve Garvey, Sandy Koufax, and Vin Scully are surrounded by bright colors to resemble Neiman’s unique style. The room is stamped with the Brooklyn Dodgers “B” to represent not only the history of the team but the history of all of the great work that has been done at Bresee.

We cannot wait to see all of the wonderful art the kids create in this space!
