Frescoes to Visit in San Francisco & the Northbay

If you are in California it's worth a pilgrimage to the St. Seraphim church in Santa Rosa where you can see the creation of large scale frescoes, which are still in the process of being painted. Another place to visit is the fabulous Diego Rivera fresco at City College in San Francisco. Not many people know about it. Most people go to the San Francisco Art Institute to view his other fresco but the painting at City College is much grander in scale.
