Local artists Morgan Bricca of Los Altos and Karen Druker of Los Altos Hills have each decorated fiberglass bears for the Los Altos Bears project that has overtaken downtown Los Altos.
Bricca, Druker and other professional and student artists have created a slew of bears to celebrate the communityâs emergence from its long, pandemic-induced hibernation. When the bears are auctioned at an Oct. 9 gala, the proceeds will fund charitable projects of the Rotary Club of Los Altos and will reimburse the artists.

Bricca, a muralist, painted the âCan You See Yourself in California?â bear, a grizzly on display in Veterans Community Plaza at the intersection of Main and State streets.
Murals are magical, and they re as mysterious as the ocean on a dark and stormy night. I mean, you and I walk past a wall, and we think, "Ugh, only six more blocks until I get to where I m going." A muralist walks past an empty brick building and thinks, "Yes! That is the perfect canvas!" It s rare to see murals getting made, and you often don t know the artist behind them, and they re so massive it s difficult to wrap your mind around how much paint it actually takes to complete just one master
