Station
At Pacific Coast Highway Station, the Metro Art program features Twelve Principles, created by Joe Lewis. This artwork embodies collective community values gathered from interviews with over 100 Long Beach residents, including individuals from the business sector. The installation emphasizes twelve core principles: Faith, Family, Humility, Hope, Honesty, Communication, Unity, Open Mindedness, Integrity, Education, Discipline, and Excellence.
The piece consists of twelve discs made from concrete, tile, and aluminum, each adorned with symbols and text intended to engage observers. Accompanying the artwork is a brochure containing reflections by local students on these principles. To honor the cultural diversity of the neighborhood, the text appears in English, Spanish, and Khmer.
