Removal[edit]
A week after the Statue of Junípero Serra (Los Angeles) was removed at Olvera (Los Angeles) the City of Los Angeles removed SJ Farnham sculpture. The day prior, the same group of families protested the Serra statue there, by wrapping it in plastic and temporarily taking out of public view.[2]
