Posted April 5, 2024
A few weeks back it was mentioned that painters were needed for the Castro Theater Restoration project. The job has been underway for a few weeks and two 913 journey workers; Harry Winford & Shante Kyer, and apprentice Deshara Hilton have been working diligently to bring the Historic Theater back to its Glory. Evergreene Architectural Arts is still looking for a skilled paper hanger for the project. If you have experience, contact the Hall so we can get you in contact with the company. Below is a photo of the crew, who has been stripping the old finish along with years of grime off of surfaces before re-finishing them.
The SF Public Utilities Commission is doing work throughout their facilities, but no site as much as the Bio Solid Facility in the Bay View. Industrial painters will have years’ worth of work on this project. A new apprentice could complete their entire apprenticeship, and still have a few years of work in front of them! 913 Journeyman Perry Jones painting pipes in The Bay View and Journeyman Patrick Nixion with Apprentice Angel Mojica by the Redwood truck at the North Point Pump Station.
