Re-Discovery Art Tour November 23
The Arroyo Arts Collective thanks Councilmember Ed Reyes and the Historic Highland Park Neighborhood Council for their generous support of the up-coming Re-Discovery Tour, our 16th annual showcase of artists’ homes and studios in Highland Park, Mount Washington and Eagle Rock. Suzanne Jimenez,
Field Deputy for Councilmember Reyes, graciously arranged for two shuttle buses for this years’ Re-Discovery Tour on Sunday, November 23, 2008 (Lummis Home gates open at 9:30 a.m.).
Sixteen years ago 50 artists opened their studios - this year the roster tops 140 - old favorites side by side with fresh finds, featuring painting, sculpture, ceramics, collage, computer graphics, photography, letterpress, printmaking, fiber arts and spray can art. Something for everyone (in a good way). This is an opportunity to engage with the artists, and view their studios firsthand!

Avenue 50 Studio: Black/Brown Dialogues
Saturday, August 9, 2008 from 7-10 pm
Universal Struggle” — Nathanial Bustion
Continuing with our Black/Brown Dialogues: “Lives at the Intersection” art opening
Mely Barragan · Nathaniel Bustion · Pamela Davis · Jan Jackson · Jacobo Ramirez · Oscar Sanabria
Curated by Dr. Gerda Govine Ituarte, Ed.D.
Opening Night Reception: Saturday, August 9, 2008 from 7-10 pm
The Avenue 50 Studio is proud to present “Lives at the Intersection,” an exhibit featuring multi-media works of art by six Los Angeles artists. The works are as diverse as the artists. Many of us live at the intersection of bi-racial, bi-cultural, intra-cultural and immigrant realities. Black/Brown relationships are stretched across a racialized domestic and international landscape sprinkled with preconceived stereotypes. Our exhibit focuses on a “value added” (strength and benefit) perspective regarding the spaces created at that intersection. Each artist created a space for conscious dialogue exploring commonalities and possibilities. They capture moments shaped by their experiences and truth, and invite the audience to consider the multi-faceted opportunities.
