"Art is sort of an experimental station in which one tries out living" - John Cage
The traveling Sundown Schoolhouse comes home to the east side of Los Angeles for 'At Home in L.A.,' a series of activities with local materials, topics, and collaborators involving knitting, reading, napping, moving, talking, smudging, flower arranging, eating, garden fresh herbal tea drinking, music and yoga. We make ourselves at home on the massive expanding crocheted rug (fresh from the Hammer Museum and previously MoMA - before heading to the Walker Art Center) of discarded textiles serving as a charged field for trying out L.A. living. A typical daily schedule looks like this:
...11am-1pm: open yoga - all levels
...1pm: tea
...3-6pm: knitting & crafting (bring projects)
...6-8pm-ish: scheduled music, performances, readings
Featuring Lucky Dragons, Maya Gingery, UFO 2012, Dawn Kasper, LA Fog, Natural Curves, D Tibereo, KCHUNG, Katie Bachler, SK Kakraba, Sam Davis, Gabie Strong; activities lead by Fritz Haeg, Jen Doyle, Chiara Giovando, Eric Kim; more to be added...
Contact info(at)sundownschoolhouse(dot)org if you'd like to propose and lead an activity during one of the slots. Additions to the schedule will be made on a rolling basis.
