LACMA LOCAL BOOKMAKING CLASS!
Join us November 4th, from 10AM - 1PM and learn to create the fun and innovative flag book! Fold an accordion spine, add book covers, and attach your flag book pages to create a pattern that moves as you open the book! Add text to your "flags", inspired by Barbara Kruger's "Shafted" elevator piece, and see the poetry unfold. Led by artist Debra Disman.
LACMA Local is something brand new: a membership designed to create a LACMA community and connect people to one another, with the museum as the catalyst for these connections.
Locals are invited to events that take place twice a month on Saturdays, designed to encourage members of LACMA Local to make friends, participate, and connect. Check out the complete listings to see what's coming up!
As a LACMA Local, you'll be invited to attend as many events as you like. You can add LACMA Local to a current membership for $25 per person (up to two people per membership), or join a la carte for $40.
LACMA Local is for anyone who likes LACMA and is interested in forming bonds with other people who are into LACMA. It's not about how old you are or where you're from or what you do. Everyone is welcome.
