Art lovers all over the country are trying to find ways to experience culture as social distancing mandates keep brick n’ mortar galleries closed. Fortunately, Los Angeles and its car-centric culture are well-poised to get Agelenos out of the house and still keep them safe. On August 15, Titmouse Animation Studios will transform its giant parking lot into a drive-thru art showcase by 13 year old Tex Hammond. Splinter will feature 20 new large-scale conceptual portraits made on reclaimed wood, laid out in an immersive, guided-audio art experience. Hammond will be doing live art throughout the day and finish a massive new mural by the time the day is over. Proceeds will benefit Black Voters Matter, dedicated to restoring and safeguarding democracy for African Americans. Splinter will be open on August 15 from 4 to 7pm. Entry is FREE with RSVP. Email tex@texhammond.com to confirm your attendance and be prepared to show digital confirmation prior to entry.
