A daytime, all ages anniversary party with free workshops, ice cream, biscuits and live salsa within a former flour mill turned art gallery.
In 2016, when we opened 10 years ago in Downtown Los Angeles, we marked the occasion with Isa Genzken’s towering Rose III in the courtyard. Now, 10 years, over 90 exhibitions, and 2 million visitors later, the exhibition ‘Destiny Is a Rose: The Eileen Harris Norton Collection’ centers California collector Harris Norton, who might be seen as a constant gardener herself: she has built something both beautiful and enduring.
Join us on Saturday 30 May from 11 am – 4 pm to celebrate what we have grown together with a party of offerings, a testament to our garden being fully in bloom:
