An immersive exhibit fusing art & nature
THE HISTORIC BODDY HOUSE AT DESCANSO GARDENS
JUNE 3 - OCTOBER 1 2023
Art meets nature meets individual action this summer at a brand new interactive exhibit, presented by Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy.
Through the lens of talented wildlife photographers and camera trappers, via the paint brushes and canvases of local artists, and through the stories and wisdom of the Tongva people who have stewarded this land for millennia, you’ll see our wild surroundings from an entirely new perspective.
And even better, you’ll leave with immediate, accessible actions you can take to help conserve and protect the natural world that surrounds us here in Southern California.
