Sanctuary ~ Opens June 2

12:18 PM PDT on May 17, 2017

Sanctuary is a new exhibit from a new art collective and publication called Future Tongue that curates shows, hosts critical discussions, and documents in-depth studio visits with contemporary visual artists.  The show involves five artists who will take over a space in downtown Los Angeles to investigate the concept of a personal and cultural sanctuary. The theme is a direct response to the contentious immigration reform debate taking hold right now including Los Angeles as a sanctuary city.

Frohawk Two Feathers

New Guard Theater Company is crafting an immersive, live performance that weaves together the installations created by featured artists:  Monica Canilao, Double Diamond Sun Body, Britt Harrison, B. Justine Jaime, and Frohawk Two Feathers.
