Focusing on the needs of playwrights to bring original material to life, the Botanicum Seedlings series presents a staged playreading at the Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum. As a response to the diminishing opportunities for playwrights at major theatres, the series invites emerging writers, actors and directors to produce new and in-process works. With a leaning toward provocative, political and socially relevant material, submission of plays and musicals must be done in advance.

Stirring the imagination unlike any other city in the US, LA has inspired photographers since the 1860’s to explore this spacious landscape filled with raw and compelling complexities. The Huntington’s exhibit “This Side of Paradise: Body and Landscape in LA Photographs” presents work by photographers who examined both the human and geographic terrain, which resulted in helping an elusive LA find its visual identity.
As the world’s largest street painting festival, 600 artists will use 25,000 sticks of pastel chalk to create spectacular sidewalk murals at the Pasadena Chalk Festival. Attracting artists from virtually every LA community, witness the creation of elaborate pavement art that after the two day Festival will be washed away.
