ART @ TONGVA – SaMo

About This Project

Presented by the City of Santa Monica’s Cultural Affairs Division, Art @ Tongva is an experimental art program in Tongva Park that highlights Tongva’s unusual geography of gardens, winding paths, and urban vistas, reimagining the small, exquisite spaces of the park designed by James Corner Field Operations.  Intimate and informal, the Art @ Tongva program brings together multidisciplinary artists including contemporary dance, visual and performing art, and music.  The program was produced and co-curated by Dyson & Womack in 2017, 2018, and 2019.

 

Programs included ‘The Wonder Room’ with new work by artists across dance, film, music, and performance art, ‘Great Explorations’, a family-friendly event featuring workshops and performances, and ‘Indigenous Now’, a celebration of contemporary Indigenous artists. Featured artists have included Sarah Elgart and Arrogant Elbow, Rosalie Rodriguez, Raye Zaragoza, Christine Marie, L. Frank, Deborah Aschheim, Maceo Paisley, Emily Mast, Cara Romero, Mecca Vazie Andrews, Felicia Fe Montes, Michael Parker, Nick Rodrigues, Beatriz Cortez, Jaque Fragua, and many more.
