The Box Gallery says…

The Box Gallery has successfully bridged art and social change with the Skid Row History Museum, a means of educating the public about the problems faced by LA's homeless population. The temporary show involves an interactive time line, a large floor map of downtown Los Angeles, and a "sleeping zone" outlined in red tape outside the gallery. To celebrate the success of the Skid Row History Museum, tonight's closing reception features Dome Village designer Ted Hayes speaking about his ingenious and architecturally innovative invention, as well as performances by Lucky Dragons, Ron Taylor, the Church of the Nazarene Gospel Choir, and Riccarlo Porter.
