LACMA Art Parade
Saturday, June 20
6 PM

We’re so excited to be part of LACMA’s Art Parade, as part of their opening weekend!

The Art Parade is a large-scale public celebration marking the opening of the David Geffen Galleries. In a public procession on Museum Row/Wilshire Blvd, the parade showcases mobile sculptures, costumes, banners, inflatables, music, and movement-based works that activate public space through collective artistic expression. Keep your eyes peeled for Bob Baker Marionettes within the procession!

Conceived two decades ago by influential art dealer and curator Jeffrey Deitch, The Art Parade ran annually in New York's SoHo from 2005 to 2008, bringing together more than 1,000 participants each year in a creative procession that transformed the streets into a living gallery.

The Art Parade both celebrates this cultural moment and underlines LACMA's longstanding commitment to celebrating artists, presenting art in public spaces, and engaging broad and diverse audiences. The Art Parade is part of LACMA’s Grand Opening Weekend, June 18–22.
