Southern California’s landmark arts event, PST ART (previously Pacific Standard Time), returns in September 2024 with more than 818 artists, 50 exhibitions, and one mind-blowing theme: "Art & Science Collide." The Luckman Fine Arts Complex is proud to present "Sinks: Places We Call Home," an art exhibition organized by Self Help Graphics and Art, featuring artists Maru Garcia and Beatriz Jaramillo. In Los Angeles, as elsewhere in the United States, communities of color are often the populations most vulnerable to the toxic effects of industrial waste and soil contamination. "Sinks: Places We Call Home" highlights the environmental disparities created by manufacturing sites in two communities located near Self Help Graphics & Art (SHG): Exide Battery plant in Vernon and the former Athens Tank Farm (Exxon/Mobil Oil Corporation) in Willowbrook.
All Cal State LA students, faculty, staff, and alumni, as well as community members from outside of Cal State LA are welcome to attend.
