    Plein Air Exhibition

    to

    The Armory Center for the Arts presents the exhibition Plein Air, a group exhibition that explores shifting ideas of western landscape, painting, and fieldwork. Traditional plein air painting, which typically involves painting outdoors in a single sitting to capture a vista in a certain quality of light, is taken as a point of departure to consider the ways in which humans use, observe, record, and commune with the land. In this exhibition, the practice of plein air painting is considered in the context of land surveying and settling, public and private space, multidisciplinary onsite research, art history, and the embodied experience of being there. Outdoor painting from observation is approached as ground truth—as bearing witness—a way to experience, process, and understand a range of physical landscapes, and our relationship to them.

    The exhibition includes work by Susanna BattinEsteban Cabeza de Bacairis yirei huKB JonesHillary MushkinSterling Wells, and Paula Wilson. The exhibition was organized by guest curator Aurora Tang for the Museum of Contemporary Art, Tucson. An expanded version will be on view in the Armory’s Caldwell Gallery from July 21 to December 10, 2023.

    Gallery Hours are Fridays 2:00-6:00 pm, and Saturdays and Sundays 1:00-5:00 pm.  The entrance is free, but donations are appreciated.

The Rose Bowl has also been the site for four Super Bowls, the 1994 World Cup and the 1999 Women's World Cup. The Rose Bowl was completed in 1922 and was first used for the USC-California game that same year. Although the stadium has held well over 100,000 fans over the years, the current seating capacity is 91,136.

    Pasadena Heritage offers their popular in-person Old Pasadena Walking Tour on first Saturdays in 2023 beginning on February 4, and continuing every other month.  Old Pasadena Management District is a proud sponsor of these educational and enjoyable tours of our historic district.  

    Saturday, October 7 - Old Pasadena Walking Tour South

    June’s tour will include historic Dayton Street and some of our first Black-owned businesses, the first fire station, and Friendship Baptist Church. It also includes Mills Place, the location of what the LA Times would call “The Night of Terror.” Learn the story of how the burning of a Chinese laundry began the expulsion from Pasadena’s first commercial district of our Chinese population.

    This tour features the ruins of Pasadena’s second library, a historic theatre that is now readapted as condominiums, and perhaps one of the most controversial preservation stories regarding an entire block that was saved.

    Old Pasadena has had many transformations over its many years as our first commercial center. Without Pasadena Heritage, this National Register Historic District would have been destroyed! Now it is one of the finest examples of downtown revitalization in the country. Let one of their trained docents lead you through the historic neighborhood and reveal its many hidden and unusual architectural details, old alleyways, and historic signs. Tours last approximately 1.5 hours with a walking distance of approximately 1 mile.

    Saturdays bi-monthly in 2023:

    Old Pasadena Walking Tour - South
    February 4, June 3, and October 7
