The J. Paul Getty Trust is partnering with community groups across Los Angeles County including Plaza de la Raza Cultural Center to launch a ten-part series of FREE, outdoor community art festivals this summer in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Getty Center.
Plaza de la Raza in Lincoln Park will host a two-day FREE festival on May 21 & 22nd highlighting the arts of Lincoln Heights, East Los Angeles and featuring interactive workshops, live music and performances, an artisan marketplace, food trucks, giveaways, photo booths, and more. Getty will be present with an immersive digital experience of its collections, hands-on library, gift shop, and resources for job, volunteer, and internship opportunities.
“We have had a legacy of successful collaborations with the Getty, from years of participating in its Getty Marrow internship program to creative projects like the upcoming festival at Plaza de la Raza in Lincoln Heights,” said Tomas Benitez, development director at Plaza de la Raza. “This partnership has been due in large part to the respect and mutuality between partners and has resulted in a sustained benefit to our students, artists, families, and community, which will continue to resonate for years to come.”
