The Watts Towers Tour Guide Program offers visitors a unique and in-depth look at one of Los Angeles’ most iconic landmarks. Participants will be guided by knowledgeable tour guides through the towers, learning about the history, cultural significance, and artistic processes involved in their creation. The tour, which is the only way to gain access to the towers, will last approximately 30 minutes and highlight the life of Simon Rodia, the Italian immigrant who built the towers over a

33-year period, and the cultural and social context of the Watts neighborhood in which they stand. The tour also includes a visit to the Watts Towers Arts Center, where visitors can see rotating exhibitions of contemporary art and learn about the ongoing preservation efforts for the Towers. With this program, visitors will gain a greater appreciation for the Watts Towers as a masterpiece of folk art and a symbol of resilience and community spirit.

The Fremont Arts & Wellness Festival connects families and communities to the benefits of soil, art, and urban gardening, promoting a sense of belonging, empowerment, and resilience.

This free, day-long, public celebration is centered around the unveiling of a mobile Seed and Zine Library — a mobile art installation that provides a platform to share plant-based knowledge, wellness resources, zine-making, and more with the community.

Activities will include gardening workshops, zine-making, seed sharing, and artmaking.

Recycled materials is the focus, in addition to promoting urban gardening, the art installation and accompanying workshops will invoke inspiration and uplift local, cultural strategies to address climate change and food insecurity.

 

Friday, May 24, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Fremont Wellness Center and Community Garden.
