Artist Event

Creating in Community: Fowler at 60 celebrates the sixtieth anniversary of the Fowler Museum at UCLA. As we look back at the research, exhibitions, and public programs of the past sixty years, we recognize that the most joyful and interesting projects have been those created with others. Through these collaborations fresh ideas bloomed, unforeseen challenges and expectations arose, and new connections were forged. Come revisit these extraordinary projects with us, as we bring this spirit of engagement into the future by working with partners to use our building and collections in ever more experimental ways.

“Rooted in Africa” is more than an exhibition; it is a dialogue between cultures, a celebration of diversity and unity. Through our theme – “Two People, Two Continents, Two Countries, Two Cultures, Two Genders, Two Generations, Two Races, Two Religions, Two Ideologies” – we explore the convergence of different worlds, coming together in a harmonious symphony. Our artists are not just creators; they are storytellers, visionaries, and pioneers, weaving their narratives into a tapestry of shared human experience.

We invite you to partake in this visual journey, to immerse yourself in the narratives and colors of “Rooted in Africa.” Join us for the Opening Reception on January 20th, from 5 to 8 pm, and engage in a deeper discourse at the Artist & Curator Talk on February 28th, from 7 to 9 pm.

Join VOX Femina Los Angeles as we opens a door to awareness and understanding with our concert, Mosaics from the Middle East, at Pico Union Project.

Programmed long before the current conflict, this abbreviated version of VOX’s February concert, places music from both Arab and Jewish traditions side by side, exploring shared human experiences of love, motherhood, grief, healing, and peace. Come hear the premieres of new commissions by Alex T. Favazza with text by Palestinian American Raneen Sfeir, and PUP’s own Craig Taubman, as VOX embraces the power of music!
