Dear Friends,
Last Friday I spent an hour at the Pasadena Museum of History
exhibition "Something Revealed: California Women Artists Emerge,
1860-1960." I wish I could have stayed the whole afternoon.
Any of you who might be in L.A. before March 31 should try to make
time for it. The museum is very small, but there are nearly 300 works
on display, some of them remarkable in themselves and all interesting
historically.
The basic facts are:
Pasadena Museum of History
470 W. Walnut Street
Pasadena, CA 91103
(626) 577-1660
www.pasadenahistory.org
Noon-5 Wed-Sun
The address is a little tricky. Because I approached the building
from the wrong direction, I sailed right past it the first time. It
is on the south side of Walnut at its extreme western end, right at
the corner of Orange Grove and a couple of blocks north of the Norton
Simon. It has a small parking lot.
The exhibit grew out of the massive, 4-volume publication "Emerging
from the Shadows: A Survey of Women Artistts Working in California,
1860-1960," by Maurine St. Gaudens (Schiffer Publishing, 2016). Some
of you doubtless have it in your libraries.
