Southern California Christmas Tour
My sister and her family have just moved back to the United States from Kenya and our families are spending the Christmas holiday together at their temporary home southeast of Los Angeles. So, of course, I've got to try to put together a Southern Cali tour while I'm here. It's not easy. I really hate being in the car and the key shows I'm interested are spread all over the place, from La Jolla down by San Diego to the Getty Center in north Los Angeles.
I haven't been able to find good sources for gallery listings; maybe there just isn't much photography on view in LA right now. Photography Now lists 13 pages of shows in NYC but only 3 for LA. Am I missing something? Angelenos, end me an email with tips (link in right column.)
