is a collec-tive of artists,
writers, urban planners, educators, scholars, farm-ers, ecologists, swap meet vendors, and youth inter-ested in engaging directly with the South El Monte/El Monte community through the arts by rethinking our use of space and transforming how we inhabit it.
!"#$%&'()"#*!+",#-./0!1#2+,#exhibit. Artists Juan Renteria,
Romeo Guzman and Christopher Anthony Velasco were asked to dive into the El Monte/South El Monte community and make original works of art inspired by public spaces such as parks, swap meets, streets, sidewalks, historical landmarks, gar-dens and vacant lots. Their projects ask us to rethink how we all experience, relate to, and understand space.
This art is for you –enjoy!
