Chrysler Outdoor Movie Night: The Garden
This event is no longer on sale.
Join the Chrysler Museum of Art as we celebrate Alma W. Thomas: Everything Is Beautiful with a Chrysler Movie Night. Alma Thomas's love for her community and gardens in the midst of racial and social injustice is echoed in The Garden.
The film introduces viewers to the South Central Farm, a 14-acre community garden that was established in the ruins of the L.A. riots in 1992. After the lush garden thrived for a decade, the urban farmers were notified that they were being evicted. In a back-room deal, the city of Los Angeles sold the space back to the developer who originally owned it. The farmers mobilized to prevent the onslaught of bulldozers in an attempt to save their beautiful land and the sustainable life it provided.
