Local artists to open their studios for MAIDEN LA.

Kathy Leader and Alain Rogier will be opening their studios for a self-guided tour on August 7th as part of MAIDEN LA, a county-wide network of ‘happenings’ that will take place during the month of August. The focus is to highlight Los Angeles as a vastly extensive and vibrant community, connecting these happenings throughout the region.

Coinciding with two LA biennials, the Hammer Museum’s Made in LA show and Current:LA Water, MAIDEN LA—a playful anagram and homophone of ‘Made in LA’—is a call to assemble and connect any and all Los Angeles artists, curators, performers, collectives, etc., to host open studios, group shows, or self-initiated projects in both traditional and unconventional spaces.

Artists, organizers, and self-started spaces are encouraged to host a project anytime during the month of August, and to submit these details for inclusion in an online directory, smart phone app and interactive map. There will also be a limited edition fold-out map that will act as a physical guide to the network.

If you are interested in doing the same, please contact Kathy at (310) 399-6289 or go to the MAIDEN LA website.
