An inclusive, decentralized arts festival happening at locations across Los Angeles County, the 2020 edition of Maiden L.A. hosts some 75 projects, about half in-person and the rest online, with some hybrids. Highlights include a scavenger hunt
crossword puzzle that takes you around the city for clues, a
handwashing memorial to essential workers, a
film screening that layers 32
kaiju films simultaneously, a range of
open artist studio presentations and performances, an exhibition installed on the
Brewery Arts Colony fencing, a positive affirmation
selfie station, a web-based video-based
storytelling project, an exterior in-situ
photo-bombing of a local museum, a two-day boat and bridge
happening in the wetlands, a combination VR/IRL project about
the psyche emerging into the world, an indie gallery in a
driveway, and an exhibition and events series on the poignant, evolving, and always urgent idea of
home.
