AOIF launches “The Garden of Imagination”

The Arts of Imagination Foundation is excited to announce “The Garden of Imagination,” a new art exhibit in collaboration with ESMoA and CDI Early Learning Center. This exhibit uniquely pairs different story-inspired artworks for conversations about how our relationship with timeless stories can help us see artwork and each other differently.

Anchored by an original 1914 drawing by John R. Neill for the original Wizard of Oz book series, the exhibit features two inspired story book illustrations by contemporary Los Angeles based artists, Jacori “Aiseborn” Perry and Carlos “Kopyeson” Talavera, and two abstract pastoral renderings by German artist, Bernhard Zünkeler.

A stroll through a blooming garden on a warm summer’s day brings with it a host of delights. The flowers. The colors. And what else?… “The Garden of Imagination” invites us to look closer at nature around us, and to find the unexpected whimsy of a story waiting to be discovered.

What creative story will a garden stroll inspire in you?…

Visit “The Garden of Imagination” beginning October 18, 2024 at The Child Development Institute, 18050 Vanowen St, Reseda, CA 91335. For additional information email [email protected] or call CDI at (818) 888-4559
