Gary Baseman's characters come to life at La Brea Tar Pits

24 of artist Gary Baseman's characters, including the ChouChous and the Tar Pit Girls, will perform and engage with crowds at the La Brea Tar Pits park and the LACMA museum in Los Angeles this Saturday:

"Choreographed by Sarah Elgart, and featuring a song by Carina Round, this dynamic experience will create new and alternative memories of one of LA's major landmark areas. Creating an atmosphere of whimsy and wonder, attendees who join the jollity by dancing or playing will receive limited-edition sashes with original art by Gary Baseman."

Saturday, June 12, 2010, at the La Brea Tar Pits Park, Los Angeles, Performances: 12 pm, 1 pm, and 3 pm (with vignettes in between and until 4 pm). It's free!
