Concerts In the Dome + 'Of Sea and Sky' Exhibit
- Mount Wilson Observatory, Access via the Angeles Crest Highway (CA Hwy 2) from the 210 Freeway, La Cañada Flintridge
A summer adventure up to Mt. Wilson Observatory (home of the LAist radio signal!) is well worth your time to experience the combination of science, art, and architecture that make it special. The dome has been transformed this summer into an immersive exhibit called Of Sea and Sky — open on weekends through October 20 — with video installations from Rebeca Méndez and large-scale prints by Stephen Nowlin. On select Sundays, the exhibit isn’t on view, because the observatory’s artistic director Cécilia Tsan has curated a series of concerts that make the most of the incredible acoustics in the dome. This Sunday, L.A. string group Rogue Lemon Collective will play; there will also be a reception with light refreshments in between the concerts at 4 p.m.
