Cars have been synonymous with Crenshaw for decades. Dealerships moved into the area in the 1950s and '60s to serve the growing Black middle class, and then the rise of the lowrider cruising scene developed through the 70s to today. Is there a deeper meaning of community that can be drawn from Crenshaw car culture? Zócalo Public Square tackles this question with artist and sculptor Charles Dickson, whose aptly named work “Car Culture” is on display in Sankofa Park; he’ll speak with Destination Crenshaw historian Larry Earl and Destination Crenshaw Public Art Director Heather Heslup.
