JOSHUA TREE–Mojave Project Day Field Trip: Joshua Tree area (one day only) Host and Guide: Kim Stringfellow, Project Director Sunday, November 4, 2018 Spend the day in the Morongo basin, home of Joshua Tree National Park, with the The Mojave Project and LACE. Tour is limited to 25 participants who will need to provide their own transportation between the various sites.  We will start the day at the Mojave Desert Land Trust to learn about their mission and how artists can minimize their impacts while siting creative projects in the desert, take a private soundbath at the Integratron, tour Noah Purifoy’s installations with his former assistant and visit the Joshua Tree’s downtown artist village. Please see the event listing below for full itinerary. We begin our day promptly at 9 am on Sunday, so we suggest that participants come out for the weekend and stay locally. We may host an impromptu screening and mixer on Saturday night before the tour depending on the number of people who sign up for this tour.  We require a minimum of 15 people to conduct this tour. If we do not have enough participants one week before the tour, we will cancel the tour and return your deposit.  This tour coincides with the exhibition of The Mojave Project at LACE (Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions) on view September 15 – November 18, 2018. Program and exhibition at LACE are funded by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.  Field Trip Costs: $60 – Non-refundable deposit per person How to sign up Reserve your place through Eventbrite.  The Mojave Project was supported by California Humanities through a California Documentary Project grant
