An Interactive Art Piece
EL SERENO LAND
“El Sereno Land” creates a playful and fun opportunity for the community to create and write short stories based on “open-ended” images. Access to these images will be through various social media portals. This project is being sponsored by the Holy Grounds Arts & Literacy Foundation, in collaboration with a local photography studio, The Artery. Together, the foundation staged a small number of possible vignettes using toy action figures as props utilizing the “Welcome to El Sereno” monument located within the traffic median on Huntington Drive in El Sereno.
