The art and science of Southern California collide in this free family-friendly festival. Held on the lawns at La Brea Tar Pits, the event is produced by the renowned Edinburgh Science Festival and presented by the Getty in conjunction with its PST ART initiative. Curious and creative kids ages 4–14 can have fun with hands-on workshops (think building with adobe, making their own stop-motion animation and uncovering fossils), stage shows, live music and Street Science performances throughout the park. (Note: Some activities will take place nearby at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, LACMA and Craft Contemporary.) After hours on Saturday evening, L.A. band Quetzal and La Familia Gutiérrez will play a free concert (7–8:30pm).
