GLOW 08

This Saturday, July 19 during the monthly C.R.A.N.K mob extravaganza we will be stopping by GLOW in Santa Monica. Sounds like a cool summer event. I've never been (so if it's not so cool don't blame me!). So if you like crazy bike rides (and maybe drinking and jump roping and jousting on bicycles) C.R.A.N.K mob will be heading out that way. If not, you can use an old fashion car and head out to Santa Monica.

GLOW 08

Glow will fill the hours between dusk to dawn with compelling, enchanting and effervescent sights and sounds situated in spaces and times that expand possibilities for where, how and when the public experiences contemporary art.

July 19, 2008

7 pm - 7 am

From dusk to dawn, experience the Santa Monica beach, Pier and Palisades Park through the eyes and minds of artists. GLOW will fill the night with compelling, enchanting and effervescent sights and sounds situated in spaces and times that expand the possibilities for where, how and when the public participates in contemporary art.

Featuring over twenty temporary site specific installations and performances, Glow is entirely free to the public. This unique festival is made possible with major funding from the Norton Family Foundation, along with the Durfee Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and Starbucks Coffee Company, and other generous sponsors.

Glow is being produced by the City of Santa Monica in partnership with Bayside District, the Pier Restoration Corporation, and the Santa Monica Convention and Visitors Bureau. Part of the premise of Glow is the unique beach front setting and an homage to the grunion, a fish that lives in local waters and comes up to the beach to spawn creating a momentary 'glow'.
