Artists from Los Angeles and New Orleans examine the mutability and movement of identity, ideology, information, and spirituality.

Los Angeles and New Orleans are two metropolitan areas deeply influenced by their relationships with water, albeit in very different ways: Los Angeles navigates its scarcity while New Orleans grapples with its abundance. Both also have long and complicated histories with oil—its extraction, the environmental and public health effects of that process, and impact on the economy and transportation systems in each region. Their inhabitants experience fluidity in more personal ways. We are constantly using liquid metaphors to express the mutability and movement of identity, ideology, information, and spirituality.

Deck Unveiling on Battleship Iowa
2025-07-31 10:00 - 11:00 | Battleship IOWA, 250 S. Harbor Blvd., San Pedro, CA, 90731, United States
Join the public unveiling July 31, 10–11 AM
Thanks to the incredible support of our friends in the Great State of Iowa, the dedication of our volunteer crew, and the expert craftsmanship of Teakdecking Systems, we are thrilled to announce the completion of the 01 verandas restoration.
Both the starboard and port sides are now fully renewed. This milestone not only makes the deck beautiful, but also protects the steel structure beneath it from the elements for years to come.
We’re celebrating this impressive transformation with a public unveiling on July 31 from 10–11 AM and we’d be thrilled if you joined us.
Our passionate crew turned dollars from our wonderful partners into something really special. They gave classy new life to a genuinely cool area of the ship.
And while the 01 level is now complete, our deck work is far from finished. This project represents a mere 10% of the deck space aboard the ship awaiting restoration, and we need your help to keep the momentum going.
