Create Your Own Maritime Flag-Angels Gate Cultural Center
2019-09-28 15:00 - 18:00, 2019-09-22 08:00 - 17:00 | Angels Gate Cultural Center, 3601 S. Gaffey St, San Pedro, CA, 90731, United States
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2019
9/28, 10/26 – 3-6pm (Building G), 11/2 (Building F):
Maritime Flags are hung on boats to alert and share information from ship to ship. These flags often designate where the ship is from, whether or not it’s friendly, and can even communicate its cargo. Our workshop poses the question: Wouldn’t it be useful to communicate, from afar, a clear identity or state if you so choose? Maybe a flag will be the introduction most important to you or maybe it will draw attention from a stereotype. This workshop welcomes people of all ages to invent their own symbols and create flags inspired by International Maritime Flags. All materials will be provided. Bridging San Pedro: Visual Literacy as Community Practice is focused on the development of visual literacy in San Pedro community members through hands on making and deep listening exercises. Four artists with singular, but intersecting, art projects will work at Angels Gate Cultural Center (AGCC) to foster a greater awareness and association between the Port of Los Angeles, life in San Pedro and art as a daily lived experience. Each artist will lead free workshops during which members of the community will create elements that will be used to compose the final art piece. These projects will culminate in an exhibition, curated by jill moniz, in the AGCC galleries during the first quarter of 2020. This project is supported, in part, by the Port of Los Angeles through the Community Investment Grant Program.

LIKE THE OCEAN – WITH ARTIST ALEXIS SLICKELMAN
9/28, 10/26, 11/9 – 3-5pm (Building F):
Build an ocean tile by tile in a workshop with ceramic artist Alexis Slickelman. Participants will paint hand cut tiles with a variety of green and blue glazes that will be provided by the artist. Harness the power of making and collaborating with the community to create enough tiles for an 8’ x 10’ mural, representative of both the diversity of the San Pedro community and the uniting force of the Port. During the workshop, share your ocean and San Pedro stories with other participants and the artist.

American Cetacean Society Whale Lecture-Cabrillo Marine Aquarium
2019-09-24 19:00 | John M. Olguin Auditorium, 3720 Stephen M. White Dr. , San Pedro, CA, 90731, United States
When the whales win, everyone wins: How a whale study in Mexico transformed a community
by Katherina Audley
Barra de Potosí in SW Mexico is a little known jewel, and it’s at a tipping point. Humpback whales breed there every winter and resident dolphins delight visitors, but before Katherina Audley arrived, fishing was almost the only local industry. For the past six years, she has been working to change that through cooperative research, ecotourism, and community-driven conservation.
Her organization, the Whales of Guerrero, has been conducting collaborative whale and dolphin research in Barra de Potosí since 2013. With local fisheries on the verge of collapse, they have supported newly formed ecotourism coops to provide a new way for local people to make a living, and trained 75 boat owners from across the region in whale safe boating. Their environmental education programs have reached over 3500 kids in 25 schools.
Learn about the 16 species of marine mammals identified so far in this region, how a community of fishermen became committed whale protectors and a special village in Mexico where all the resident kids know their local whales by name. Katherina will also share her top tips on how to empower and inspire communities to become marine conservationists and lessons learned along the way.
