About the Program

Join artists Tiffany Shlain and Ken Goldberg for a specially guided walkthrough of their new exhibition, Ancient Wisdom for a Future Ecology: Trees, Time, and Technology. The interactive, multi-sensory installation draws inspiration from the complex landscape of Los Angeles, Jewish thought, the science of tree dating (dendrochronology), and recent advances in Artificial Intelligence.

Afterwards, enjoy a boxed lunch picnic with the artists, where you can enjoy the Skirball's pristine outdoors surrounded by the wonder of nature.
