Inter/Act: Claiming Our Space

Fourth graders from Cienega Elementary School explored the question, "How is space claimed?" through an exploration of local and historial Los Angeles landmarks and Los Angeles-area land use. Museum field trips and the study of land use millions of years ago, plus the exploration of neighborhood landmarks and the significance of personal spaces culminated in the assembly of a 3-D neighborhood map that included the landmarks and significant spaces "claimed" by these young students. Project collaborators included 826LA, artist Jacqueline Dreager, the Los Angeles Public Library, and Education and curatorial staff from the Page and Natural History Museums.
