Simon Rodia’s Towers of Watts, Los Angeles, California
Between 1921 and 1955, Simon Rodia transformed discarded objects and a dream to “Do something big” into the Towers of Watts, now on the National Register of Historic Places.
Rodia was a pioneer of reusing materials. His story of dreaming possibilities, initiative and perseverance will inform our explorations in the art room in the coming weeks.
