What's Out There Weekend Los Angeles Launch Event

Please join TCLF and partners on November 7th at the free launch reception for What's Out There Weekend Los Angeles - The Public Landscapes of Ralph Cornell.

Hosted at the Beverly Hills Municipal Gallery at Beverly Hills City Hall, the Friday evening event will set the stage for the Weekend. The launch event is presented with the generous support of Architectural Resources Group and the partnership of Beverly Hills Heritage and Friends of Beverly Gardens Park. This event acknowledges the 100th Anniversary of the founding of the City of Beverly Hills, laid out by Cornell's partner Wilbur Cook, Jr. with extensive design work by Cook, Hall and Cornell. 

The Weekend kicks off with an event co-sponsored by California Garden and Landscape History Society and UCLA Library Special Collections including a  lecture by Brian Tichenor, professor at USC’s School of Architecture, and the opening of an exhibit in the UCLA Charles E. Young Research Library, “Ralph D. Cornell: Dean of Southern California Landscape Architecture.” This retrospective of Cornell’s life and career, on view November 7 through December 23, 2014, features a diverse array of drawings, renderings, photographs, and artifacts, many of which have never been publicly displayed.
