In connection with the Santa Monica Pier Restoration Corporation’s year-long celebration of the Pier’s centennial, the Los Angeles League of Photographers (LALOP) will share their vision of the Pier with an exhibition opening Friday, March 20, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., in the historic carousel. Founded in 2002 and modeled after the renowned New York Photo League, the mission of LALOP is to expose the wider public to photography’s essential social, political, and aesthetic values. Palisadian Sara Jane Boyers, who is exhibiting several of her photographs, most recently co-curated two LALOP exhibitions in support of community efforts to restore water recreation to two of Los Angeles downtown parks. Also, on hand will be Santa Monica Pier Restoration Corporation’s community venue liaison and pier historian, James Harris, signing copies of his new book, ‘Santa Monica: A Century on the Last Great Pleasure Pier.’ The exhibit will continue until April 1 during carousel operating hours.
