What Water Wants; Audio Tour

Saturday, October 26, 2024
5:00 - 6:30 PM 
Lewis MacAdams Riverfront Park 

Join us for a 30-minute audio tour What Water Wants by artist Rosten Woo, preceded by a bird walk on the banks of the Los Angeles River hosted by LA Birding Club. The event will be first come first served with availability for 30 participants, so please arrive early to claim your spot. Preceding the audio tour, LA Birding Club will lead participants in a half-hour educational walk along the Glendale Narrows section of the river to get to know the migratory and year-round birds that rely on this essential waterway. Binoculars will be provided, but feel free to bring your own!

Following the bird walk, attendees will be provided binaural over-the-ear headsets to experience What Water Wants. The tour is available in both English and Spanish. Guests will be encouraged to enter the inclined river channel with assistance from Clockshop staff, but it is not required to enjoy the audio tour. Participants can listen to the tour from the level pedestrian path. 

RSVP is required as we have a limited number of binoculars and headsets.

ARRIVAL & PARKING
The entrance is at 2944 Gleneden Street. The park is also accessible via L.A. River Bikeway and is located near the 603 and 92 bus routes.

The park has a small parking lot that is first-come, first-served. Please consider reserving these spots for families with young children and those with limited mobility. If you are able-bodied and are not accompanying young children, consider an alternative method of transportation. The park is located in a dense residential area, and street parking needs to be reserved for residents.  We highly recommend using public transportation, rideshare, biking, or carpooling.
