Santa Monica:<\/h2>

A Look Back to 1902 from Today<\/h3>

2018
<\/strong>May 18 – July 21<\/span><\/p>

Encore Viewing:\u00a0 September 2, 2018 through September 22, 2018<\/span><\/p>

What did Santa Monica look like in 1902? As a child, local resident Michael Murphy found the answer in a Santa Monica Fire Department photography book of local buildings. As an adult, he painstakingly researched and documented each location\u2019s appearance with the help of photographer Jens Lucking. This exhibit presents a series of then-and-now photographs comparing Santa Monica from 1902 to today.<\/p>

The exhibit is a companion to Murphy\u2019s book of the same title (released on May 14th, Arcadia Publishing). Join us in exploring how Santa Monica\u2019s structures have changed over the last century!<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
