Until Oct 1, 2011, visitors to Los Angeles are invited to ride along with local artist Johanna Reed for up to eight hours exploring the city. The two of you will dream up and execute art projects en route as Johanna completes her day delivery job for a courier service.
In her words, this is how it works: "I pick you up. We drive around Los Angeles. You, I and/or we make something. I drop you off at the end of the day." Projects can include but are not limited to writing a joint poem and leaving it at the side of the road, making a video or painting a picture.
For more information and/or to participate, visit Johanna Reed's website.
