Photos from the new exhibitions....
This is seriously an amazing amassing of some quality sculpture. The level of intellectual and artistic ability is unreal; the artists 'explain' their work in language and ideas that really make the viewer THINK about what they are seeing. It's fantastic!! Come see it!!

Member Walk Through - Friday, August 22nd @ 2 p.m.
TAMA Members!!
As part of your TAMA Benefits you are invited to participate in the curator-led exhibition walk through the day before the opening of the new show on Friday, August 22, 2014 @ 2 p.m. at the TAM.
Also, the NEW TAM WEBSITE is up and it is glorious! Huge kudos to Curator Chris Reynolds for his work on the site!! It's beautiful and really shows off what the TAM is all about. Soon the TAMA page on the site will be expanded, but for now there is a link to our web site so if you have friends, family, casual acquaintances or strangers you meet in the supermarket, encourage them to check us out and join!!
We had a VERY successful meeting with the new Torrance Mayor Pat Furey and we've begun the process of getting some new signage to help those artistic wanderers find the TAM!! Keep an eye out for it soon.
Thanks again for all of your support! We have 25 members as of this writing and we hope to double that by the end of the calendar year! THANK YOU!!!!
