Raise your spades for Ron Finley, Gangsta Gardener

This photograph—by Dae Howerton and Dallas J. Logan—of Los Angeles community organizer, urban gardener, humanitarian, artist, designer, father and “ecolutionary” Ron Finley is reproduced from staff favorite new release Ron Finley: The Gangsta Gardener. The first book devoted to this heroic horticulturalist, The Gangsta Gardener chronicles Finley’s journey from 2009, when he was first fined for planting vegetables, fruit trees and flowers in barren spaces around his neighborhood, through his participation in the 2024 Hammer Museum exhibition, Breath(e): Toward Climate and Social Justice. “Growing your own food is a human right! Or it should be!” he writes in the book. “Being healthy is a form of resistance. Swords to Plowshares. Let your shovel be your Weapon of Choice to change the system of food inequality. Raise Your Spades!”

FEATURED STORE

Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA)

Since its inception in 1965, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) has been devoted to collecting works of art that span both history and geography, in addition to representing Los Angeles's uniquely diverse population. Today LACMA is the largest art museum in the western United States, with a collection that includes nearly 130,000 objects dating from antiquity to the present, encompassing the geographic world and nearly the entire history of art. LACMA's mission is to serve the public through the collection, conservation, exhibition, and interpretation of significant works of art from a broad range of cultures and historical periods, and through the translation of these collections into meaningful educational, aesthetic, intellectual, and cultural experiences for the widest array of audiences. The LACMA Store reflects the museum itself through its thoughtfully curated selection of books, jewelry, gift items, and one-of-a-kind Los Angeles-based designs as well as children's books and toys. The store has a wide selection of art and photography books, and special exhibition catalogues. It is located in the Resnick Pavilion.
