S. Pearl Sharp, author of Black Women For Beginners will be screening her documentary, Fertile Ground: Stories from the Watts Towers Arts Center, at the Watts Towers Common Ground Initiative at the Instituto Italiano di Cultura in Los Angeles on Monday, October 18.


The documentary is the first visual documentation of the Watts Towers Arts Center, a creative hub in Los Angeles' Watts community which has nurtured young and established artists in all mediums. The film reveals the Towers' history through stories recounted by the people who have been closest to it. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with S. Pearl Sharp (writer and director of the film) and executive producer, Rosie Lee Hooks.


That will be taking place at 6:00 pm on Monday, October 18. It's sure to be very interesting so if you're in the area, be sure to support the For Beginners author, S. Pearl Sharp.
