Los Angeles Maritime Institute (LAMI), home to LA's Official Tall Ships, the Exy Johnson and Irving Johnson, is curating an educational art exhibit in celebration of Tall Ships Festival LA 2014.

Featuring "art inspired by Sailors, Shipwrights and Riggers," the exhibit tells the story of the building of the Twin Brigantines as witnessed by Scott Kennedy during the three-year process. The exhibit will also include photography, knotwork, rigging tools and woodturnings created from the wood cut offs of the brigantines.

Catch a rare glimpse at old world craftsmanship at work today!

The educational art exhibit will also feature the work of Stan Hicks and other local artists and photographers.

Proceeds from artwork sales benefits the TopSail Youth Program.
