IAO Story Lab at Craft Contemporary

  • Craft Contemporary 5814 Wilshire Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90036 USA (map)

At the IAO Olfactory Storylab at Craft Contemporary, The Institute of Art and Olfaction introduces visitors to the rich creative possibilities of scent and craft—facilitated by a curated group of resident perfumers.

Saturday, August 16th from 11am - 5pm, Miss Layla will work in the experimental perfume laboratory in the museum’s lobby to create an olfactory sketch that relates to a myth from her culture. As part of the residency program, Miss Layla will also provide a short text explaining her work.

This event is free with museum admission.

The IAO Olfactory Storylab is a collaborative program between The Institute for Art and Olfaction and Craft Contemporary. This exhibit is produced in conjunction with Ether: Aromatic Mythologies, an exhibition of thirteen artists working at the confluence of storytelling, identity, and scent by delving into ancient, modern, personal, or entirely invented mythologies.
