42nd Annual Simon Rodia Watts Towers Jazz Festival Celebrates Music, Art, and Community

A GRoW-commissioned sculpture of Rodia by Watts Towers Arts Center artist-in-residence Charles Dickson will be unveiled at the September 30 event in Watts.

Italian-born artist Simon Rodia was best known for constructing a Los Angeles landmark over three decades: the Watts Towers. The Watts Towers Jazz Festival, of which GRoW is a supporter, is free to the public and features performances by musicians who have a personal connection to the vibrant South Los Angeles community.
