Historic Sites and Museums need your help.

Throughout the country, important historic sites, homes, buildings, and museums are in trouble. Because of the recent rise in gasoline prices and the general world-wide financial collapse, historic sites and museums are in danger of closing. Some are being forced to sell off artifacts and property. Most operate on a thin margin and will not weather these hard times without your help.

Places Earth urges everyone to support these vital and important public resources any way you can. Please find a worthy local or distant historic site or museum that is in financial danger and donate your treasure, time, and talent.

Vermonica

Named for the two streets that intersect beside the commercial parking lot where this street light exhibit stands, Vermonica can be viewed at the northeast corner of Vermount and Santa Monica. Originally planned to stand for one year, it still remains over ten years later. Sheila Klein conceived this idea which was implimented with the help of various "City of Los Angeles Bureaus and Departments, businesses, the neighborhood, and lots of friends."

It can be viewed any time and is best viewed in a variety of times and lighting.
