Hancock Park

Home to both the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Page Museum of La Brea Discoveries, Hancock Park is a natural historic site where both science and art are combined in a public setting. Sussman/Prejza worked with the staff and scientists of the Page Museum to create a comprehensive system of identification, wayfinding, and instructional signage to guide visitors through the park, while explaining the phenomenon of the Tar Pits at each of the six major excavation sites. Each porcelain enamel panel highlights information relating to geologic time, animal life, and the preservation of fossils excavated at the La Brea Tar Pits.
