I remember riding the Red Cars all over the city as a kid … I love the current light rail system and take the subway whenever I can. I like to people watch. – Bob Baker, 2005

In collaboration with Bob Baker Marionette Theatre, Metro Art Presents invites folks and friends of all ages to explore the wonderful world of Bob Baker’s Los Angeles, digitally launching from historic Union Station .
