A $220,000 Getty Foundation grant was awarded to the Pomona College Museum of Art.

The grant will go toward the future exhibition "It Happened at Pomona: Art at Pomona College 1969-1973" under the Getty Pacific Standard Time initiative, according to a Pomona College news release.

"The exhibition will focus on the intensely creative period from 1969 to 1973, when the Pomona College Museum of Art (then the Pomona College Gallery) presented some of the most experimental exhibitions of contemporary art in Los Angeles. The Pomona College Museum and Art Department served as an incubator for artists like Pomona alumni Chris Burden, James Turrell and Mowry Baden, among others," according to the news release.

The exhibit is scheduled to open Aug. 30, 2011 and run through May 13, 2012.

The Pomona College Museum of Art, at 330 N. College Ave., is free and open to the public.

The college is open from noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
