On the Scene - A walk through the downtown Artwalk


what: Downtown Art Walk
when: second Tuesday of the month, every month
times: noon-9pm
cost: FREE

The LA Artwalk was launched in 2004 in an attempt to bring people back to the streets after dark. Half a decade later, things are well underway as thousands flood the streets seeking their next affordable & accessible artistic wall piece.

The Freeloader staff caught the subway in to tour the scene
and my oh my what a scene it was...
There were Free Looks & Donation Drinks galore as we toured
through some of the downtown area's most interesting spaces.
The streets were wild with art in all it's various expressions, bands, djs, & street performers set the musical mood as you wandered through visual splendor. It's hard not to admire the hands of anyone who can build something beautiful.

Taking place just a block from the Historic Pershing Square, this is most definitely an event worth writing down.
