The exhibition will run from February 14th through March 3rd.

Based in Los Angeles, INNOCNTS started as an art gallery in Silver Lake and has gradually grown into a larger movement of friends and like-minded individuals. INNOCNTS has strong connects to art, surf, and skate communities and continues to present authentic projects and persons doing things their own way.

However, this does not include any other fines related to equipment restrictions or lack of permits. This also means that while a vendor can’t be cited for vending in areas like the Hollywood Walk of Fame anymore, they can still get cited for other city regulations.
