Where: KGB Studios 1640 N. Spring St, LA CA 90012
Why: To showcase a grittier side of life that often features lesser known
parts of the city and characters overlooked by the rush of society. To
provide a window into the original, non-commercial, side of graffiti and
street culture in Los Angeles. As the popularity of art in the streets
increases globally, so does the importance of documenting the origins
of graffiti in its purest form. If we don't record our history accurately, then
who will?
Please join us this Saturday, April 26, from 4pm to 9pm, @KGB gallery,
enjoy the art, food, and music provided by Dj Muzik77. Hope to see you
there.
