The celebration will include a ribbon cutting and toasts at 2 p.m. and will feature musical entertainment by local performers and refreshments. The exhibition, “REUSE • REPAIR • RECONSIDER,” by artist Lesia Sochor will be on display.
After months of planning, renovations and relocating – LA Arts has opened their new headquarters – an impressive and expansive mixed-use space housing a gallery, performance area, kitchenette and office. The organization has an ambitious lineup of programming and partnerships. The event offers a chance to network with community members, share your own ideas, and discover ways to get involved.
