Today is what is usually one of my favorite days of the month lately.. Art Walk day! It starts earlier in the day but many of the receptions (and the crowds)start at 6pm.. and wrap up around 9pm. Lots of opportunities to see some great (and not so great) art!
One of the new installations tonight is at Pharmaka Gallery; "Rebel Legacy - The Abstract in Latino Art" showing through July 31st. The show is curated by Kathy Gallegos of Avenue 50, (according to the Pharmaka website).
Robert Vargas is showing new work at the mezzanine level of the Spring Arts Collective tonight. There will also be live music at about 8pm.
Another place to check out if you haven't already is the Winstead-Adams Gallery which is owned by the 3BN's own Celia & Jim Winstead. Expect to see a great art supply store called "Raw Materials" opening in the same location in August. ;)
There's way more to see and it's listed on the Artwalk website at:
Downtown Art Walk
But don't forget there's more! Comedy Walk is also the 2nd Thursday and starts around 830-10pm (and you can link to it off the the official ArtWalk website as well).
Downtown Neighbors can also head over to the Los Angeles theatre if they haven't done so already and VOTE for your DLANC representatives. You have til about 8pm I think, (but don't quote me on that!) Just vote early! *grin*

Getting the word out..
While we have you in the mind of voting, don't forget the local Downtown LA Neighborhood Council (DLANC) elections are coming up next week, June 12th.
While out in the Arts District today, I ran into General Jeff as he was seen breaking for lunch during a busy day of campaigning for the Central City East Residential Director position on the Neighborhood Council. General Jeff wants the CCE Skid Row neighborhoods to know that "we need one of our own to make the decisions to better our community."
The way to make things happen and your voice heard is by voting in the DLANC election.
Thursday June 12th, 2008 at the Los Angeles Theatre (that's 6th & Broadway) The polling location will be open from 2-8pm day of election.
There are many new faces and open seats on the DLANC board. While it's too late to make your own bid for office, you can still make a difference by familiarizing yourself with the candidates in your area. One way to do that is of course show up for the DLANC candidate forum tomorrow night at the Palace Theatre, June 4th at 630pm.
Also, be sure and vote next week!

Today (Tuesday the 3rd) is also soft opening for "LIME" the new Mission-style burrito place (with a healthy twist) next door over to Julie Rico's super yummy Weeneez & Red Dot Gallery at 500 S. Spring Street. Voting is hungry work, sure! Rumor is it's cash only and open from 12-3pm for lunch and again later for dinner.
