Sliding Scale Bodies in Motion: CounterPULSE Benefit and “Total Facts Known” Opens

Growing up, I was a complete theatre nerd, which was a terrible cross of pain for everyone around me, especially when I actually took to the stage. Luckily, the bug’s bite has lessened in its potency but I still love going to shows, which is irritating because they can be

Doc’s Clock: Strong Ales and Loose Women

It’s very rare in this day and age that the stars align perfectly to create a beautiful compilation of art, debauchery, and ladies of the night. Luckily for us, there’s a spot in this wonderful city that offers all three on a regular basis. Doc’s Clock is an eclectic dive

Tomorrow night: FREE Homemade Pie at Omnivore Books

I really love how many events these days are centered around local food, and this one sounds pretty sweet (as in both cool and sugary).  Usually I don’t give a shit, but occasionally I feel just slightly patriotic.  You know, around voting time, the Olympics, and yesterday because of the

FREE Workshop on Health Care and Insurance for the Arts Community

This is fairly appropriate for today considering that I had to cut my road trip short due to sickness.  Seriously, yesterday was one of the sickest days of my adult life.  It was a beautiful day in Los Angeles, and while my friends were at a rooftop pool, I was

The East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse: “Every Teacher’s First Stop and Every Artist’s Second Home”

Maybe you’re a preschool teacher who needs 75 toilet paper rolls for a class project.  Maybe your pants ripped and you need a new button, zipper, or fabric for patching.  Maybe you’re a crafter or artist and need some art supplies.  Maybe you just got an apartment and need some
