What a great weekend!

On Saturday, we did a fun walking tour of DTLA (see previous post) and on Sunday, we had a terrific time with some truly lovely folks at our Secret Craft Crawl in Frogtown.

We painted shells at Forager Crafts, did some collage and watercolors at our gallery at The Blake Lofts and concluded with Origami wind chimes at nana’s gathering art studio - 3 locations, 3 crafts and a really cool way to spend the day!

Thank you to our curious crafters, who came with an open mind, good vibes and some great crafting skills. We’ll do another one in the Spring!

Thank you to everyone that came out yesterday for our Downtown LA Walking tour. What a great group of people! We had so much fun learning more about Los Angeles from Mike Sonksen

There’s so much to explore just in this corridor that includes The Central Library, Bunker Hill, Angel’s Flight, Yhe Bradbury Building and Grand Central Market. So much history, lore, architecture and public art to see!

Stay tuned for more collaborations with Mike Sonksen in the coming months as we create more stellar events like our Literary Lounge by the LA River..

Something witchy this way comes…
looking for something fun and spooky for Halloween?

SISTERS OF THE MOON - FULL HUNTER MOON GATHERING FOR WOMEN

October 25, 2026 (6-9pm)
The Pagan Origins of Halloween - Lecture & Workshop

Join Witch of the Dawn Maja D’Aoust as we peer behind the masks of Halloween and explore the ancient and esoteric origins of the traditions that still haunt—and enchant—our celebrations today.

Maja will journey into the mysteries of the harvest season, exploring the ancient agricultural and Pagan traditions that helped shape practices of communion, offerings and trick-or-treating. Drawing upon shamanic and ancestral perspectives, she will illuminate the powerful relationship between the harvest and the human cycles of birth, death, transformation and renewal.

Sacred to cultures throughout the world, autumn has long been understood as a threshold—a season when we gather what has grown, honor what has passed and remember those who came before us. Together, we’ll explore rituals and beliefs whose roots reach back to the beginnings of civilization.

Sisters of the Moon is a Frogtown Arts gathering created for women to connect, reflect and explore the cycles of nature, creativity and the sacred feminine in community.

TICKETS are $20.00 at www.frogtownarts.com or click LINK in bio.

Location: The Blake Lofts (Frogtown Arts Gallery)
1901 Blake Ave Los Angeles 90039 (enter from front of the building)

Art Brings Us Together. Community Makes Us Shine!

We’re throwing back to a few weeks ago, to the Frogtown Artwalk!

There’s something magical about the Frogtown Artwalk. For one beautiful day, our neighborhood comes alive with art, music, culture, creativity and the unmistakable joy of community.

People of all ages, backgrounds, cultures, and walks of life come together to celebrate what makes Frogtown so special. Neighbors reconnect, strangers become friends, families explore, and artists share their creativity.

From inspiring artwork and handmade crafts to vibrant cultural performances, music and dance, the Artwalk is more than an arts festival. It’s a celebration of our shared humanity, our cultural diversity and the connections that make a neighborhood feel like home.

As we celebrated 20 years of the Frogtown Artwalk, we were reminded that the true beauty of this event isn’t just the art on display. It’s the smiles, the laughter, the friendships and the sense of belonging we create together.

This is what community looks like. Thank you for helping us bring the joy and laughter to everyone that attended, participated and shared in the experience.

Big THANK YOU to our sponsors, we could not have done this without you.

Thank you to our artists, craft and food vendors, small business hosts and to all of you who came out to support from May to October. We love you and we thank you for another great year of First Fridays!
