Culver City Art Walk
This area, formerly lined with run down industrial and warehouse buildings, auto shops, and such, has achieve a critical mass of sorts with great restaurants, tree lined streets and exceptional art drawing people of all types.

That jazz is so smooth!
We were lucky enough to make it down here for the annual ARTWALK, when most of the galleries are open from 12 to 8 with a number of afterparties extending the hours even later.

Looking closer at this plain pattern reveals it is made up of soldiers
Even with the popularity of this event we didn't have much trouble finding a parking space close enough. Maybe that's part of why this place is blowing up, convenience. It's cheap, right off the freeway and easy to get around.

Bands around each corner
With the Arts District, Helms Bakery District, its revitalized downtown with historic theaters and tree-lined boulevards,Culver City is one of my favorite places in LA. If only we had bought something here 10 years ago is the same sad song heard so often...

Somebody's ready for a rumble...

We were all impressed by this mobile

These mobiles look like they were made with a laser

Which way to the art?

I can't feel my face
