As you noted, the event reached capacity and we regret we had to turn people away – we really tried to get everyone in but even after we brought out the folding chairs some still ended up sitting on the floor – thanks to Akaider, all three presentations can be seen on You Tube!

One of the main reasons we put on these events is that, now more than ever, there’s a real lack of access to California’s creative economy by LA’s youth – with virtually no visual or performing art classes being offered in our public schools, students often never get a chance to discover their creative talents or develop them into careers they actually enjoy. LAartlab is a self funded, by our pockets, independent project designed to get more young people actively involved in the arts and demonstrate that you don’t always need a pile of money to do something positive. All of our events are co produced and hosted by teens and free to the public – thank you so much for helping us get the word out about Designers Raising Havoc – hope you enjoyed the Kogi!!

Best – Mario!
