ARTS DISTRICT

"For the past 30 years, the residents of the Arts District have cultivated a neighborhood... where individuality is expressed and differences are appreciated. These attributes are essential for the production of creative work. The uncommon character and spirit of the Arts District makes it unlike any other neighborhood in Los Angeles."
--Uncommon Ground (click it to get it!)

The Uncommon Ground Workshop was co-sponsored by LARABA & HCNC & hosted by SCI-Arc. Our values, concerns, needs & desires uncovered our top 18 priorities for the future.
Speakers included:

Jan Perry: Councilwoman, District 9   Gail Goldberg: City of L.A. Planning Director
José Huizar: Councilman, District 14   Jerry Neuman: SCI-Arc Board of Directors.
