18th Street's HOT Summer ArtNight June 18, 2011

Picture a sudden burst of charmingly, colorful yarn and crochet installations sprinkled throughout the entire center, a marketplace of handmade, dazzling jewelry and clothing by a group of talented local artists in the 18th Street Parking lot, open artist-studios by local and international contemporary artists, provocative art installations; accompanied by an electrifying performance on 18th Street’s Outdoor Stage by Los Roor, a Tijuana based arts collective that charismatically blends noise, light, sound, music and video to create a dynamic show. But that’s not it! Highways Performance Space, is presenting its infamous Poetry Slam Battle, which features a hot lineup of politically impelled, fiercely lyrical, quick-witted Spoken Word Artists from all over Los Angeles. And to top it off, 18th Street debuts the opening for their final two exhibitions from its Legacy theme, Jerri Allyn and Inez S. Bush’s Debating Through the Arts: Performance Art Event 3 & Exhibiton and York Chang’s second life project. Don't miss out one of 18th Street's Best ArtNight event yet!
