About the event
Don't Quit Now: Protecting Creative Life in Los Angeles
Don’t Quit Now is the opening reception of Extra Extra, a maximalist exhibition and silent auction featuring work by more than 30 artists from nina’s community. We’ll gather top curators, culture makers, donors, and organizational leaders for a lively, timely discussion about how to protect and restore the conditions that allow creative life to flourish in Los Angeles.
Hosted by a special guest and moderated by K. Bradford, nina’s arts programming lead, the evening promises a rousing, honest exchange, plus wine, treats, and a room packed with familiar and talented faces. We’ll also open bidding on the silent auction, which features original artwork, ceramics, books, objects, and one-of-a-kind experiences offered by the artists themselves.
This event is 21+. Valid ID required upon entry.
