For those looking for something fun and different to do, the Brewery Artwalk is holding its spring Artwalk on May 3 and May 4 with two days of open studios on Main Street in Lincoln Heights, just east of the LA River. A venerable institution, the Brewery Artwalk is in its 41st year of welcoming the public to this twice-yearly event. It is a truly unique opportunity to explore the campus – a fascinating jumble of former industrial buildings that were once home to East Side Tap Brewery, and later Pabst Blue Ribbon – is now home to hundreds of artists and creatives, many of whom will be opening their studios during the weekend. Visitors will find nearly every discipline represented and have the pleasure of meeting artists in their studio, which is a wonderful way to fall in love with original art. 

Start your art collection with a connection to the person who made it and there will be a story to go with the artwork, which adds layers of meaning to the experience and the memories of your visit. 

This event is for everyone! From families to first time buyers, collectors to curators, experienced art denizens to young kids experiencing the art world for the first time. Get a jump on starting your art collection, or add to it with new work, by visiting the Brewery Artwalk. It’s a free event, and is sure to be a great day of exploring and seeing! There will be a beer garden in the middle of the complex with a menu of on-the-go food, plus an array of food trucks on Moulton and Avenue 21. 

Free parking is available at the UPS facility on Moulton Avenue. Brewery Artwalk is open Saturday and Sunday, May 3 and May 4, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. It is located at 1920 N. Main St. in Los Angeles.
