LIVE PERFORMANCE
Every show features a unique lineup of live performers — from body painters and aerialists to burlesque and beyond. No two events are the same.
INTERACTIVE
Live figure drawing sessions, interactive photo booths where guests become the photographer or model, and immersive installations. Be the art.
NEXT EVENT: COMING SOON
After four incredible shows, a rebrand, and a pandemic — we’re coming back. Westside LA. One unforgettable night. Intimate capacity. From the raw magic of The Sugar Shack to the packed Art Share LA to the spectacle of Cooper Design Space to Aristocratix’s sold-out intimate sessions — every show has been its own kind of extraordinary. The next one will be too.
