Downtown
Artist's Guide

The Downtown Los Angeles'
Guide to Downtown artists
Get Listed!
www.downtownartistguide.org
The Downtown Artist Project goal is
to help local artists benefit from the growth of downtown LA and resist being swept away by it.

We are creating an online
Artist Resource Guide to give
downtown businesses and residents access to local talent. It will not only feature local fine art, but
graphics, illustration, photography,
interior decoration, and any other
creative skills artists use to make a
living will be promoted.
This will keep some of the money being spent transforming the area in the local economy.

All artists living and working Downtown are invited to sign up and give us a list of their skills and their contact numbers, email address and/or url link.
We will provide free web sites and email accounts to artists without them.

Members will be also be put on the
DAP group email list, so they can post
messages to all the other artists who sign up.

So sign up and be included!

DAP is an Ad hoc committee of the
Arts, Aesthetics, Culture & Education
Committee of DLANC
(Downtown LA Neighborhood Council).
