Thanks to everyone who participated in Fun-A-Day-LA 2018! We caught up with friends, made some new ones and saw awesome art. This years show ranged from a felt mobile,  to a 3D printed chess set to 31 photos, homemade soap, blankets for kittens to a conceptual environmental social installation and lots of postcards and alphabets and you could have your future told!

For FADLA artist Claudia Borgna created seven protest signs. Her reaction to our current political climate was so strong it begged to be shared with others. As a token of the fun she had she has shared and prepared two blog posts of her own.

The first annual Fun-A-Day-LA was such a blast we plan on doing it bi-anually! 

On Saturday, February 11 twelve artists came together to share the work they had done in January. This included two live performances! We were treated to the live tap dancing by Afton Coombs and musical delights about outer space by Molly Allis. Their were blankets, felt creations, a board game, doll, photos, protest signs and fine art.
