eNewsletters That Rock: ExperienceLA

We feel like this one is a given; having only around 8,000 subscriptions says otherwise. If this e-mail list got up to 800,000 subscriptions, the face of arts would change in Los Angeles.
ExperienceLA.com is a project of various government agencies, but mainly the baby of the Los Angeles County Arts Commission. The goal: an easy, visual way to find out what's happening in the city, culturally for the most part, and tie it into public transportation. A worthy goal, but still useful for the car-dependent.
Their weekly eNewsletter comes at the end of the week and gives the heads up on featured festivals, theatre, music and more. Always themed, always pithy, ExperienceLA is the way to go for your cultural digestion.
