The Pancakes & Booze Pop-Up Art Show Returns To L.A.

Eat free pancakes and drink booze while checking out art and music from emerging, local talent when this massive art show returns this month. The Pancakes & Booze Art Show is billed as "L.A.'s largest underground art show" and after making appearances all over the country and abroad, it will return to its city of origin on November 21 and 22. This event will feature works by over 150 artists in a wide variety of mediums at a 10,000 square foot warehouse in the Arts District. And, yes, included in the $5 admission will be free pancakes served at the "Pancake Bar." There will also be a regular bar with booze for purchase. So, you see, it's not just a catchy, clickbait name to get you to see art.

The show will also feature bands playing throughout the two-night event, according to their Facebook page. And, there will be live body painting, burlesque and other performances yet to be announced. There will also be the requisite photobooth, though we can't say it will be offering pancake selfies as much as we would hope. The pancakes will be served up by "Famous Pancake Master Chef" Steve Kriozere, who also happens to have written and produced for shows like Castle, V.I.P., Femme Fatales, N.C.I.S., and the upcoming series Agent X.

With a difficult-to-resist title, the unique art show is known for drawing huge crowds and the organizers are expecting around 4,500 people this time around. While general admission tickets will be $5—cash only—at the door, you can save yourself a long wait for pancakes, booze and art, by purchasing a VIP "Skip-the-line" pass for $10 (plus service fee) ahead of time.

The Pancakes & Booze Art Show will take place at Lot 613, 613 Imperial St. in the Arts District from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. on November 21 and 22.
