Storefront for Art & Architecture Pops Up in Hollywood

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

As part of LA Art Weekend, which runs through Sunday, the Storefront for Art & Architecture of New York City opened their first of many worldwide temporary pop-up stores in Los Angeles last night.

What are these pop-up stores? Well, they are becoming quite ubiquitous, albeit in spurts, around the city. Trendwatching.com rhetorically answers: "If new products can come and go, why can't the stores that display them do the same?" The show at Paperchase Printing on Sunset near La Brea (they gave up part of their printing space for this) runs through May 17. Hours and locations details can be found below the gallery.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.
