A very warm, sunny LA weekend, even my records were starting to melt! That didn’t stop us though. Thank you for sharing the LA sun, drinks, ping pong and tunes over the weekend for the farewell gathering of “Los Angeles, I’m Yours”. It took nearly a week to install the show and a back breaking few hours to deinstall. All the art, wooden crates, and tents miraculously fit in a truck! It was hard to believe, but, we somehow layered everything in there. As always, thank you for coming out to the show…. from the incredible opening reception to the epic night with Portugal. The Man, the show was a huge success and LA really shined. More goodness from us to come, stay tuned!

Artists Leah Chun and Scott Barry catch up.

Artists/graphic novelists, John Pham and Derek Kirk Kim have a little ping pong fun.

Danny was the first to arrive and the last to leave. Clearly, he dominated.

We’ll be having a fun filled closing party on Saturday May 22nd, from noon to 4pm. Everything must go! In market fashion, get ready to put your haggle face on and come and get some great vintage art pieces for the home and select Poketo stuff at a special 15% on this day only! If you have not seen the show yet, May 22nd is your last opportunity.

Not only that, but, we’ll be putting on the first ever “Los Angeles, I’m Yours” Ping Pong Tournament. That’s right, come out and enjoy the sun and play some PING PONG in the Space15Twenty courtyard with us. Sign up to compete and be prepared to earn ultimate bragging rights of being The Los Angeles, I’m Yours Ping Pong Champion! Winner will not only be the envy of friends, but, great prizes and a very special trophy will be awarded. SIGN UP TO PLAY HERE!

Here are some pics of just a few things you’ll find. Come and don’t miss the closing, this Saturday, May 22nd!
