Altered Space Gallery
Altered Space wants to get to know you better at this event, that’s why they’re calling it “Don’t Shop.” Of course you will want to browse the unique hand crafted jewelry and art in the store and shop as well! The gallery encourages you to do the following, “come in, enjoy some live music & refreshments, and simply hang out. Get to know what we’re about and become familiar with larger creative community we call Venice Beach.” 6-9pm 1221 Abbot Kinney Blvd
