This week from February 17—20, the SPRING/BREAK Art Show returns to Los Angeles with more than 50 exhibitions surrounding the theme “HEARSAY:HERESY.” Debuting with a preview on February 16, the third LA edition of the curator-led fair takes place for the first time within the former factory site of Skylight Culver City.
“For the past seven years, SPRING/BREAK has been an incredible partner to Skylight, bringing creativity and energy to launch new venues across NY and LA,” said Skylight Studios CEO Stephanie Blake.“They share my passion for urban archeology, and the joy of discovering underutilized buildings and transforming them through the lens of art. I’m excited to launch Skylight Culver City together and continue making magic.”
