The Brewery Art Colony
Artist lofts in North Main Street Los Angeles, United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Brewery Arts Complex (also known as the Brewery Art Colony) in Los Angeles has been called the largest live-and-work artists colony in the world. The 16-acre compound sits on twenty-one former warehouses and includes a former Edison power plant chimney dating to 1903, work studios, living lofts, restaurants and galleries.[1] The Brewery is home to practitioners of artistic media that include painting, sculpture, photography, music, industrial design, architecture and experimental new media. More than 100 of the studios are open to the public during the twice-yearly Brewery Art Walk.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
