Krampus Art Walk

at 634 S. Spring, Los Angeles

On Thursday, December 12, LA’s monthly Downtown Art Walk will be overrun by a  pack of homegrown Krampuses, the horned and furry yuletide devil who accompanies St. Nicholas on his rounds in alpine countries. This European-style Krampus walk will be the first of its  kind in the Western US and feature original suits created over the previous year by the Krampus Los Angeles Troupe.  The public Krampus run or walk – Krampuslauf – is part of a centuries-old tradition, and Krampus LA organizers respect and adhere to that working model. At  these events, Krampuses take to the streets or other public areas waving switches, rattling chains and bells  and otherwise  playfully menacing onlookers with the threat of “punishment” for the “sins” of the previous year.  (NOTE: Krampus focuses his attention almost exclusively on thrill-seeking adults rather than children. Children presented by their parents may be greeted, but never frightened.) This year’s beastly  galumphing will be accompanied by a small marching musical ensemble – Free Range Orkestar substituting authentic Austrian folk music for their usual Balkan repertoire. St. Nicholas will also be along to bestow some friendly blessings and goodies

If you were alive in the 70s, chances are you’ve had a parent, grandparent, or family member who has hung a gloriously tacky piece of velvet art on their wall. More than likely it was a portrait of one of three things: dogs playing poker, Elvis, or Jesus. Thankfully the fuzzy fad died off sometime in the 80s, but at Velverteria, it's still alive and well and… hanging on every conceivable surface. Originally the Velverteria was a Portland staple, but in 2010 the owners Carl Baldwin and Caren Anderson packed up shop and moved all of their 3,000+ works of velvety art to abandoned shop in the Chinatown district of downtown Los Angeles, and that’s where you can where you can find it today. Their new location has new additions, which include the Naked Lady Room, the Hall of Elvis, a vx mysterious room that can only be unlocked if you ask, a portrait of Anderson Cooper in a thong, and the Unicorn Garden of Good and Evil. All and all there are 420 pairings currently on display at the Velveteria, with more and more additions planned for the near future. -Roadtrippers Velveteria is a velvet painting museum curated by owners Caren Anderson and Carl Baldwin. The museum featuring over 420 paintings out of the couples 3,000 piece collection relocated to Los Angeles and opened on December 11, 2013. We have 3,ooo paintings from every corner of the world. Our mission is to celebrate the art and culture of all peoples spreading joy all over this precious Earth. We are excited to see interest from Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia, Brazil, Peru, Europe, the Middle East, Lebanon, UAR Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China and everywhere else. Thanks for your interest. Let's do an exhibit. Your patrons will leave happier than ever. 

The Boy Meets World House

In real life, the Matthews’ house, which was originally built in 1940, boasts two bedrooms, two baths, 2,108 square feet of living space, and a 0.27-acre plot of land.  And, as you can see below, it is absolutely adorable in person and does have a very East Coast feel to it.  It is no surprise at all that producers chose to use it in Boy Meets World.  In fact, I am quite surprised that the dwelling has not appeared onscreen more often, except for the fact that it is located on a very busy street, which filmmakers tend to shy away from. -IAMNOTASTALKER Private property, pls admire from afar, as trespassing is illegal and also rude.
