Slumber Party Tonight!

Hey L.A.! Finding little joy in the same old scene? Why not venture beyond your well-trodden turf to celebrate the first anniversary of Historic Monument 157, aka the Church of Fashion, in Lincoln Heights?

For the past year my friends Charon (Tricky Poodle) Nogues and Reid Maxwell, along with a shapeshifting band of artists and musicians in residence, have been hosting events in a ramshackle Victorian house that has shades of both Haight-Ashbury circa '66, and the Munsters. The space has seen roller skating, square dancing, bands galore, movies, medicine women, urban activists, and impromptu fashion shows. I snapped the pretty babies above (apologies for the blur...that's mistress of ceremonies Tricky in the silver) at a birthday party earlier this summer. You truly never know what you will find.

Tonight the entertainment includes hunky hobos Eben Stewart and Frank Fairfield and burlesque by Jewel of Denial. All guests are invited to bring their sleeping bags and wake up to huevos and nopales in the AM.

Hope to see you there: 3110 N. Broadway, L.A.
