Live music
I have attended almost all the past Art Beyond the Glass events and it’s one of the greatest parties of the year for the LA Cocktail Community. Tickets are still available so I hope to see you there! I’m looking forward to checking out more live music and Resident is a particularly great venue to catch live acts.
