There are plenty of old-school watering holes, hip shops and cafes, plus the Vista Theatre, a 1923 movie palace, and a pair of exemplary Frank Lloyd Wright homes. The neighborhood borders sprawling Griffith Park, beloved by locals for its hiking, concerts at the Greek Theatre and stargazing at Griffith Observatory. 4 ACM PROPERTIES | 3827 EVANS ST, LA 90027 ACMPROPERTIES.COM P:323-662-2772 C: 213-422-2944 LOS FELIZ ATTRACTIONS Los Feliz is the gateway to one of LA’s most beautiful attractions: Griffith Park. But even if you don’t feel like stepping foot in the city’s best park, you’ll find plenty of other things to do in Los Feliz. The Eastside neighborhood manages to balance natural beauty, eclectic shops and cozy eateries with a cool, laidback atmosphere that never feels frustratingly overhyped. From a matinee at a beloved single-screen movie theater to a tour of a landmark Frank Lloyd Wright house, see page 5 for some of the best things to do in Los Feliz. 5 ACM PROPERTIES | 3827 EVANS ST, LA 90027 ACMPROPERTIES.COM P:323-662-2772 C: 213-422-2944 ATTRACTIONS TIMEOUT LOS ANGELES - The Best Things to do in Los Feliz Vista Theater - The historic gem, single-screen Vista Theater plays movies on actual film reels (no digital here) and boasts giant Art Deco light fixtures, kitschy Egyptian-themed wall de- tails and a lovely manager, Victor Martinez, who dresses up for every opening (think: Willy Wonka for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the Joker for The Dark Knight, etc.). The theater is by no means luxury, but its character, spectacular leg room and $6.50 matinees are clear winners. Barnsdall Art Park - After oil heiress and philanthropist Aline Barnsdall bought this cute little hill after the end of World War I, she enlisted Frank Lloyd Wright to build a group of build- ings at its summit. Though the complex was never finished, Barnsdall went on to donate the house, guest house and 11 acres of the Los Feliz-adjacent land to the city on the premise that they be used as a public art park. More than eight decades later, the site still fulfills that role, with exhibitions in the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery as well as tours of the stun- ningly restored Hollyhock House. In the summer, the park hosts al fresco cinema nights, wine tastings and cultural events that bring out a nice mix of singles, couples and young fami- lies. Hollyhock House - This 1921, Mayan-inflected Frank Lloyd Wright house is open for tours on weekends ($7, Thu-Sun 11am-4pm). Frequent flooding of the living room in the (short but destructive) rainy season and seismic concerns kept the house’s life as a domicile short, but lucky for us, a number of renovations and the preservation of Wright’s original furniture have kept this house anarchitectural gem. Griffith Park - It’s easy to forget you’re still in Los Angeles as you trek through the mix of native chaparral and landscaped paths that cover Griffith Park. Where else could you encounter canyons, caves and coyotes in the middle of a city? Griffith is a point of pride for Angelenos, a park to rival all others. Its 4,310 rugged acres harbor hikes and trails, museums and picnic areas, and even a bit of haunted history. In addition to the main entrance, you’ll find Fern Dell, an oasis of shade and rustic charm, just on the edge of Los Feliz. Griffith Observatory - “If every person could look through that telescope,” declared Griffith J. Griffith, “it would revolutionize the world.” More than 80 years after this iconic building opened, the world remains unrevolutionized, but the vista is no less stunning, particularly at night when Los Angeles twinkles below. Inside you’ll find a bevy of exhibits, including a Fou- cault pendulum, Tesla coil and planetarium show. Give yourself plenty of time before the 10pm closing to gaze through the 12-inch refracting telescope on the roof, otherwise you can look through the far less crowded modern, reflecting telescope on the front lawn. Greek Theatre - This pleasant, open-air 6,000-seat theater stages big summer shows by acts both national and local. It’s a bit like seeing a concert in the woods, and rivals the Holly- wood Bowl in terms of LA’s most magical outdoor music venue. The only downside: The “stacked” parking means getting out of the parking lot often takes longer than the show, and VIP “Quick Parking” is a pricey $75. Steve Allen Theater - The Tomorrow Show, a bizarre variety performance with music and comedy, runs every Saturday at midnight here, hosted by hotshot Ron Lynch. The program also often includes fantastic, oddball shows by former Kids in the Hall, Emo Phillips and Marc Maron, among others. A true gem. Since 2012, the space has been officially known as the Trepany House at the Steve Allen Theater. Vintage Los Feliz 3 - Los Feliz’s other old-school movie theater may not be as beloved as the Vista, but it has its own historic charms. The auditoriums at the three-screen cinema are tiny, in some cases not more than a couple of seats wide, but the starry ceiling, neon sign and Art Deco touches make this a unique place to catch a mix of wide releases and indies. Rockwell Table and Stage - This Los Feliz “table and stage” offers lunch and dinner—grab a table inside the restaurant, bar lounge or alfresco patio—alongside live performances (think: cabaret, live bands and comedy shows). Make sure to hit up the stages “Unauthorized Musical Parody” series for campy musical send-ups of cult classic films, and swing by on Wednes- days for a chance to see a very jazzy Jeff Goldblumplay piano. The Dresden - When you walk into this 1950s-era steakhouse, you’ll feel transported back in time: giant white oversized leather booths, a “Continental” menu of steaks, seafood and pasta, and resident lounge lizard duo Marty & Elaine (the pair were featured alongside Vince Vaughan in 1996’s Swingers, and have been performing regularly at the restaurant since 1982.) Soap Plant Wacko - In the clear light of day, does your apartment look like a shrine to mediocrity? Need a collection of Mao Tse-tung wall art or sparkly unicorn floor mats? Spice it up with the freaky offerings at Wacko Soap Plant, known to locals simply as Wacko’s. A curiosity and book store (with a gallery, La Luz de Jesus, in the back), this sprawling retailer offers an exhaustive collection of everything colorful and cool, like Hindu dashboard deities, Betty Page shower curtains, jalapeno string lights, Tibetan statues, Japanese bobbleheads and Mexi- can death figurines. It’s worth spending an afternoon just amusing yourself with the extensive book collection on kitschy art. Shakespeare Bridge - his 1926 span bridges a small valley in the Franklin Hills enclave of Los Feliz. Despite its name, it doesn’t have a whole lot to do with the famous English playwright. Most people pass along the bridge by car, but you can also venture along its narrow sidewalks and Gothic turrets, or underneath its concrete arches on Monon Street. Ennis House - We should tell you upfront that you can’t actually step inside the Ennis House—unless you’re a personal guest of billionaire owner Ronald Burkle. Instead, you’ll have to admire the Frank Lloyd Wright textile block home from outside its front gate. But admire you will: The Mayan temple-like home is a memorable sight, partially owing to its storied use in films like Blade Runner. 6 ACM PROPERTIES | 3827 EVANS ST, LA 90027 Create a map | Mapcustomizer.com ACMPROPERTIES.COM https://www.mapcustomizer.com/ P:323-662-2772 C: 213-422-2944 LOCATION OVERVIEW 3827 Evans St, Los Angeles, CA 90027 (https://maps.google.com/maps?ll=34.107497,-118.274547&z=15&t=m&hl=en-US&gl=US&mapclient=apiv3Report a map error (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.1074974,-118.274547,15z/data=!10m1!1e1!12b1?source=apiv3&rapsrc=apiv3) 200 m Map data ©2017 Google) 1 of 2 11/21/17, 4:39 PM 7 ACM PROPERTIES | 3827 EVANS ST, LA 90027 ACMPROPERTIES.COM P:323-662-2772 C: 213-422-2944 PROPERTY SUMMARY PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS 8 UNITS IN LOS FELIZ Investment Highlights • All units are 2 br, 2 baths, with balconies • 4 units have been recently renovated • Upside in rents • Eight parking spaces/carport • On-sitelaundry facility • Each unit is individually metered for electricity and gas.

  • 12Th National A&E Journalism Awards
    Ben Mankiewicz Tarana Burke Danny Trejo Quentin Tarantino The Luminary The Impact Award The Visionary The Distinguished Award Award Storyteller Award 2019 TWELFTH ANNUAL Ann-Margret The Legend Award NATIONAL ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT JOURNALISM AWARDS LOS ANGELES PRESS CLUB 12TH ANNUAL National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards A Letter From the Press Club President Good evening and welcome to the 12th annual National Arts & Entertain- ment Journalism Awards. Think about how much the entertainment industry has changed since the Press Club introduced these awards in 2008. Arnold Schwarzenegger was our governor, not a Terminator. Netflix sent you DVDs in the mail. The iPhone was one year old. Fast forward to today and the explosion of technology and content that is changing our lives and keeping journalists busy across the globe. Entertainment journalism has changed as well, with all of us taking a much harder look at how societal issues influence Hollywood, from workplace equality and diversity to coverage of political events, the impact of social media and U.S.-China rela- tions. Your Press Club has thrived amid all this. Participation is way up, with more Chris Palmeri than 600 dues-paying members. The National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards have grown and changed as well. Tonight we’re in a ballroom in the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, but in 2008 the awards took place in the Steve Allen Theater, the Press Club’s old home in East Hollywood. That building has since been torn down. Our first event in 2008 featured a cocktail party with no host and only 111 entries in the competition.

    THE AFFIRMATIONS OF HUMANISM: A STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES* We are committed to the application of reason and science to the understanding of the universe and to the solving of human problems. We deplore efforts to denigrate human intelligence, to seek to explain the world in supernatural terms, and to look outside nature for salvation. We believe that scientific discovery and technology can contribute to the betterment of human life. We believe in an open and pluralistic society and that democracy is the best guarantee of protecting human rights from authoritarian elites and repressive majorities. We are committed to the principle of the separation of church and state. We cultivate the arts of negotiation and compromise as a means of resolving differences and achieving mutual understanding. We are concerned with securing justice and fairness in society and with eliminating discrimination and intolerance. We believe in supporting the disadvantaged and the handicapped so that they will be able to help themselves. We attempt to transcend divisive parochial loyalties based on race, religion, gender, nationality, creed, class, sexual orientation, or ethnicity, and strive to work together for the common good of humanity. We want to protect and enhance the earth, to preserve it for future generations, and to avoid inflicting needless suffering on other species. We believe in enjoying life here and now and in developing our creative talents to their fullest. We believe in the cultivation of moral excellence. We respect the right to privacy. Mature adults should be allowed to fulfill their aspirations, to express their sexual preferences, to exercise reproductive freedom, to have access to comprehensive and informed health-care, and to die with dignity.
