I’ve been on a very very long break. I apologize to my readers. Please follow www.twitter.com/unhipla for some sporadic bits of fun. As always, please rifle through my archives. Also, thanks to my sister for my blog makeover. I’m out shopping for new blog clothes now. Bummed about John Hughes and Michael Jackson? Get your feelings out at the Pretty in Pink outdoor movie screening and PROM on August 8 (suggested donation $10) and the Michael Jackson Tribute Show on August 14 (free). http://hollywoodoutdoorcinema.com/2009/06/lebowski-fest/ Got this from the Citysearch LA mailing list. Sounds like a fun way to meet the like-minded. Friday, August 7, 2009.
Your wedding was picture perfect!
La Venta Inn, Palos Verdes, CA I have found a great network of fellow free fun seekers on Twitter. It’s almost like we’re preaching to the choir. Please follow UnHip LA on Twitter so you can find out some of these great deals. I love Twitter because it’s like a reminder service, alerting me when good things are happening. I particularly like getting tweets from: @markslavkin (arts education director at the Music Center) – lets us know when events such as free Beatles sing-alongs occur @LA_Decostified – always seems to know the latest free meal deal @Levitt_Pasadena - holding a free Michael Jackson memorial concert on Friday, August 14. Be prepared for a mob scene. @shopeatsleep, @FreeFunLA, @LA_Story, @Staycation_LA – all channelers of good fun @IndyShakes – has free Shakespeare productions in Barnsdall Park @BoredLA – let me know about the Korean BBQ festival on August 8. Please follow www.twitter.com/unhipla to get the latest scoops! You can also see an excerpt of my feed on the left side of my blog. Twitter shows that LA truly is a playground. I’ve been spending way too much time on Twitter. I hope you’ll follow unhipla there because I post way more over there than here now. www.twitter.com/unhipla. Sure once the novelty wears off for me, I’ll probably return to these pages. In the meantime, here are some of my recent tweets of things to do in LA: Subversive superhero art show at the Royal T this Fri 7/17. Free! Superhero attire suggested, contests/hero snacks too. Friday, July 17. Sing-along to the Beatles at Keck Aud/ Disney Concert Hall. FREE! arrive 45 min early for tickets

Thursday, July 16, Sing-a-long to Funny Girl at the Ford, part of Outfest: Sounds like fun! Via @LADecostified McDonald’s giving out free 8 oz iced or hot mochas on Mondays till Aug 3.
On Saturday, Beverly Hills hosts a "public art party" to celebrate the work of Yayoi Kusama. I’ve experienced a Kusama installation before at the Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh. It was cool and wacky. This event’s free and the Paley Center for Media will be free as well that day as part of the festivities. http://www.publicartparty.com/ Combine this day with a visit to the Renegade Craft Fair (also free) and you’ll have a great, creative Saturday.
This sounds great! http://www.renegadecraft.com/los-angeles?site=la And it’s free! Learn how to make a linoelum block print and other arts/crafts for free! There will be bands too. And it all takes place on the penthouse level of California Market Center with 360-degree views of downtown L.A. **** UPDATE*** We went to this. It was very cool to see all the great craft-y stuff people made. Creativity was everywhere. It was nice to see that there were people who weren’t technologically obsessed and still making things by hand. Practically everyone was a hipster there in a craft-y sense and no grandma dollies or doilies were around. Most of the vendors were quite shy and that was cute to see, though that probably doesn’t help their businesses. One of the coolest things I saw was The Weekend Store which made vintage recycled jewelry from old typewriter keys. Pics to come. These bloggers have nice posts about the event: http://apatchworkworld.blogspot.com/2009/07/renegade-swap-o-ramarama-recap.html http://milkandeggsco.com/index.php?_a=viewBlog&blogId=34
