Artrunner: A Beginning

Artrunner is a convenient place for anyone who is interested in the Los Angeles art scene to check out some of the best and worst works of art on a monthly basis from a cushy chair in your own home. Many of us have the interest but not the time to check out the great art Chinatown has to offer. Artrunner will bring you pictures and commentary as well as keep you updated on gallery openings and closings. It also hopes to inspire you to actually visit the galleries. The goal here is to offer a sneak peak at what is going on so you may determine whether or not you will actually visit the galleries. Our focus here will be on the galleries in the Chinatown Arts District (CAD). In my opinion, the best art in the Los Angeles area can be found in the CAD! Gallery Row in DTLA really does not compare. The CAD art galleries are all huddled up close together so you don't have to walk all over the place as in Gallery Row. Parking is no problem really if you know where to look. There is a residential area just North of the CAD where you can park for free. Few times have I been unable to find parking there.

I hope that at the end of the day this site will have you saying: "Run that art by me again!"
