The library is closed, but you’re invited to step into an immersive after-hours world of stories, with interactive art pop-ups, surprising performances, conversations with diverse storytellers and artists, live music and DJs, drinks, and bites throughout the historic Richard J. Riordan Central Library in Downtown Los Angeles.

The night will include performances by BodyTraffic, Carolyn Pennypacker Riggs’ Distance Duet presented by LA Phil Insight, dublab, Bob Baker Marionette Theater, Yesika Salgado, and Urban Voices Project, among others. Get creative with drawing classes offered by Heavy Manners Library, a photo booth with the Black Image Center, and screen printing with Color Compton. And yes, you can get a library card at the event!
