Frogtown Artwalk

Or is that ArtTown FrogWalk? Keeping in mind that a major portion of this self-guided "tour" -- more like mini festival -- takes visitors through a neighborhood now full of art/artisan studios down to the river, where the frogs walk. Tomorrow, Saturday, Aug. 25, 5-11 p.m. There will be outdoor river-related films. There's a non-self-guided tour of the river by Joe Linton, author of Down By the Los Angeles River. For water transpo, there's a Thai-style long-tail riverboat. Installations. Galleries. All in the shadow of Elysian Park in the dark. Organized by my friend Tracy Stone. At last year's walk, I had the pleasure of watching a fire-spitting organ. I've been having crazy dreams ever since.

As newspapers and television pull back from investigative reporting, foundations and other organizations are beginning to fill the void. One of the most interesting is Accountable California, a project of Local 721 of the Service Employees International Union.
