Bringin' Art to the People

 


Watch CBS News Videos Online

We all know that when funds are low in our economy, the arts are one of the first institutions to suffer.  In response to this, some well-to-do art collectors in California have come up with a great way to share their prized art possessions with the public, while keeping our LA museums afloat as well.  

 

 

"Keepin' Heads Warm"  -  December 25, 2009

The original plan was to hit up the rescue missions, and donate the 250 wool caps. But if you stop to think about it,

that's what most people do! They drop off donations, and never really interact with these people- I don't know about you

but to me that sounds a bit half-ass. In the end we decided to hand out half of them ourselves, and donate the other half to

the mission! Our buddy, George, and his wife arrived unexpectedly to give a helping hand which was a nice surprise!!

So, the 4 of us walked up, down, and around the 4th & Wall St. area/s passing out wool caps to our fellow man. At the end

of the day we laughed, and agreed to come better equipped next year with more caps!

you got a minute come say hello, or drop in to pick up some gear!! Donation begins promptly at 12pm at the 7th & Wall

intersection, and go on till the box is empty!! We wish you all a Merry Christmas!

 

 

 

1 year ago!! - December 20, 2009

 

We were sorting through old photos the other day, and came across this one!

We had been experimenting with the idea of putting out shirts in the near future,

I don't even think we were a legit company at this time, and so we asked a friend

of a friend- (Scotty) to get experiment with The BLAS logo... Here is Scotty, 1 yr ago,

testing out our BLAS Logo for the very first time at the Gower apartment!

PHOR Thursdays - December 3, 2009

 

Come check out the homies venue, every thursday in the LA Arts District!!!

There's nothing commercial about this spot, the music is dope, and each week

a new LA based Dj headlines... It's a great escape from the same thing going on

night after night with most the Hollywood clubs. If you want something new this

one's a must!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jayden James - October 17, 2009

 

We had a long discussion here at The Blas, and decided it was time

to go out and meet a pornstar! So we went on a mission earlier today

and happened to catch up to Miss 'Jayden James' in the city of Upland at

a little place called The Toy Box! Here is one of our salesmen Peter with

the beautiful Jayden, who turned out to be really nice!
