Good news all around!

HOW WE DOLA WITH DARIN KLEIN: A FEAST FOR THE FIVE SENSES

We’re asking locals what they’re actually into lately. They pick the topic, we share the list. Every Friday, new person, new subject, maybe a new friend?

Darin Klein has been organizing and curating events and exhibitions across Los Angeles for 25 years. He collects and promotes zines and artist publications, co-founded Scent Fair LA in 2016, and launched the ongoing artist mural project T'ART Gallery Tearoom Art Installations at Akbar in 2024. He is also the Associate Director of Events and Programs at The Broad in DTLA.

After decades of organizing exhibitions, championing independent artists, and building creative communities across the city, he's sharing five places that engage every sense.
