SUMMARY:Library of Technics presents: Community Repairs at DTLB Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Community Repairs by LOT at DTLB Farmers Market\nFirst Fridays | Downtown Long Beach Farmers Market\, 300 N Promenade 10am-12pm \n\n  \n  \nLOT station approaches repair as thinking-through-making. Items brought to the station are first inspected and discussed by the team. Priority is given to vintage objects\, heirlooms\, items with sentimental value\, and repairs that present interesting or conceptual challenges. Work carries a civic ethic\, sharing methods\, demystifying tools\, and treating repair as a public\, creative act rather than a utilitarian chore. \nThis is not a drop-off for free repair service; participation\, learning\, and intention are central to the process. \nFixing broken things foreground attention\, improvisation\, reuse\, and the dignity of craft. Not to hide repairs but lets them remain visible\, allowing brackets\, patches\, and odd joins to become part of an object’s story. Process matters more than polish\, and working with the hands becomes a way of thinking rather than simply solving a problem. \nBy repairing in public\, Community Repair aims to narrow the distance between buying and discarding\, encouraging more thoughtful relationships with materials\, labor\, and consumption. \n  \n\nStay tuned here to find out more information \nDTLB Instagram \nDTLB LinkedIn \nDTLB website

SUMMARY:Music to My Eyes: Student Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Incredible music-inspired art by talented Long Beach H.S. students from Renaissance\, Millikan\, and St Anthony. Creativity on full display! \n\n\n\nSTUDENT ART PROJECT\nMulti-discipline art expression with music\, paint\, and photography. \nLocal high school art students were assigned a song\, preferably one they were not too familiar with\, and were tasked with painting what the song inspired in them. \nSongs from genres as different as jazz\, hard rock\, classical\, and from the Great American Song Book\, were selected from multiple sources considered as “the greatest songs of all time” and assigned randomly to the artists who signed up for the project. \nThe students were instructed to listen and ingest the music\, to let the song capture the imagination and inspire their art. Students were encouraged to listen to the music on repeat during their creative process. \nCreative Class Collective was eager to see how each song inspired the artist’s interpretation of the music. \nPlease enjoy this incredible collection created from the hands of the talented aspiring artists from across the city. \n\nSaturday\, April 11\, from 5pm to 7pm\, at the Edison Theatre\, 213 Broadway\, Downtown Long Beach.  \n\nPlease RSVP here:  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/music-to-my-eyes-student-exhibition-tickets-1986551578247?aff=oddtdtcreator \n  \n\nDTLB Instagram\nDTLB LinkedIn\nDTLB website

SUMMARY:Library of Technics presents: Community Repairs at DTLB Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Community Repairs by LOT at DTLB Farmers Market\nFirst Fridays | Downtown Long Beach Farmers Market\, 300 N Promenade 10am-12pm \n\n  \n  \nLOT station approaches repair as thinking-through-making. Items brought to the station are first inspected and discussed by the team. Priority is given to vintage objects\, heirlooms\, items with sentimental value\, and repairs that present interesting or conceptual challenges. Work carries a civic ethic\, sharing methods\, demystifying tools\, and treating repair as a public\, creative act rather than a utilitarian chore. \nThis is not a drop-off for free repair service; participation\, learning\, and intention are central to the process. \nFixing broken things foreground attention\, improvisation\, reuse\, and the dignity of craft. Not to hide repairs but lets them remain visible\, allowing brackets\, patches\, and odd joins to become part of an object’s story. Process matters more than polish\, and working with the hands becomes a way of thinking rather than simply solving a problem. \nBy repairing in public\, Community Repair aims to narrow the distance between buying and discarding\, encouraging more thoughtful relationships with materials\, labor\, and consumption. \n  \n\nStay tuned here to find out more information \nDTLB Instagram \nDTLB LinkedIn \nDTLB website
