Happenings in South Park (not on Valentine’s Day)
HiDef Brewing is Now Audio Graph Beer Co.
The word from a South Park favorite, “HiDef Brewing transforms into Audio Graph Beer Co., we’re embracing an exciting new chapter. Cristina, Trevor, and Lars continue to lead, infusing their deep-rooted passion for precision and innovation into every unique, award-winning beer.” The new name, Audio Graph, “blends an audio engineer's precision with a brewer's craft. It's our ‘Autograph’ on every beer, symbolizing our dedication to quality and our passion for brewing.” We look forward to stopping by a favorite watering-hole to check out the new name - Audio Graph at Olive and 12th as they “honor our legacy while forging a new path to craft the unexpected, resonating with distinction.”
Education in Downtown LA Symposium in March
The future of education in downtown Los Angeles is the focus of a symposium to be hosted by DLANC (Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council) on Saturday, March 23. Time and location to be announced soon.
The event’s focus is to build a collaborative and insightful conversation between educators, residents, organizations, researchers, and policy makers who are committed to improving educational options in DTLA.
Families with school-age children moving out of downtown because of the lack of school choices is a widely held concern. Making downtown a place for families to live needs to include education resources in downtown.
