LA vs WAR highlights the travesty of a senseless war now going into its 6th year, giving LA artists a platform to exercise their
freedom of speech. Hundreds of artists representing our diverse communities unite in delivering a universal message of peace and
understanding, and offering resistance and opposition to the US government's war policies.
Come see me paint on Saturday, April 12th!
