Inspired by Highland Park’s existing practices of clothing swaps, book exchanges, and lending circles, LA Más aims to promote economic solidarity with the Northeast LA Community Exchange Fair. This event will feature non-monetary exchanges of goods
and services – uplifting the cultural ways that working-class communities of color exchange resources outside of the mainstream economy. Throughout the day, local vendors, artists, and community organizers will lead youth activities; art workshops such as screen-printing and natural dye printmaking; live music; and knowledge-sharing conversations between neighbors.
