Saturday, March 28th: Intimate Dinner and Performance with Randy Newman
- Kick off the Venice Design Series with a musical performance by Randy Newman, Academy Award, Grammy Award-winning American composer, songwriter, singer, and pianist.

Don?t miss this special evening of entertainment.
Saturday, April 25th: Inglewood Architecture & Design Tour
Sunday, April 26th: Brentwood Architecture & Design Tour
- Sample the creative vitality in this rapidly changing city, commencing at an historic 1834 adobe house, then moving on to three restored 1938 Rudolph Schindler architectural jewels (with lunch in the garden), visit vibrant artists? studios, affordable housing, and public murals documenting Inglewood life by community activists. The dramatic finish: an architect-led tour of the colossal SoFi stadium before it opens to the public.
Sunday, April 26th: Brentwood Architecture & Design Tour
- Experience the variety of architecture spanning the 20th into the 21st century in one of LA's most affluent neighborhoods.

Quincy Jones, Marmol-Radziner, Cassy Aoyagi, Jay Griffith (list in formation). Enjoy lunch catered by Toscana Brentwood.

The Venice Design Series creates annual architectural tours and events in various neighborhoods in Los Angeles to support the programs at Venice Community Housing, a nonprofit developer/operator of affordable housing and provider of services to low income residents in West Los Angeles. VCH details may be found on the website: www.vchcorp.org
Now in its sixth year, the Venice Design Series takes place every April and May over successive week-ends. It has become a signature Westside event, presenting an eclectic range of architecture, food, and other creative expression in LA neighborhoods, from wow modern architecture to adaptive reuse solutions to grassroots/street art. We call in experts to teach us about local culture and history.
