L.A. Omnibus is a forum for Los Angeles artists, writers, and thinkers to share ideas, pose questions, and uncover our unique communities. Deriving inspiration from the Latin meaning of Omnibus, “for all,” these programs explore how our dynamic city is constantly shifting, settling, and remaking itself. This season, L.A. Omnibus is curated by Raquel Gutierrez.
