See You in Chinatown on Saturday

Written by

Chinatown crowd by Gary Leonard

KCRW DJ Anthony Valadez is the king of Downtown LA this week! He was spinning last night at the Downtown Art Walk (and official after party) and returns on Saturday, August 14 for Chinatown Summer Nights. He’ll be on the decks from 8 to 11pm in the Grand Plaza (located just off Broadway at Gin Ling Way).

In fact, KCRW DJs will be rockin’ the dancefloor (literally, they built a dancefloor!) every Saturday this month to provide the soundtrack for this new series, which also includes cooking demonstrations, art installations and video projections, and gourmet food trucks.

The whole event takes place from 5pm to midnight and is sponsored by the Community Redevelopment Agency, Chinatown and KCRW. It’s also ALL AGES, so bring the family.

There’s a full schedule of activities here

Join us and enjoy some photos from last week’s event courtesy of photographer Gary Leonard:
