Hi The Strange is Beautiful readers! We’re having a Self-Care Workshop for mind obstacles – such as anxiety and depression – on July 29, 2018 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at Union Swapmeet led by our founding editor-in-chief, Shannen Roberts, and presented by L.A. Sewcial Club.
A bright orange typewriter made out of cardboard sits in the middle of the room. Flowers spring from its keys. On the top of the typewriter, is an offering. Pan dulce and the novel Like Water For Chocolate. Surrounding the typewriter, placed on the stark white walls, are portraits of brown faces and bodies. They seem to stare from every corner, enticing you to read a snippet of their lives.

Thank you @joannathangiah for making this. This is such an important topic to touch base on.
The Strange is Beautiful is having a Spring Trade at Pershing Square on Saturday, April 18 from 2 p.m. – 4 p.m. Bring clothes from your closet and zines, artwork, vinyls, mixed tapes or any DIY goodies to trade! We’ll also collect one treasure from everyone for a white elephant gift exchange so we’ll all leave with something awesome xoxooxx. Plus a photobooth with a spaceship + surprises + posi vibes!
Drink up baby, look at the stars
I’ll kiss you again between the bars
Where I’m seeing you there
With your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught
