The Brewery Art Colony

The Brewery Arts Complex (also known as the Brewery Art Colony) in Los Angeles has been called the largest live-and-work artists colony in the world. The 16-acre compound sits on twenty-one former warehouses and includes a former Edison power plant chimney dating to 1903, work studios, living lofts, restaurants and galleries.[1] The Brewery is home to practitioners of artistic media that include painting, sculpture, photography, industrial design, architecture and experimental new media. More than 100 of the studios are open to the public during the twice-yearly Brewery Art Walk.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

gollark: As far as I can tell, basically every website supports HTTPS nowadays, but DNS over HTTPS is still rare partly because of governments and ISPs being annoying about it.
gollark: I mean generally. Look at DNS. They didn't even have DNS over HTTPS or DNSSEC until fairly recently, and they're still not widely used.
gollark: Yeeees, it's weird how people didn't seem to even consider security and privacy in lots of computer things until seemingly recently.
