Rebuild:LA Episode 059: Marking the First Anniversary of the January Firestorms WITH US

Send us Fan MailWith Us, an immersive art exhibit in the Arts District of downtown Los Angeles, has opened, and it is a compelling experience for anyone who visits. Extreme Weather Survivors and the Department of Angels collaborated to produce the installation, which brings together video, still photography, original art pieces, and the compelling survivors’ soundscape you’ll hear in this episode. Our anniversary show was recorded directly from the exhibit. We collected short interviews with those who’ve spent the last year helping fire survivors, and we’ve added them to the soundscape graciously shared by the With Us collaborators. This episode of Rebuild:LA pays tribute to the thousands of Angelenos who survived the fires, and the tens of thousands of people who have stepped up over the past year to help.The With Us exhibit is open to all for free, from January 4th through the 7th, from 12 noon to 7:30 pm at the City Market Social House in the Arts District in downtown Los Angeles.
