Richard Foss & COLLAGE Amplifying the Social Capital of San Pedro and Beyond
from Angel City Culture Quest · host Richard Foss - Guest, Melina Paris - Host, Music by Terence Toy, Edited by Douglas Johnson
In this episode, hear about why COLLAGE became a nonprofit as opposed to simply a venue and the good work its doing to help students in the Los Angeles region. "I have a sense that music can give people a reason to live, a reason to stay alive. So, rather than just run shows, I want to do something more than that," — Richard Foss.COLLAGE is a beautiful venue, built in the 1930's, featuring art deco styling both original and recreated by George Wytovich. It’s intimate and relaxed, seating 49 and the inside is more modern and visually interesting thanks to aged brick walls, a curved wooden ceiling with open beams. COLLAGE is best known for concerts, but also offers art classes, poetry events, storytelling, culinary events and much more. The venue presents both live shows and live streams for many of its events. https://www.collageartculture.org ~ COLLAGE is located at 731 South Pacific Ave., San Pedro
