DIY DAYS speakers and schedule

// November 18th, 2009 // LA

THANK YOU
We’re excited that you’ll be able to join us tomorrow for DIY DAYS LA. The following are a couple logistical issues to help make your experience at the event better.

LOCATION:
Downtown Independent Theater
251 S. Main Street
Los Angeles, California 90012

PARKING
In terms of parking there are a number of parking lots and garages
within walking distance of the theater. The closest is a parking lot
located next store.

6pm to 6:30pm Registration
6:30pm to 10:30pm Program
10:30pm to 11:30pm mixer / party with DJ

REGISTRATION
Opens at 6pm and we recommend you arrive early because we are expecting a large turnout. (If you don’t plan on attending please let us know as we’d like to make some room for others who are on the wait list.)

Another benefit to coming early is that there will be 10 slots available for “one minute” open mic sessions. Now a minute doesn’t sound like a lot but it is enough time to say “What you’re working on and what you’re looking for.” This was a very popular aspect of the last DIY DAYS event in Philadelphia and resulted in some interesting collaborations and networking opportunities. These 10 slots are available on a first come first serve basis. If there is time within the schedule we might go beyond the 10 slots.

BRING A LAPTOP
There is wifi in the space and we encourage you to bring a laptop. There will be some interesting ways for you to participate in the evening and with the speakers themselves.

AFTER PARTY / SOCIAL MIXER
Following the last session there will be an after party / social mixer. It is a cash bar and there will be some drink specials. The proceeds of the cash bar go directly to helping support the Downtown Independent Theater.
