Long Beach Art Blog

http://www.longbeachartblog.wordpress.com

Hi, my name is Jason and I’m from Sunset Beach, CA. I write a local arts column for the Long Beach Press-Telegram twice a month. The problem is that there are too many art-related events going on in Long Beach to fit into these columns. So, I started this blog. I am really excited about art in Long Beach and because of my unique position, as a an art columnist, I know a lot of what’s going on in the Long Beach arts scene. I’ll try to keep it local, but I am also a huge fan of photography and may post about photographers or other artists that I like.
