CHAKRAS

Artronika presents CHAKRAS, an immersive art, music, dance and dining experience at Siesta Day Club + Juice Bar on Sunday, August 25, 2024 from 3-7pm.

In celebration of Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) heritage month, we invite you to join us for a seven course Indian tasting experience – featuring dishes made by Bombay Beach Restaurant. Beverages provided by 101 Cider House.

Cuisine is paired to convey the meaning of each particular CHAKRA, the seven mystical energy centers in the human body. Guests are entertained by live musicians, artists, contortionists, and body painting as they enjoy their tasting experience.

$39 VIP ticket comes with a seven-course tasting experience by Bombay Beach Restaurant plus a free beverage from 101 Cider House. As guests journey through all 7 CHAKRAS, you may also "gain enlightenment" and have the option to become a piece of art too! Patrons can get a limb/face painted by our talented body painting artists.

We also offer a free General Admission ticket that does not include food or beverages.

CHAKRAS takes place at Siesta Day Club + Juice Bar, located near Chinatown at 119 Wilhardt St, Los Angeles, CA 90012

Free street parking and paid public lot are available nearby.

The venue is also located a short walk from the Chinatown Metro A Line Station, and is near Metro bus lines (45, 76, 81, 90, 94, 96) or the Lincoln/Heights Chinatown Dash bus.

CHAKRAS is a part of the CA Creative Corps, which is generously supported by the California Arts Council and administered by Community Partners
