Enjoy a Day Filled with Art, Plus a Free Opera Recital

Choose your own adventure with a free day of art and music in the heart of DTLA

Dive into a vibrant arts and culture scene on Saturday, October 19 as LA Opera returns to Grand Ave Arts: All Access. Now in its eighth year, this free community festival invites Angelenos to explore the heart of downtown LA with a lineup of performances, workshops, and activities from the city's leading cultural institutions.

The historic Dorothy Chandler Pavilion opens its doors to the public for two free recitals beneath our glittering chandeliers. LA Opera's Young Artists perform fan-favorite classics, plus highlights from this season's productions. The LA Opera Connects team will also be on The Music Center Plaza with family-friendly arts and crafts in honor of our upcoming Romeo & Juliet.
