West Edge Development Sponsors Mural Fest at Their WLA Site on Corner of Bundy and Olympic Blvd

"Pink Cadillac" by the muralist Deity was one of several works by seventeen different artists that were on display

West Edge is a large apartment development on the corner of Bundy and Olympic, which replaced Martin Cadillac. It includes 600 apartments above 200,000 square feet of retail space. They conducted their first-ever Mural Fest on Saturday, July 15th between 11am - 2pm PST.

"Throughout the day," said their press release, "West Edge will offer a variety of activities on The Plaza including face painting, henna, and live music. Guests will get to watch incredible, globally known Muralists including @woes, @annacharneyart, @everydayresearch and more, create works of art across 4,000 square feet of walls on site. In collaboration with non-profit organization Art in Season and West Edge's art director Ania Amador, this is a unique opportunity for local artists and the community to come together in celebration of large-scale art."
