Arts District BID Branding Initiative 2012

Through the combined efforts of local property owners, business owners and residents, Downtown LA’s Arts District has gone through a significant transformation during the past five years. During this same time, the Arts District Business Improvement District’s implementation of enhanced safety programs, maintenance programs, and economic development initiatives are helping turn a once-decaying sector of the City into a thriving gem that is only headed upwards.

The Arts District BID is looking to capitalize on the buzz created by this transformation and to bolster the return on investment for property owners and others who have invested significantly in these initiatives.

By establishing a strong, consistent, and clearly articulated identity, the Arts District can properly celebrate its accomplishments and position itself for the development and growth to come.

The BID is proud to announce its partnership with Innovation Protocol (IP), an award-winning international strategic brand development company. IP is uniquely positioned to assist the Arts District BID: its corporate headquarters is located on Traction Avenue in the Arts District. Visit their website: http://www.innovationprotocol.com/

As we kick-off this exciting venture, IP and the Arts District BID first need to hear from YOU. Your thoughts, impressions and ideas will help us design a strategic brand development program that will achieve the short term and long term objectives of the Arts District Business Improvement District.

You may have already seen posters (attached) inviting everyone in the Arts District community to participate in a conversation about the Arts District on March 1. Please see the poster for exact details. (And if you can’t make it that day, let us know. We have options!)

Thank you for your support of the Arts District BID. We look forward to continuing our service to the Arts District community. Please contact us if we can be of assistance.

AIA|LA Mayoral Candidate Forums

The AIA|LA MAYORAL CANDIDATE FORUMS

PRESENTED BY MATT CONSTRUCTION 

 PLEASE JOIN US on Friday, February 17 (7pm) for our first mayoral candidate forum with COUNCILMEMBER JAN PERRY.

 (FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC W/ ADVANCE REGISTRATION :: CLICK HERE)

 Please join AIA|LA and 2012 President Stuart Magruder, AIA as we coordinate a series of candid discussions with prospective Mayoral Candidates for the City of Los Angeles. Moderated by Los Angeles City Planning Commission President, Bill Roschen, FAIA and Los Angeles Times Architecture Critic, Christopher Hawthorne, the forums will serve as an opportunity for a diverse constituency to learn more about each candidate’s vision for the future of our city and the actions they will take to ensure we get there.

While environmental and economic sustainability, resource conversation, enhanced mobility and access, community health, social justice and planning for complete communities are all integral tenets of architecture, we’d like to evolve the conversation beyond those holistic fundamentals. We’d like to talk about what our city looks and feels like! What’s it like to experience Los Angeles and how can we build upon that experience to ensure we have a city that remains economically competitive with other world-class destinations?

AIA|LA will ask each mayoral candidate provocative questions centered on the importance of architecture, urban design and city planning and create a score card to highlight and contrast each candidate’s response.

If you care about Los Angeles and want to contribute to the dialogue that will move our city forward with an emphasis on the importance of design excellence, then come spend your Friday nights in February and March with AIA|LA and get to know the mayoral candidates!

Thanks to the generous contribution of MATT CONSTRUCTION, this event is free and open to the public with advance registration.

Each forum will be held at the Ron Deaton Civic Auditorium at the LAPD Headquarters Building in Downtown, Los Angeles.

To register for each forum, please click on the following:

Friday, February 17 (7pm – 9pm) – Mayoral Candidate Jan Perry
