The Seattle Punk Rock Flea Market is part renegade art gallery, part unfathomable yard sale and part curated vintage mall, showcasing a blend of creativity and commerce.

Dolores Huerta's 1974 rally photo captures her in a United Farmworkers sweater vest, symbolizing activism and cultural identity, featured in 'Chicano Camera Culture.'

"I started Wheels of NYC as an Instagram page of parked cars in the city. No events, only photos."

The free, family-friendly celebration will feature a block party on Valencia Street, spanning 15th to 18th Streets, and will include a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

So Year of the Horse, it's energy, it's passion, it's momentum so a lot of things that we're really hoping to embody in the new year. We're in the home stretch. We've got a couple of days left and we've got a nice little team that's cranking out all the finishing work that needs to go into it.

Because this is the year of the horse, we have to have something different. So, we are doing a chopstick dance. The chopstick dance comes from Mongolia, an area known for its large grassland areas and the historical use of horses.

We really try to be cutting-edge, but it has to have a feeling that is comfortable. Our biggest goal is for somebody to walk into our warehouse and say, 'Oh, my God. I want to live here.'

The Greater Los Angeles area is home to the largest concentration of people of Iranian descent outside Iran. Since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, it has served as a capital for exiles. By 2019, more than half of Iranian immigrants to the U.S. lived in California, with 29% - nearly 140,000 people - living in Los Angeles County alone.

Thousands of cheering fans surround the ice at the Honda Center. The arena is loud, packed with fans in Anaheim Ducks jerseys. As the puck drops and the action starts, players zoom back and forth until - boom! A shot, and the Ducks score. But when the music hits for the first goal of the game, it's not the typical "We Will Rock You" by Queen. It's "Come Out and Play" by local heroes, and one of Orange County's most influential punk bands, the Offspring.

This was 1980 or '81, she reckons, just after she'd come off the road playing percussion for the jazz star George Duke; by 1984, she'd become a star herself with the pop hit "The Glamorous Life," which she cut with her mentor Prince and which went to No. 7 on Billboard's Hot 100. Over the decades that followed, Sheila E. went on to record or perform with everyone from Ringo Starr to Beyoncé.

The world certainly doesn't need another classic car concours. Barely a year goes past without a new luxurious car event popping up on the lawn of a stately home, hotel or golf course. But the Peninsular Classics Best of the Best isn't a concours event - it's the Oscars of the classic car world, complete with Hollywood greats like Nicole Kidman. This year, the top honors were awarded to a rather beautiful 1938 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B.

Through throwback posts, people have been traveling back to the year when dog and flower crown Snapchat filters, Instagram eyebrows, the mannequin challenge and the Chainsmokers were everywhere. But why, you may ask? On social media, 2016 is remembered as the last carefree era, a time when people posted whatever they wanted without overthinking it, when folks actually danced at parties instead of pointing their phones at the DJ booth to "capture content."

We're just a week away from Frieze LA, when East Coast dealers and local artists alike descend upon the Santa Monica Airport, but this isn't Renée Reizman's first rodeo. Since the critic and artist moved to the area almost 15 years ago, she's witnessed blue-chip New York galleries set up shop and sideline the irreverent, DIY spaces that shape the local art scene. Without these spaces, Reizman writes, she would not have discovered what art can be outside of the white cube.
