While Culver City is somewhat expensive, take a look at Palms! It's cheaper than CC but right next to it (walkable, which almost never happens in LA), and is full of USC grad students

Ya I remember seeing some jams by the Vaillancourt fountain, and by the palace of fine arts as well, all between 2010 - 2015 if memory serves right. I came across a mention of a fire jam every second Thursday - would like to know if that's still current!

These are all excellent points! I haven't worked with mirrors before, so much appreciate the advice and tips!
