Zócalo Public Square presents "How Do We Design for Disaster", a dance party under the shadow of DTLA's 6th St. Bridge! 

The back-alley dance party for all features beats by KCRW music director Alejandro Cohen and Dublab DJs Xandão and PayRay. Bringing together communities at both ends of the bridge and across the city, we invite attendees to connect with one another through music and movement and celebrate culture that withstands. 

This dance party is open to all ages. The event is free, and everyone is welcome. Meet us at 698 Mesquit St, Los Angeles, CA 90021 on Saturday, May 16th at 6:30 pm to enjoy live music, bites and drinks, and to show us your best moves!
