It's a bold plan to turn notoriously unequal and sprawling Los Angeles into a community-oriented, resource sharing city for all. To read the full plan for Share LA and vote for them, visit the LA 2050 GOOD Challenge.

This event will kick-off a new "First Fridays" event series. This is organized by the Echo Park chapter of the Arroyo S.E.C.O Network of Time Banks. The First Friday of April we will meet at the Echo Park Film Center and watch some short films made by members of the community and have a chance to meet members from the community. This event is open to everyone of all ages, including non-timebank members..

There will be Potluck snacks before the films, and Questions & Ansers after. Socializing is encouraged. We ask for 1 Timedollar from Timebankers and a donation of your choice from non-Timebankers. Any money raised will be split between the ASNTB and the Echo Park Film Center. If you bring food to share or help with the event, you will get your Timedollar back!

If you have a short film to show, the deadline for submissions has has passed, but we plan to hold this event again in the future so look out for the next call for submissions!

L.A. Eco Village: 20 Years as a Model of Sustainable Living By George Villanueva | KCET on December 19, 2013

Born in 1993, in the same 90004 zip code where I was born and raised, the Los Angeles Eco Village (LAEV) has embodied what cooperative living can be when a collective of people commit to ideals of community and sustainable urban space. Last week the LAEV celebrated its 20 year anniversary with a fundraiser event, marking their enduring pledge to sustainable living. LAEV is nestled within a two block stretch of Bimini Place and White House Place, off of First Street, just east of Vermont Avenue. The space includes cooperative affordable housing, native landscape, on-site food growth, micro social enterprises, a community land trust, pedestrian-friendly streetscape, bike-friendly amenities, and a host of democratic community-building activities. To visit is to not only feel the history of community transformation, but also be inspired about what a more livable L.A. can exemplify.
