Since I was a teen in Brazil I’ve been fascinated with downtown Los Angeles, from John Fante’s Ask the Dust to Charles Bukowski autobiographical stories of boozing and bar fights. I thought I had explored everything above ground, until we did the Underground LA Tour with Cindy of Cartwheel Art Tours, who did not just View Full →

I could not have asked for a better
guide! Cindy curated a custom tour for a group of beauty clients to inspire them

Doing a mural tour in the Arts District with Cartwheel art is one of the most enriching ways to gain an understanding of public art in Los Angles. If your an Angeleno or a tourist and would like a better understanding of the murals of our city, Cartwheel Art is the way to go.

Don’t miss this tour if you’re looking for something a bit offbeat and new. You won’t be sorry! I took the Arts district Mural Tour on a lark and was so very glad I did! It was very interesting and fun. I definitely saw a lot of murals I wouldn’t have seen otherwise and gained View Full →

Cartwheel DTLA-mural tour is amazing. Murals in public spaces and, to my surprise, murals in private spaces. I never knew that such existed and without Cartwheel, would not have had access to them even if I had known. Along with the murals, Cindy included other notable DTLA locations, such as a brewery and a private View Full →
