Join us May 26th for an inside look at an LA music powerhouse, KCRW. If you've ever wondered how the magic at this iconic radio station happens, you will not want to miss this one. The tour will combine a overall look at the station with a focus on one of KCRW's contributions to the design community, their daily radio show DnA: Design & Architecture. The host of the show, Frances Anderton, will lead the tour and provide insight and information on both.
