The legendary party Sex Cells is back for one night only. Special Guests TBA. Born in 2017 , Sex Cells is not just a party—it’s a cultural phenomenon. Unlike anything before or since, it exploded onto the underground scene as a haven for the beautifully bizarre, a chaotic collision of music, fashion, and raw, unapologetic self-expression. A fusion of punk, goth, and queer club culture, Sex Cells has played host to an electrifying mix of performers, from electroclash icons to industrial legends, drag superstars, and boundary-pushing artists. With its signature mix of sleaze, glamour, and debauchery, Sex Cells transforms every venue into a neon-drenched, leather-clad, latex-wrapped fever dream. Past guests have included cult favorites like Marc Almond, Brooke Candy, Azealia Banks, TR/ST, Kim Petras, Amanda Lepore, Cold Cave, and many more—proving that this is more than just a party; it’s a statement. The demand for Sex Cells never stopped. Year after year, fans and performers alike have begged for its return, craving the energy, the spectacle, and the untamed spirit that can’t be found anywhere else. There was nothing like it before, and there will be nothing like it after—this is the party that rewrote the rules . With a fearless and subversive vision, Sex Cells is a celebration of sexual liberation, underground subcultures, and the freaks who refuse to fit in. Whether you're looking to dance until dawn, witness jaw-dropping performances, or lose yourself in a crowd of misfits and muses, Sex Cells is where the underground comes alive. Come dressed to shock, stay to be seduced. Information Source: Lethal Amounts | eventbrite

Dharma Art Productions Presents: Chöd: Cutting Through with Isaiah Mitchell and friends – Live Music + Psychedelic Artwork + Guided Meditation Enter the charnel ground and cut through the demons of ego-clinging with a live avant-garde electric guitar performance by Isaiah Mitchell (Earthless), featuring original animated artwork by Arik Moonhawk Roper and guided meditation by Doc Kelley (Psychedelic Sangha). We will also be debuting some new visuals by artist Yosuh Jones . Chöd “to sever, to cut” is a Tibetan meditation practice, first developed by the eleventh-century yoginī Machig Labdrön, that aims to cut through the demons of hindrance and obscuration that block our realization of our true nature. The practitioner of Chöd seeks to utilize the power of fear to cut through ego-clinging. Machig Labdrön writes, “… [T]here is no greater devil than this present ego-clinging, and because of this all the devils will rear their ugly heads as long as one has not severed this clinging to ego.” Join us for this immersive Dharma Art experience in the auditorium at PRS! BIOS Arik Moonhawk Roper attended the School of Visual Arts in New York from 1991-1995 specializing in cartooning, illustration, and screen printing. He has since developed a devoted following creating seminal record covers and screenprint posters for a wide variety of bands including rock and metal legends such as Earth, Sunn O))), Sleep, Howlin' Rain, High on Fire, The Black Crowes, Kvelertak, Cathedral, Astra, Earthless, and Windhand among many others. His influences include diverse artists and styles ranging from comic and fantasy art to graphic design and classic illustration. Roper’s work encompasses a diverse field of design and distinct style, ranging from black and white illustration, to meticulous lettering and logo design, to rich abstract psychedelic color and landscapes that often seem to exist in their own universe. The imagery springs from the depths of a fertile imagination, invoking psychedelic visions, ancient dreams, and idyllic natural environments. With an interest in mythology, consciousness, psychology, religion and other timeless subjects, Roper mixes the light and the dark within his art to reveal imagery which is at once strangely unique, distantly familiar and always soaked with an earnestly fantastic aesthetic. His book, Mushroom Magick (Abrams, 2009), is a vividly surreal collection of exotic fungal species from around the world. His art has also appeared in books such as De Gotham City a Metropolis by French Paper Art Club, Juxtapoz New Contemporaries, Revisionaries: A Decade of Art in Tokion, Appendix N: The Eldritch Root son Dungeons & Dragons, and Taschen's Plant Magick. His collected art book Vision of the Hawk: The Art of Arik Moonhawk Roper was published by Strange Attractor Press in 2023. www.arikroper.com Isaiah Mitchell is a guitar player based in San Diego, California and has been playing professionally for 25 years. His band Earthless has toured the world many times over during this time. Isaiah has been involved in Buddhist and Hindu teachings since he was a teenager and has found that bringing the insights from these books into his guitar playing brings a state of awareness much like the meditative states one experiences in silent meditation. This is the focus point of what he does while playing. How close can we get into the present moment and touch the divine and express the feelings within outwardly with sonic sounds? Music is painting in the air, a journey to show us who we are and what we are capable of. And to help others on their journey. All is One and feeling this it it’s completeness is the goal. Doc Kelley teaches Buddhism and Asian religion at Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts, The New School University in New York City. He is also the founder of Psychedelic Sangha; a non-sectarian and non-traditional spiritual community for Psychedelic Buddhists and Buddhistic Psychonauts. He earned an M.A. in Buddhist Studies and a Ph.D. in Religion at Columbia University where he studied under Dr. Robert A. F.

Andrew Nicholls, il miglior fabbro of the precisely calibrated gag, lets loose with a rollicking tale in verse as astonishing in its foolhardiness as the film shoot it chronicles. Reading As Man Is To God is like watching a master jeweler carve Mount Rushmore. We stare wide-eyed as the maniacal miniaturist brings off his magnum opus, one deft, hilarious touch at a time. The result is every bit as thrilling and endlessly revisitable as Herzog’s Fitzcarraldo , a rousing tribute to the folly and genius of our species. - Boris Dralyuk, Poet, Translator Information Source: Peggy Dobreer | eventbrite

Don't Miss LA's most anticipated immersive experience… VICTORIAN HORROR STORIES IN THE DARK Immerse yourself in the haunting world of Victorian legend, history, and folklore as you venture through four historic Victorian mansions, and the haunted grounds that surround them. You'll Meet The Inhabitants That Never Left... Experience the long-buried tales of Victorian terror that have chilled souls for over a century as you walk along a fog-shrouded trail through haunted mansions and abandoned homes and into a world where the veil between life and death is perilously thin in this immersive encounter with Victorian terror. Witness the macabre history that lies within the walls and beneath your feet. Ghosts of the past linger in every shadow and whisper through every corridor. Don't miss your chance to experience this once-in-a-lifetime event. A truly unforgettable evening where the stories come to life around you and haunt your dreams forever. Experience Victorian Horror Like Never Before at Victorian Horror Stories in the Dark! THIS IS JUST SOME OF WHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE: Dr. Blackwood's Spring-Heeled Beast Step into Dr. Blackwood's gaslit parlor and witness a scholar's descent into obsession as he reveals his bone-chilling encounter with Spring-Heeled Jack, the metallic-toothed terror of Victorian Los Angeles whose supernatural abilities and grotesque form have become the fuel for nightmares. The Vampyres of Bannerworth Manor Become entangled in the forbidden love triangle at Bannerworth Manor, where William desperately clutches a blessed wooden stake while Clara, bearing the marks of immortal passion, stands torn between mortal devotion and Viktor's seductive promise of eternity—a vampire who knows that forever is not romance but a prison of endless night, in a haunting encounter that will force you to question which existence truly constitutes damnation. The Widow of Thornfield Lane Follow Constable Crawford into the decaying halls of Thornfield Manor, where reclusive Eleanor Sheffield's thirty-year vigil conceals shocking truths about dancing lights in empty windows and children's laughter where none should exist—a rare encounter that traps you between two worlds as vengeful spirits, denied justice in life, refuse to rest until you bear witness to their long-silenced story. The Curse of The Forsyth Mummy Step warily into the grand Forsythe Estate where auctioneer Phineas Clark guides you through rooms of cursed treasures—from Amazonian shrunken heads to Tibetan artifacts—his scholarly detachment barely masking his growing unease as you encounter firsthand why some exotic collections were never meant to be disturbed, a spine-chilling revelation that forces you to question what ancient vengeance awaits those who ignore the warnings of distant tombs. The Victorian Trail of Terror Your spectral guide Victoria will take you through fog-shrouded paths as she reveals LA's most chilling spectral residents—from the whispered railroad disaster of 1883 to Victorian tragedies seeping from the Arroyo Seco soil—in a spine-chilling nocturnal expedition through moonlit gardens and shadowy church grounds that forces you to confront what lurks in history's darkest corners and why some melodies should never be answered. The Witch's Circle Step into the misty darkness where Undertaker Salem beckons you into a forgotten realm of Victorian supernatural mysteries, as thirteen torches cast eerie shadows across ancient symbols while he reveals long-buried secrets and demonstrates arcane practices dismissed by rational minds for centuries. While the circle is a sanctuary, once you leave it, we make no promises. PLUS: The Victorian Spirit Bar & Delicious Tacos Indulge in a selection of beer, wine, and signature drinks alongside delicious tacos from our taco bar and snacks thoughtfully curated to complement your supernatural journey—offering momentary comfort as you navigate the unsettling Victorian darkness. This event will sell out, so get your tickets now! The entire experience including all of the houses, the Victorian Trail of Terror and the Witch's Circle usually takes about 60-90 minutes, but you are welcome to stay at our Victorian Spirit Bar and enjoy tacos & drinks until we close the gates.
