"started in February 1999, Tuesday Nights is produced by Katalyst Productions in partnership with the Union Center Cafe to bring people to Little Tokyo and provide a venue for Asian & Pacific Islanders and local L.A. artists. The series has created a Tuesday Night "nightlife" in J-Town -- a gathering of residents from the neighboring San Pedro Firm Building, those just getting off work in the area, and community folks from all over looking for a space open to positive expression through poetry, music, spoken word, hip hop, visual art, theatre, performance art, and more."

Now, Tuesday Nights and Blacklava are working together to bring you the cafe experience via the internet. So sit back and relax with your homemade coffee and see what people in the J-town area have to offer.
