18th Street Arts Center is closed due to fire

For those of you living at 18th Street, or in the area – please stay up to date on the nearby evacuation zone.  The fire is moving westward – not in the direction of 18th Street – but air quality is very poor here.

You can find the live map, and the most current updates, and list of evacuation centers here: https://www.lafd.org/news/getty-fire
