FEATURED ARTIST SPEAKER
Fish Eggs and Special stuff from Siggraph
Chris Roe:
FISH EGGS founder Chris Roe has a unique blend of experience as both an
award-winning graphic designer and filmmaker. After working with pioneering
digital content companies GRAVY and TROON, Chris made the highly-acclaimed
feature documentary "Pop & ME."
After amassing numerous freelance and individual projects for most of the
major networks and studios, Chris established FISH EGGS as a creative outlet
to apply his experience to high-end motion graphic design. By broadening
the role of designer to visual storyteller, Chris is uniquely positioned to
help clients realize their most ambitious ideas.

We'll have more information on the rest of the line up as soon as we can tell you specifics.
Stay tuned!

Enter through the gate on the South side of Hollywood Blvd. just East of the light at Edgemont, or West of the light at New Hampshire (which is just West of where Prospect and Hollywood come together). The theatre is at the top of the hill, adjacent to the art gallery (they have separate entrances).
Parking is free. There is parking at the bottom of the hill, but first try to find a space around the perimeter of the park at the top. Please park closely together, at an angle (regardless of how the parking spaces are painted!) to allow more cars to park. Click here for a PDF map (300k) of the grounds that points out the parking areas and includes other helpful hints.
Wheelchair access (or if you are carrying a lot of gear): Park in the lot next to the Hollyhock house (you will see a handicap parking sign - there are also spaces for loading etc.), come into the theatre entrance, and take the elevator down. There will be space in the front of the theatre for wheelchairs.
Click here for a Google interactive map, including the ability to get directions from your location to this address. There is also a Metro Red Line station at Vermont and Sunset, about a block and a half from the park's entrance.
Before or after the meeting, there is a fine restaurant row on Vermont between Hollywood and Franklin (just around the corner from the park). There are also a number of great ethic eateries along Hollywood.
