About

CurationsLA is a Los Angeles-based media and discovery company built on a simple premise: LA deserves good news. What began as a good vibes newsletter delivering hand-curated events, restaurant openings, neighborhood happenings and cultural moments to Angelenos has grown into a full interactive discovery platform for the city.

THE RAVEN PLATFORM

Raven is CurationsLA's interactive discovery experience — a redesigned, editorially-driven interface that turns the newsletter's curation into something you can explore. Built around a clean, high-contrast, print-inspired design language, Raven covers the full map of Los Angeles life: events, restaurants, businesses, neighborhoods, venues and stays.

Every surface is connected. Find an event, and Raven surfaces the nearby eats, the neighborhood context, the venue history and what else is happening that night within walking distance. Discovery is no longer a search box — it's a path through the city.

INTERACTIVE FEATURES

Event Discovery: Search and filter thousands of Los Angeles events by date, neighborhood, venue, category and vibe. Find a specific show, or browse open-ended by what's near you.

Trending in LA: A live view of what Angelenos are actually paying attention to right now — the events gaining momentum across the city, surfaced in real time rather than sorted by who paid the most.

Nearby Eats: Every event connects to the restaurants, bars and coffee shops around it. Plan the whole night — dinner before, drinks after — without leaving the page.

Futures Calendar: A forward-looking view of the Los Angeles calendar, so you can plan weeks and months out, not just tonight.

Neighborhood Guides: Deep, editorially-written coverage of LA's neighborhoods — what's there, what's new, what's worth the drive.

CURATOR GUIDES

Curator Guides are CurationsLA's answer to algorithmic sameness: human-authored, thematically-organized collections built by people who actually know the city. Rather than a ranked list generated by engagement metrics, a Curator Guide is a point of view — a curated path through a neighborhood, a scene, a weekend or a mood, assembled by a curator and published with attribution.

Guides connect events, restaurants, venues and neighborhoods into a single narrative, and are continuously updated as the city changes.

FOR BUSINESSES AND VENUES

CurationsLA offers Los Angeles restaurants, venues, event organizers and independent businesses a direct path to an engaged local audience. Business profiles, event submissions and brand partnerships are available through the CurationsLA brand portal.

EDITORIAL PHILOSOPHY

CurationsLA is built on good vibes journalism — coverage that highlights what is opening, launching, playing, cooking and happening in Los Angeles rather than what is failing. Curation is human-led and editorially independent, with technology used to surface and connect, never to replace judgment.

CurationsLA is a Curations Group property.
