The Loft at Liz’s art gallery in Los Angeles features both emerging and established artists and artisans, fostering an open dialogue between eclectic and diverse points of view, ideologies and experiences. Works of all mediums are featured. Our visual arts programming may also be accompanied by performances, music, dance or culinary arts.
Located in the historic Miracle Mile district of Los Angeles, the hardware store was born in 1979 when Liz happened upon a 4000 square foot warehouse in Chicago filled to the brim with objects culled by a local picker from garage sales, abandoned buildings, and flea markets. Liz purchased the contents, and with her keen eye set to work organizing the haphazard menagerie into a successful wholesale hardware department store. In 1992 the business relocated to Los Angeles, where Liz’s Antique Hardware remains a staple for the Southern California antique and interior design community.
Like an artist in residence, Liz lived above her store for 12 years. In 2004, she bought a home, and the loft evolved into its current incarnation as a creative hotspot. The New York style loft space features artists from around the world and embraces works of all mediums. Combining incredible art and live events, the Loft is one of L.A.’s best secrets attracting visitors from across the globe. Like Liz’s Hardware, the Loft will always be a treasure trove – a place to find exquisite works of art, vintage curiosities and design objects.
