Every first Thursday of the month, Downtown LA (DTLA) ArtNight transforms the historic heart of Los Angeles into a vibrant celebration of creativity. The support over 30 participating galleries, live performances, vendors, and surprise activations spread throughout the downtown core.

But with so much happening across such a wide area, helping attendees discover what’s going on (and where) is no small feat.

That’s where Proxi comes in.

A Map as Dynamic as the Event Itself

To make navigating the night easier than ever, DTLA ArtNight embedded a Proxi interactive map directly onto their website. It acts as a real-time guide for attendees, offering a clear, intuitive way to explore everything happening across the event.

With just a few taps, attendees can:

📍 Find participating galleries
🛍️ Discover vendor markets

🖼️ View featured exhibitions and artists

And with custom tags, it’s easy to filter the map based on the vibe you're looking for:
