About us
The focus of ‘Ladies Who Adore Vintage LA’ is to explore the most iconic landmarks and interesting “vintage” venues in greater LA— offering both education as well as socialization. A great opportunity to make like-minded friends who have a true love and appreciation for all things “vintage”.
Venues are thoroughly researched and fully described with historical facts. Vintage photos when available are always included. My goal is to share knowledge on these iconic places. Knowing before going enhances your Meetup Experience.
If you adore vintage you will thoroughly enjoy all the ‘vintage’ events this Meetup group offers! Ladies Who Adore Vintage is best described as a unique “specialty” Meetup Group.
