Special offer for newsletter subscribers: two-for-one tickets on our last tour of 2024
Gentle reader,
We are so grateful to everyone who gets this streaming webinar channel newsletter, but especially to our paid subscribers. Their generous support ($50/month or $100/year) makes it possible for us to advocate to save Norms Coffee Shop and other special places at immediate risk of being lost. We couldn’t do it without them!
Maybe you’ve been thinking of subscribing, and need a little nudge. How about a special two-for-one walking tour ticket offer?
Should you be in Los Angeles for the holidays and feel like exploring some dark corners of Downtown Los Angeles, we hope you’ll be our guest on a rare weekday walking tour on Thursday, December 26 starting at 10:30, Human Sacrifice: The Black Dahlia, Elisa Lam & Skid Row Slasher Cases.
Special offer for our paid subscribers (to this video channel, or our main preservation newsletter) and their guests: for every $50 ticket you buy, you can bring a friend for free. Brand new subscribers are welcome. Join us, do!
Yours for Los Angeles,
Kim & Richard
Esotouric
Are you on social media? We’re on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Mastodon, Threads, Bluesky, Substack Notes, TikTok and Reddit sharing preservation news as it happens.
Our work—leading tours and historic preservation and cultural landmark advocacy—is about building a bridge between Los Angeles' past and its future, and not allowing the corrupt, greedy, inept and misguided players who hold present power to destroy the city's soul and body. If you’d like to support our efforts to be the voice of places worth preserving, we have a tip jar and a subscriber edition of our main newsletter, in-person tours and a souvenir shop you can browse in. We’ve also got recommended reading bookshelves on Amazon and the Bookshop indie bookstore site. And did you know we offer private versions of our walking tours for groups big or small? Or just share this link with other people who care.
