Also this weekend, Machine Project’s annual FRY-B-Q is upon us! Gather the stash of fryable foods you’ve been collecting and come to Machine this Sunday, December 14th starting at 8pm for our All-You-Can-Fry holiday party. This year there’s a new twist — Pie-B-Q! Head to Machine for the fried food extravaganza and live music, and join us next door at the Echo Park Film Center for screenings of new videos from the Machine Project Field Guide to LACMA, rare Machine home videos, and pies. Pies! Admission to the event is free, pay $5 for all you can fry privileges, and $5 for all you can pie privileges.
