X Ten Biennial Live -- Ten Thinkers Pick Ten Faves

Fresh off an October inaugural live event that paired a standing-room only crowd with ten fantastic participants, X Ten Biennial returns Saturday, December 3, 2011 from 3-5pm with a brand new compelling line-up.

The event will take place in the Atwater Crossing ("ATX") complex, 3245-3191 Casitas Avenue, LA, CA 90039, in Los Angeles' Atwater Village neighborhood.  

A cross of sorts between a Desert Island Discs list and a PechaKucha, X Ten Biennial is a live happening where ten creative visionaries will each have ten minutes to present their lists of their top ten favorite artists of all time -- and explain why.
