Dear Echo Park,
This is a love letter to those who once knew Sunset and Echo Park as Pioneer Market.
When and dreamt up a passion project to honor our deeply rooted cultures, lived stories, and shared legacies, .a_eyes had to be the one to tell the story, all of our stories.
Together as a community, amplifying both family owned small businesses was beyond just us. it’s a celebration of our people, our food, our neighborhood, our city.
Echo Park might be a trendy hotspot, but it was once (and still is) a place of diversity, cultures, and small businesses who carry the essence of differences, resilience, and perseverance.
And if you know Sunset and Echo Park as Walgreens, this one is also for you because legacies are built through our past, present, and future. Those before us were the foundation of our roots while we carry on our stories for the ones after us to continue. This one’s for you, Echo Park.
As an homage to our community, we will be releasing limited edition shirts to honor our shared history ($30.00 from sizes S – 2XL) and the CA Rodeo Burrito available at Combo A this Friday 5/22 only ($15.00 from 4pm until supplies last).
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to local organizations whose values align with preserving our neighborhoods.
Thank you to our team, all born and raised on these same blocks, your shared craft in authentic storytelling has captured the heart of Echo Park that can only be felt:
