Friday
12 Shiny Nickles – Got $5 and a bottle of two buck Chuck? Then you should check out the 12 Shiny Nickels show in West Hollywood. Starting at 11pm for $5 you get in to see twelve comics from around the country do 5 minutes of their best stand-up. This is perfect for any of you out there with entertainment ADD. What makes this even better is the fact that the venue has no required drink minimum and is BYOB for food and booze, so mix a drink in your thermos, grab some pop-tarts, and prepare yourself for a good night!
Cost: $5

Saturday
ActorFest – This is a free event from 9am-6pm in Downtown where actors can talk to industry professionals, get advice, and anything else they need to jumpstart or boost their career and there will also be free stuff so you can’t go wrong. It’s totally free but you do have to register.

House Party Swap and Shop – This is a big Sunday for all you shoppers out there. First we have the House Party Swap and Shop. In addition to the swap itself, there will be a guest lounge, door prize raffle, and vendors offering handmade items.
