To-Go Zine is a LA-focused food zine and fundrasier published by some of the creators (and now LA transplants) previously behind Lunchbox Moments Zine.
Just over one year ago, a city normally filled with winding drive-thru lines and fruteros honing their knives under multicolor umbrellas was smothered by wildfire smoke. Militaristic sweeps have followed apocalyptic burning skies, yet Angelenos have anchored themselves.
With our first issue, Care Package, we ask: what roots Angelenos in LA? In a city characterized by grueling commutes and endless sprawl, how do people collectively cultivate their sense of home? When LA offers some of its finest meals on city sidewalks and in strip mall parking lots, how can these seemingly fleeting transactions build community?
A core part of our mission is addressing the forces pushing people out of LA. We are supporting The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) through our platform and direct financial giving. Profits from sales of the magazine through May 31 will be donated to support immigrant rights. Our previous publication centered Asian American food narratives and raised over $6,000 for the Chinatown Community Development Center.
