Venice Paparazzi was stoked to host a photo booth for City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks’ 2024 RSB Recess Celebration at the COSM Los Angeles.

All the friendly faces from across LA City Parks were there, enjoying food, the Venice Paparazzi Photo Booth, and the mind blowing show put on by the COSM Los Angeles’ new, next level, shared reality immersive experience.  Check out event coverage and fun pics from the photo booth.  The people in this gallery are all the amazing staff who organize, plan, and implement recreational programs throughout LA City.
