The inaugural Zeitgeist Media Festival (ZMF), uniting the world through socially conscious art, happens in Los Angeles on Sunday, September 11, 2011 at The Music Box in Hollywood ... and around the world on the same weekend! The not-for-profit festival features music, visual and interactive art, poetry, comedy, and theatrics including a concert featuring forward-thinking artistic powerhouses such as famed guitar legend Billy Gibbons, world musician Natacha Atlas, violin virtuoso Lili Haydn, Ben Stewart's Hierosonic, and the social comedy of Rick Overton (MC) and Lee Camp. The Zeitgeist Media Festival runs from 2:00pm to 10:00pm and is an all ages event. In addition to $40.00 per ticket, attendees must also contribute a small canned/sealed food donation to gain entrance.

ZMF is a global, multimedia event working to utilize the Arts as an avenue to create sustainable values in the pursuit of a better world. The event features a special 3,000 square foot rooftop garden, which will house fine art, video, and more music with the help of LA's Dream Circus Theatre. ZMF will also host a regional food drive, in partnership with the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, to provide relief to the growing number of people struggling with poverty in LA County. Several nonprofits will also be on hand at the Los Angeles event with information booths on-site.

From Canada to London to Israel, ZMF expects over 70 parallel events. In addition to socially conscious art, the global event encourages participants in other regions to also conduct similar, local, resource-based drives for those in need in their respective regions. The global events are being updated on the ZMF website as they are finalized.

This is a Non-Profit/At Cost Event, where the ticket price reflects the expenditure of the event itself.
