Recommendations for Short Creative Workshops in Los Angeles?

I'm planning an extended weekend trip and hoping to combine it with a business-oriented event or workshop to save some PTO. Does anyone know of any video editing, motion design, or graphic design workshops happening locally? I'm thinking very broadly, typography, compositing, 3D, or even project management. Anything in the creative or production space would be ideal.
I'm specifically looking for something short-term, happening between now and March. I know finding a short, 3-day course might be tricky, but I'd love any leads. Specifically, I'm interested in programs hosted by museums, design schools, or creative organizations. I've had trouble finding anything through my own research, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help
Check out the Brewery Art Walk. Lots of smaller studios open their doors, often with workshops. Also, keep an eye on event listings for local colleges, they frequently have short, public workshops.
How can I find mobile hot dog vendors for a private event?
honestly the SGV has a ton of licensed cart operators who mostly do private stuff now. look up "hot dog cart catering San Gabriel Valley" on Yelp and you'll get a handful that are fully permitted, which matters if your venue needs a health permit on file. expect around $400 to $700 for a few hours plus a per person minimum, usually 50 or so. the ones based in Alhambra and Rosemead tend to be cheaper than Pasadena because they're not paying that rent.
fwiw the county health dept keeps a public list of permitted mobile food operators, its searchable by city on the LA County Public Health site. filter for "pushcart" or "MFF" and you'll get vendors cleared for SGV zip codes, which saves you the headache of a venue asking for paperwork later. also worth checking with the Old Town Monrovia or Alhambra farmers market folks, the carts there are usually booked solid but they know who's free and they'll pass along names. just dont wait till the last week, good ones book out 2 to 3 weeks in teh summer.
You could try hitting up the folks who set up outside Home Depot or the DMV in El Monte on weekends, a lot of those carts are owner operated and they'll do private gigs if you ask. Just walk up and grab a card, they usually have one taped to the cart.
