Whitewashed Santora

The extent to which the owner of the Santora Arts building, Jack Jakosky, has acted to squelch any creativity or fun at what used to the heart of the Downtown Santa Ana Artists Village cannot be understated.  But now we can get a glimpse of Jakosky’s banality with a series of emails that were exchanged between a fellow who has staged musical acts and entertainment at the Santora for years, and Jakosky:

Two months ago I stated in an email that your last art walk music coordination would be the Feb art walk. For whatever reason you failed to realize this(OR CONVENIENTLY OVERLOOKED IT) and organized music for the March art walk. THERE WILL NOT BE ANY FURTHER ART WALK MUSICAL ACTIVITY IN SANTORA UNLESS I ORGANIZE IT. PLEASE CANCEL ALL GROUPS YOU HAD ORGANIZED FOR TOMORROW NIGHT. You have no further permission to organize these activities in the Santora Building.

I’m sorry Jack but to cancel 3 punk bands and 3 death metal bands and  their followers at the last minute means that I will be impaled through rectum. I thought you were aware of the annual resurrection music  fest we have in the basement of the santora building, I will just have to leave it to you to inform them the way you feel when they show up the event the coordinator is the tall guy with the green mowhawk   I’m sorry for the inconvenience.

You organized it, you cancel it. I really don’t care about the impact on you. You have no authorization to hold this event or any other event in Santora at any time.

Jack I don’t think  they know what  trespassing is, or care. It is very obvious that you don’t care about the impact you have on other people’s lives, so I figured that you would not have a problem letting them know how you feeling, good luck with the art, walk break leg

Happy belated April fools my friend, I wish you the best with your vision on the Santora building of the Arts.

So what happened in the end?  The musical acts were never booked.  Reportedly members of the Santa Ana Police Department were at the Santora, eagerly awaiting a chance to arrest a few punk rockers.

The Santora is dead.  It won’t be long before Jakosky is having whales and dolphins painted onto its now barren, white walls.

  1. Is Jakosky for real? He’s probably going to expect Santa Ana to pay him to put functions in the building if he keeps up this strict code…

  2. My poor left-liberal-progresive-artists, now you know why the hate is good and the tolerance sucks. One day you will learn, like Adolf Hitler did when he was an artist writer, painter and the architect, not to tolerate destructive race.

    Noah was lucky when the god help him to escape from the first Holocaust by the water not the gas.

  3. HAA HAAA Haa. So is this why Commander Gominsky was out Artwalking that night, scratching his head and asking me what happened to Memphis Restaurant.?

    1. Yes!

      It is gentrification Jewish stile you stupid left liberal socialists.

      Teo, enjoy your tolerance and inclusion and include Jacoff into your socialistic camp.

  4. what does religion culture or politics have any phucking thing to do with thys? G-bus Phucking Kryst…!
