To celebrate the launch of this new line, Quiksilver created SiteLA, a creative space nestled in the Silverlake neighborhood of Los Angeles.

•Sara Anderson – Artist, performer and connector who inspires art for people of all ages, genders and economic backgrounds through collaborative drawing, video, dance and sound.
•Dorothy Lee – Bicycling activist and safety advocate empowering women to safely cycle around Los Angeles.

•Khrystyne Zurian – Automotive designer creating the interior and exterior of a concept vehicle that reflects the active, healthy and eco-friendly experience of independent and creative young women.
SiteLA thus functions as a venue for creative programming and special events stemming from the residents’ personal projects. Through exhibitions, performances and educational forums, the "Visionaries in Residence" showcase their ongoing activity as artists, activists, entrepreneurs and designers.
