The Stouts N’ Staches festival brought out dancers, families, music lovers, foodies and, most important, the awareness for men’s health at its sixth edition, which took place over the weekend at Clutch in Venice.

The whole-pig roast was provided by Oscar Hermosillo, owner of Clutch and Venice Beach Wines. Gastro Garage brought the torched topped savory and sweet doughnuts and Jack of Hearts brought the music.

Guests enjoyed beers from locals Iron Triangle (DLTA), Venice Duck Brewery (Venice) and Calidad Beer (Santa Barbara), as well as leather treatments, beard trimmings, kefir tastings, cigar purchases and marijuana education from MedMen complete with PopSockets and Polaroids.

The goal of the festival was to raise awareness for the Movember Foundation, which supports men’s physical and mental health in the L.A. community.
