Commercial Brokers International (CBI) held its exclusive “Art in the Garden” client appreciation event on Saturday, September 27th, in the tranquil garden courtyard of the iconic Landmark Building in Brentwood, Los Angeles. Designed as a celebration of trust, partnership, and community, the event brought together clients, colleagues, and friends to thank them for their continued support of CBI’s mission in commercial real estate.

Gabel highlighted his independent publishing projects, offering a unique perspective on storytelling and print culture, while Kevin Cho added a coastal touch with his distinctive surfboard paintings, transforming functional boards into stunning works of art.
