Sika, an institution of Leimert Park Village, has been specializing in custom jewelry, African art, clothing, and other goods for 30 years. Sika Dwimfo, the store’s owner, weathered a downturn in the economy in the 2000s. His resilience has commanded the love and respect of the community and, today, despite concerns about gentrification, Sika remains at the heart of the neighborhood as a cultural gathering place.
