SUMMARY:Universal CityWalk Hollywood
DESCRIPTION:UNIVERSAL CITY WALK- Hollywood\nUniversal CityWalk was introduced in 1993\, as the prototypical one-stop leisure destination that redefined the malls of yesteryear as a vibrant multi-sensory outdoor complex.

SUMMARY:Dockweiler Beach Fire Pits
DESCRIPTION:EVERY DAY ’til MIDNIGHT- Dockweiler State Beach\nThe Dockweiler Beach Fire Pits are located about 3 miles south of Playa del Rey\, this inviting beach features 3 miles of shoreline\, an RV park\, and over 2\,000 regular vehicle parking spaces. The wide sandy beach lies beneath the departures flight path of LAX\, offering fantastic belly views of airlines headed out over the Pacific. The lot entrance is at Vista del Mar and Imperial Highway. \n\n\nFIRE PITS RULES\n\n\n\n\n\nAny grills or BBQs must fit inside the fire pit\, which is 2′ wide. No grills\, grilling\, or flames or fires on the sand.\nTo use the fire pits\, you bring your own charcoal or wood and a way to light them.\nPlease do not use sand to put out the fire.\nHelp keep our beaches clean by preventing ashes or debris from falling into the sand.\n\n  \n\n\n\nThere’s no better way to end a fun day at the beach than to circle up around a cozy bonfire. Not all California beaches allow bonfires\, but here in the Marina del Rey area\, we’re lucky that Dockweiler State Beach does permit regulated burns in provided fire rings. Follow these tips to ensure your group has an enjoyable time. \n\nIf you want a pit\, arrive early. From May through September\, the pits are in high demand\, especially on the weekends\, and there are some diehards who arrive at dawn to claim their spots for the entire day. You cannot reserve fire pits as you would a campsite. Do not leave your pit unattended\, even for a quick dip in the ocean – if you do\, don’t be surprised to find another group has taken over the site. There are between 60 – 80 fire pits located just north and south of where Vista del Mar intersects with Imperial Highway. That sounds like a lot\, but consider that Dockweiler is also home to an RV park\, and you’re all competing for space.\nBring everything you need – wood\, s’mores\, snacks\, et cetera (see “Your Packing List” below).\nThe beach and all amenities close at midnight.\nBefore you leave\, snuff out the flame with water. Stir the embers after they are covered with water and make sure that everything is saturated. Do not use sand to distinguish the fire\, as it creates a mess for the next guest.\n\n \nYOUR PACKING LIST\n\nWood and charcoal (wood for that nice bonfire and charcoal for cooking – see below about barbecue rules). Both can be purchased at Ralph’s grocery stores: 4700 Admiralty Way\, Marina del Rey; 8701 Lincoln Boulevard\, Playa del Rey. Only burn clean wood (nothing treated with paint\, chemicals\, etc.) in the pits.\nFire starter and a lighter. You can purchase kindling from most any grocery\, home supply\, or sporting-goods store. Or\, prepare your own starter with this old-school camping craft: Fill a cardboard egg carton with dryer lint\, wood shavings\, paper shreds\, or other ignitable materials. Pour a small amount of melted candle wax into each cup to make things stay put. Break off cups individually and place into your wood stack. Light the cardboard cups and watch how easy your fire takes off – even in the wind.\nIf barbecuing\, note that large stand-up barbeques are NOT allowed on the sand or in the parking lots. However\, you can bring a low-profile version and place it inside the fire ring.\nLong-handle grilling sticks. These are great for cooking hot dogs and kabobs and roasting marshmallows.\nHot glove or mitt. Don’t ruin your night with a burn from handling hot wood\, pots\, or grills. Items like the Ove Glove offer protection while still allowing dexterity.\nFood! Doubt you’ll forget this\, but you may want a separate checklist so that you remember all the elements for your meal. It’s easy to overlook things like serving spoons\, plastic utensils\, salt and pepper\, napkins or wet wipes\, and containers for leftovers. Paper plates are great for cookouts since they’re ok to burn in the fire afterward.\nCamp/beach table. Depending on the size of your group\, you may prefer to set up your dinner fixings buffet style on a simple folding table. Whatever you bring\, remember that you’ll need to carry it across the sand to the pit and back to the parking lot at the end of your evening. So only take what you really need.\nYou’ll want a beverage cooler with ice\, especially if you heed our warning and arrive early in the day to claim your spot. A bag to hold discarded recyclables is a good idea\, too.\nComfort items. Ask each person in your group to bring his or her own beach chair or picnic blanket. Remind them that despite warm daytime temps\, the beach cools down a lot at night; having extra blankets and jackets is a smart move.\n\n  \n  \n  \nClick here to read beach rules and regulations at LA County Beaches including Dockweiler State Beach. \n  \nDOCKWEILER STATE BEACH PARKING INFORMATION\nParking at Dockweiler State Beach costs between $6 (weekday\, low season) and $13 (weekend\, high season) and there are no in/outs. If you leave the lot\, you must pay again to enter. The first 300 cars to arrive during weekdays pay a reduced rate of $3; during weekends and L.A. County holidays\, the reduced rate for the first 300 cars is $5. There is limited street parking on Vista del Mar\, but take note of the parking signage. Click for an interactive parking map with fees and times. \n  \nHours\nMonday – Sunday: 6:00 a.m.- 12:00 Midnight \n\nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nvisitmarinadelrey.com/dockweiler-state-beach\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

Since its inception\, the Museum has been housed in the historic 1911 Elizabeth Milbank Anderson House. In 1957\, the Anderson House was designated as the Long Beach Museum of Art\, at which time the Museum began acquiring a permanent collection.\nIn 1977\, the Museum was honored with accreditation by the American Association of Museums\, which it has since maintained. Since 1986\, the Long Beach Museum of Art Foundation has managed the Museum\, governed by a Board of Trustees. In 2000\, the Museum completed a restoration of the historic residence and constructed a new two-story exhibition pavilion (in 2015 the pavilion was renamed the Hartman Pavilion).

SUMMARY:DIWALI: Festival of Lights
DESCRIPTION:TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF DAWALI\n \nWhat is Diwali?\nDiwali\, or Dipawali\, is India’s biggest and most important holiday of the year. The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa) that Indians light outside their homes to symbolize the inner light that protects from spiritual darkness. This festival is as important to Hindus as the Christmas holiday is to Christians. \nOver the centuries\, Diwali has become a national festival that’s also enjoyed by non-Hindu communities. For instance\, in Jainism\, Diwali marks the nirvana\, or spiritual awakening\, of Lord Mahavira on October 15\, 527 B.C.; in Sikhism\, it honors the day that Guru Hargobind Ji\, the Sixth Sikh Guru\, was freed from imprisonment. Buddhists in India celebrate Diwali as well. \n  \n \n  \nWhen is Diwali 2021?\nDiwali is a five-day religious festival. The main festival day falls on a different date each autumn\, timed the Hindu lunar calendar\, but it usually falls in October or November. In 2021\, Diwali falls on Thursday\, Nov. 4. \nHow is Diwali celebrated?\nThe Diwali festival takes place over five days. \nThe First Day\, \nDhanteras\, is for celebrating Lakshmi\, the Hindu goddess of wealth\, prosperity\, youth and beauty. On this first day\, people buy new items such as jewelry\, clothing and utensils and light lamps to welcome Lakshm. \nThe Second Day\, \nknown as Chhoti Diwali\, Naraka Chaturdasior Kali Chaudas\, focuses on a story from Hindu mythology about the god Krishna and his defeat of the demon god Narakasura. On this day\, some people put up twinkling lights to celebrate his victory. \nThe Third Day\,\nknown as Diwali\, Deepawali\, or Lakshmi Puja\, is the most important day of the Diwali festival. On this day\, people visit family and friends to feast and exchange sweets and gifts. People also continue to light lamps and candles to welcome light and prosperity from the goddess Lakshmi. \nThe Fourth Day\,\nknown as Govardhan Puja or Padva\, some people in northern India build small piles of cow dung as a symbol of how Krishna defeated the king of the Hindu gods\, Indra\, by lifting up a mountain. \nThe First Day\,\nknown as Bhai Dooj or Yama Dwitiva\, is a day for brothers and sisters to honor one another. Siblings perform a ceremony called tilak and pray for one another. \nOn this final day of Diwali\, many people also set off fireworks. In 2017\, India’s supreme court banned the sale of fireworks for Diwali in the capital\, Delhi\, citing concerns about pollution and air quality. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho celebrates Diwali?\nDiwali is celebrated by people across different faiths in India\, including Hindus\, Jains\, Sikhs\, and some Muslims and Buddhists. Many people with South Asian heritage in other parts of the world also celebrate Diwali. \nWhile Diwali is a religious festival\, it has also become a secular national holiday celebrated widely across India\, much like Christmas has become a holiday celebrated by Christians and non-Christians alike in the U.S. \n  \n \nWhat do people eat during Diwali?\nDiwali is a time for feasting with family and enjoying plenty of sweet treats. One popular delicacy is kaju katli\, a fudge-like sweet made with ground cashews and sugar\, and sometimes flavored with a touch of rose water. Another popular treat in northern India is besan burfi\, another kind of fudge-like bar made from flour\, sugar and cardamom and sprinkled with almonds or pistachios. Jalebi\, a kind of sweet fried bread\, is also a popular choice. Basically\, it isn’t Diwali without dessert! \n\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

Watch and learn with videos and animations. Have fun with games and activities. \n  \n \nMiddle & School Versions Grow as they do\nMany online products offer multiple levels for different ages\, but often struggling readers are reluctant to move to a lower level because the interface and experience are designed for younger students. With Britannica School\, content is available at all three reading levels and students can move quickly from one level to another without changing the look and feel of the site. Content and Interface work together to give the user an experience tailored to their needs. For example\, if elementary students move to a level with more advanced content\, their interface becomes more advanced as well; but middle and high school students stay in their more advanced interfaces\, even if they choose level 1. \n  \n  \n \nFor Educators and Home School Teachers\n\n\nOur biggest users tell us that students\, teachers and librarians all want to go beyond looking up content. You want to filter\, tag favorites\, adjust reading levels\, share content\, and serendipitously discover new and related ideas. \nWith Britannica School\, educators can map text and multimedia to classroom activities on the fly and even toggle within an article to see the State and Common Core standards associated with it. Teachers can create\, save and share lesson plans using the new lesson plan builder. They can map Britannica content\, define steps and activities\, select materials and share their ideas with other teachers. They can also access and review plans created by other teachers. \n\n\n\nBritannica School’s ESL/ELL Support\n\n\nEnglish language learners may choose to have articles read aloud with each word highlighted as it is read to increase comprehension. \nOther tools are built in for support as well including the Quick Click dictionary that provides definitions and audio pronunciations right when the reader needs them without leaving the article. \nBritannica School also offers multiple translation tools with an emphasis on Spanish-English translation but with more than 50 world languages available. \n\n\nUse Anywhere\nBritannica School is accessible at school\, home or anywhere you have an internet connection.

SUMMARY:Odd Squad Coffee Cruise
DESCRIPTION:EVERY WEDNESDAY at Coffee Bean Culver City\nThe Odd Squad Coffee Cruise meets every Wednesday at the Coffee Bean in Culver City and EVERYONE IS WELCOME !\nStarted in 2012 by Blake Weddington\, The Odd Squad Car Club has always been more about the people and less about the cars.  The club has no dues\, no required attendance and no car criteria other than pre-smog American cars (preferably not muscle cars).  The cars in the club range from fresh paint jobs to rusty rat rods and most are used as daily drivers. \n\nThe Odd Squad Coffee Cruise happens every Wednesday\nand then cruises to a local food spot!  If you are interested in joining the club\, we ask that you come by on Wednesdays and get to know the guys.  Our club has no attitude\, no egos and everyone is treated with respect\, so the worst that will happen is you leave with some new friends. \n\n\n\nLos Angeles is famous worldwide\, for its long love affair with the automobile. Car culture has been part of the city’s DNA for generations. From classics to custom builds and hot rods\, the automobile has always been a Southern Californian symbol of unfettered freedom. Here\, the automobile was embraced by Angelenos young and old\, rich and poor\, honest and not quite so. From the beginning\, when LA’s Sepulveda\, Sunset\, and Olympic Boulevards were the primary arteries linking beaches\, the Valley\, and downtown\, the automobile was our way to stay connected. It was never merely a matter of arriving at Point B from Point A—one had to get there in style\, whether cruising the boulevard or driving a getaway car.\n\nKeep up to date with all things Odd Squad by following them on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/oddsquadcarclub/\n\n\nOdd Squad Coffee Cruise Meets at The Coffee Bean\nBorn and brewed in Southern California since 1963\, The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® has always been passionate about connecting loyal customers with carefully handcrafted products.\n\n\n\n\nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \ninstagram.com/oddsquadcarclub\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:COME LIGHT UP THE NIGHT
DESCRIPTION:EVERY WEDNESDAY NIGHT @ South Beach Park in Santa Monica.\nGlow Flow at Santa Monica’s South Beach\, is a night time event\, that turns the beach into a playground of light.  Local artists spin various lighted objects to create one of a kind moments of kinetic art. A fantastic group of artists & dancers who work with LED Hula Hoops and other LED apparatus they can spin\, toss\, throw in the air\, etc. \n\n Very friendly and talented peeps.  \n \nCelebrating our love of  the FLOW at Glow Flow Santa Monica!\n\n\n\n\nHow to Capture the Glow Flow Moment\nIf spin isn’t your thing\, how about photography. Here are different ways to shoot Glow Flow Santa Monica. \nGOLDEN HOUR / BLUE HOUR\nYou can shoot available light for images of the artists. \nSLOW SHUTTER SPEED\nAs Glow Flow gets dark\, you can use a slow shutter speed to let the moving LED devices draw amazing “spirograph” shapes with light against the night sky. \nSLOW SYNC\nYou can combine both elements with slow sync or rear sync. A long shutter speed captures traces from LED Hula Hoops and then your on-or-off-camera flash lights the artist. \nTHE BEST FLASH?\nI haven’t had the best results with built-in pop-up flash. I like using an external flash in the hot-shoe. At Glow Flow\, We often say that having flash off the hot-shoe produces better lighting. For me\, in this case\, I think there’s so much going on\, that hot-shoe mounted flash works well. You could bring a light stand and battery powered strobe which might look great but seems like a lot of gear. \nTRIPOD?\nIf you use flash\, it will freeze the artist\, and the point-light-sources of the LEDs effectively freeze themselves\, so you can shoot this handheld. However\, you will get crisper images if you use a tripod. \nBRACKET\, BRACKET\, BRACKET!\nAs you can imagine\, dialing in your exposure can be a bit complicated! Plan to try a variety of different shutter speeds to see what works with the LEDs. And different flash intensities to balance the illumination on the artist with the LED traces. \n\nSouth Beach Park\nis located at 110 Pier Ave\, on the border between Venice Beach and Santa Monica.  \n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nfacebook.com/veniceglowflow\n \n\n\n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n  \n

The star will be dedicated in the category of Recording in front of Ballet Hollywood at 6623 Hollywood Boulevard. \nJoining Emcee Lupita Sanchez-Cornejo\, Vice Chair of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce\, to unveil the star will be Henry Cardenas\, CEO of Cardenas Marketing Network. \nThe Hollywood Chamber of Commerce\, which administers the popular star ceremonies\, encourages people who are unable to attend and fans around the world to watch the event exclusively on www.walkoffame.com. \nAna Gabriel is an iconic Mexican singer and composer. She was born on December 10\, 1955 in the small town of Guamúchil\, Sinaloa\, Mexico. Even as a little girl\, her family always encouraged her singing and musical ability\, staging reenactments of a popular radio show where she would play the first three notes from a song and her family would guess what song it was. She felt a calling to be a singer from a very young age and first performed on stage at age six\, singing “Regalo de Dios” by José Alfredo Jiménez. \nWhile in Tijuana she studied accounting and she eventually became a Certified Accountant\, but she knew in her heart that music\, composing\, and singing with her unique voice was in her future. On December 15\, 1974 she recorded her first song. \nOver the course of her career\, Gabriel has released 28 studio albums\, three live albums\, and 19 compilation albums\, selling more than 40 million records worldwide. Three of her albums have reached number one on the Billboard Latin Pop Albums chart\, and seven singles reached number one on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart\, including “Ay Amor\,” “Es Demasiado Tarde\,” and “Quién Como Tú.” Her work earned her numerous awards and accolades\, including a Grammy Award nomination\, four Latin Grammy Award nominations\, thirteen Lo Nuestro Awards\, as well as awards from the American Society of Composers\, Authors and Publishers. In 2006\, she received the Excellence Award at the Lo Nuestro Awards. \nAna Gabriel performed at the OTI Festival in 1985\, 1986\, and 1987. In 1986 wrote and composed “A Tu Lado\,” which she then performed at the festival. She won third place in 1987 with an orchestral version of the pop-power ballad song “Búscame\,” composed in conjunction with Tony Flores. This version was later released as a single in its album version. It climbed to the top position in Mexico\, all-over Ibero-America\, and broke records on the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks chart for 14 consecutive weeks. \nIn 1988 Gabriel released Tierra de Nadie\, which was the best-selling album in Latin America\, followed by Pecado Original in 1989. The 1989 release of the album Quién Como Tú made her a musical force in Mexico. Her live album En Vivo showcased her powerful stage act and scored several hits including “En la Oscuridad” and “Destino\,” which she wrote to honor her grandparents Roberto and Florencia. \nThroughout the ‘90s Gabriel released an album almost every year. A versatile singer\, she showcased her talent as an interpreter of many different musical styles including mariachi\, ranchero\, romantic ballads\, and pop. She honed her skills as a songwriter and a producer\, releasing Mi México\, a ranchera-influenced\, mariachi-backed pop album in 1991\, which is the highest-selling album of her career. The album also included a tribute to Mexico’s most popular singer-songwriter\, Juan Gabriel and opened the doors to her career in Europe. Her second live album\, Ana Gabriel en la Plaza de Toros México\, recorded in 1998\, is the second-best-selling album of her career. It features 28 songs all written and performed by Gabriel and was re-released in 2007 with a DVD compilation\, which sold over 2 million copies. \nIn 2009\, after a short hiatus\, she reinvigorated her career with the release of Renacer: Homenaje a Lucha Villa. According to Rolling Stone Magazine in 2018 she stood “…as the highest-ranking female artist on Billboard’s male-dominated Greatest of All Time Hot Latin Songs Artists list\, opening the doors for future female pop titans like Shakira.” \nIn her self-produced 2016 documentary\, La Historia\, Gabriel tells a story of people who would incredulously ask her\, “You’re going to be a singer?” And she’d always reply “Yes. I am. And I’m going to be very famous.” She credits her parents’ encouragement and her resolute character for the success of her career. Her charisma\, passion\, love\, humility\, and her inner- and- outer beauty have secured her place as one of the best Mexican singers in the world. \nAs part of her ongoing passion for helping disadvantaged children\, Ana Gabriel is involved with the following charities: Moviemiento RAS\, Maestro Cares Foundation and St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. \n\n\nHours\nWednesday: 11:30am – 12:30pm \n\n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nhttps://walkoffame.com/press_releases/anagabriel/\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

SUMMARY:PINATAS: THE HIGH ART OF CELEBRATION
DESCRIPTION:EVERY TUESDAY – SUNDAY- 3rd Street\n\nPINATAS: THE HIGH ART OF CELEBRATION\n9/4/2021 – 12/4/2021\n\n\nThe Craft in America Center is pleased to present a dynamic in-person and virtual exhibition of about fifty works made by fifteen artists and artist collectives from across the U.S. and Mexico\, which focuses on the overlooked craft of handmade piñatas and piñata-based art objects. \n\nPiñatas: The High Art of Celebration at Craft in America\, Gallery Installation View. Photo: Madison Metro\, Craft in America.\nPiñatas: The High Art of Celebration at Craft in America\, Gallery Installation View. Photo: Madison Metro\, Craft in America.\n\nPiñatas\, ubiquitous and often the focal point of parties and festive occasions across the U.S.\, are handcrafted and ephemeral objects that signify happiness\, joy\, release\, and celebration. This exhibition touches on the role that they play in modern material culture and how they are made to embody social commentary\, along with the ways that artists address piñatas as conceptual and technical launching points for their vision. \nThe work of traditional piñata artisans is presented alongside the creations of artists who reinvent and reinterpret the piñata through engaging sculptural practices. The contemporary artists featured in this exhibition reconsider the techniques\, materials\, form\, function\, and notion of the piñata\, forming a new language for expression. \nPiñatas are a deeply rooted Mexican tradition that has become widespread and beloved across cultures. Piñatas are accessible by nature and made from relatively humble materials. They are shapeshifters that can be created to take any form\, be that of a creature\, shape\, figure\, or idea. Considering their popularity in our lives and how many memories are made around piñata play\, this contemporary form of cultural craft has been relatively unexamined. \nAs creators of material culture\, craft makers design and build the relics of our everyday\, modern world. This exhibition touches on the ephemeral and performative nature of certain forms of craft. Craft today plays a part in our traditions\, our celebrations\, our relationships\, and it deepens how we experience life\, even when it is destroyed or discarded after use. \nPiñatas are intertwined with childhood experiences\, gatherings of family and friends\, and celebratory turning points in life– all of which have become much more precious to us in this era of COVID. As markers of these events\, piñatas have new resonance and meaning today. They continue to be shaped to reflect changing times. This exhibition spotlights makers who creatively generate these objects in response to our shifting world. \n\n\nFor programming related to this exhibition see the links to the right (desktop)\, bottom (mobile)\, or click here for all upcoming events. \n\n\nFor inquiries or more information\, contact center@craftinamerica.org \n\n\n\n\nVirtual Gallery\nClick and drag\, or use your arrow keys\, to see a 360º view of the virtual space\, including tags with object information and images. \n\nPiñatas as Fantasy\n\nRoberto Benavidez\nBenavidez is a figurative sculptor originally from South Texas\, now based in Los Angeles. After studying bronze casting at Pasadena City College\, Benavidez later switched to paper because it was a more accessible medium. This material shift led him to focus on the piñata technique\, a familiar form from childhood. \nFor his landscape piñatas\, in this case one of the pristine beaches on Santa Rosa in the Channel Islands\, Benavidez uses the feathery qualities of his paper medium and crisp cuts to create reflectivity\, depth\, perspective\, and variations of color and light. \nBenavidez plays with underlying themes of ephemerality\, race\, and sin in his impeccably crafted works. \n\n\n\nRoberto Benavidez\, Javelina Girl (Illuminated Piñata No. 14). 2019. Photo: Courtesy of the artist.\n\n\nRoberto Benavidez\, Illuminated Piñata No. 1\, 2017.

He reframes present-day social struggles through the lens of art historical precedent. \nPalomares highlights the beauty of the mundane and ordinary by taking his subjects out of context\, making them worthy of a more thoughtful look. \nFrancisco Palomares\, Agarrate Papa\, 2020.

Her piñatas reflect her experiences growing up along the San Diego/Tijuana border\, her identity\, and culture. Her work is known for introducing materials not commonly found in traditional piñatas including media and technology. \n\n\n\nDiana Benavidez\, La Pinche Migra (from Vehículos Transfronterizos series)\, 2019.

In response to the 2016 election\, a wall built of hand-crafted piñatas in the form of cinder blocks was installed and ultimately\, at the close of the exhibition\, community members gathered to destroy the proxy wall as one would a piñata\, in an act of defiance against the proposed wall at the border of the US and Mexico. \nSita Kuratomi Bhaumik in collaboration with Cece Carpio\, La Pelanga\, Norma Listman\, People’s Kitchen Collective\, Piñatas Las Morenitas Martínez\, and Little Piñata Maker Estamos contra el muro | We are against the wall\, 2016.

Through the inclusion of cartoonish anthropomorphic elements\, each piñata house speaks to the fragility\, history\, and experiences of the marginalized community. \n\n\n\nGiovanni Valderas\, Installation Image of Casita Triste (Sad Little House)\, 2021.

After consulting for immigrant-owned businesses and serving as a social worker for immigrant families\, Robletto turned her focus towards the artistry of piñatas and set up a shop in the Los Angeles Piñata District. Her studio and storefront is now located in Mid City\, where her team creates custom piñatas of any scale along with ready-made piñatas and various signature designs. She frequently makes props and commissions for the entertainment industry and other branded events. \n\n\n\nLorena Robletto (Amazing Piñatas)\, Seven Point Star Installation\, 2021.

The border city of Rosarito\, Baja California\, is home to a community of up to 250 families who migrated north more than 1\,500 miles from their ancestral homeland located in the island of Janitzio\, Michoacan\, and adopted the making of piñatas as their craft and main source of living. \n\n\n\nDignicraft in collaboration with María Rosa Guzmán Soto\, Eduviges Solorio Morales\, José Raúl Guzmán Soto\, Nadia Iliana Guzmán Solorio\, Bryan Guzmán Solorio\, Evelyn Guzmán Solorio\, María Amparo Guzmán Soto\, Guadalupe Solorio Vargas\, José Vivaldo Jacobo Guzmán\, María De la Luz Solorio Morales\, Javier González Cortez\, Edith González Solorio\, Eréndira Pineda Campos and Leonel Solorio Morales Cheremati (fisherman on canoe) and Nanachi (woman) Installation\, 2015.

I made a piñata in the shape of a uterus\, filled it with glitter\, condoms\, lube and the tampons I would never need again and destroyed it with a baseball bat. \nSince then\, I wanted to share this awesome piñata with the world.

SUMMARY:HOKALI Beach Cleanup Day
DESCRIPTION:EVERY 2nd of the MONTH- Venice Beach \nBeach Cleanup by HOKALI Surf Lessons at Venice Beach 1800 Ocean Front Walk\, Venice\, CA \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCalling All Venice Beach Surf Community. All the HOKALI Community of surfers will be cleaning the beaches together\, on the second day of every month!! “What day is that man?”\, you may ask. Ahh\, that’s an easy one Dude! It’s the Second Day.  \nHOKALI is announcing guidelines for individuals to conduct solo beach clean ups as long as local governing bodies allow for public beach access. A solo cleanup is defined as an individual cleanup by one person or household unit\, not necessarily organized by the chapter\, but promoted as an activity for the public. \nThe following requirements are outlined to assist in evaluating your ability to conduct a solo beach cleanup. \n\nYour state and local governing agency allows access to the beach;\n\n\nActive use of the beach is allowed under applicable laws (e.g. walking included);\n\n\nAdditional restrictions on active beach use are followed\, e.g.\, open and closing times\n\n\nBeaches are not so crowded that active users can maintain a safe physical distance of 6 feet\n\nParticipation in a solo cleanup event is voluntary and solely at a participant’s own risk\, including risk associated with COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2). Individuals should only participate to the extent that they can comply with applicable federal\, state\, and local rules and restrictions\, and the below required practices including physical distancing. \nThe following rules must be followed to ensure individuals are equipped to make an educated\, safe and mindful decision to conduct a solo cleanup while following CDC public health guidance\, local beach access restrictions\, and EPA recommendations for properly discarding used PPE items. \nBe responsible! If you are feeling sick or generally unwell\, please stay indoors and heal. \n  \n \n  \nParticipate in a Raffle: Send us your photo or uploaded the picture to social media with #hokalichallenge and tag @hokali.co and participate for a FREE SURFING LESSON + HOKALI HAT. \nWhere to find US: Look for the HOKALI Flag at the beach. Our coach Paislee will be there waiting for you :). His contact information is: +8188237711 \nWhat to bring: mask/cloth face covering\, gloves\, 60% alcohol-based hand sanitizer\, grabbers (if you have them)\, 2 separate collection receptacles. \nCheck with your local authority on beach use and access restrictions. Select a location where you can maintain a minimum physical distance of 6 feet. Avoid crowded areas at crowded times. \nWear a mask or cloth face covering when in public per CDC recommendations. \nWear gloves. We cannot stress this safety precaution enough. Viruses can live on hard surfaces\, and individuals should exercise extreme caution when collecting litter. Wearing gloves discourages you from touching your face or face covering. If using reusable gloves\, be sure to properly sanitize between uses. Effective sanitization of a reusable glove depends on the material. Individuals should comply with CDC and EPA guidance on how to effectively sanitize reusable items against COVID-19. \nGrabbers are a good way to minimize contact between your gloves and trash items. Sanitize these after use and before transport or storage. \nRefrain from touching your face or public surfaces during the cleanup. \nRemember to use hand sanitizer after the cleanup is over\, then wash your hands with soap and hot water for 20 seconds as soon as you’re able to do so. \nRemember to properly disinfect all reusable equipment before and after the cleanup using an EPA-approved product for use against SARS-CoV-2\, the virus that causes COVID-19. \nFor more information check out Surf Lessons website: www.hokali.co \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nHours\nEvery 2nd of the Month: 12:00pm – 1:30pm \n\n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \neventbrite.com/e/hokali-beach-cleanup-day-venice\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

Designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro in collaboration with Gensler\, the museum offers free general admission and presents an active program of rotating temporary exhibitions and innovative audience engagement. The Broad is home to 2\,000 works of art in the Broad collection\, which is one of the world’s leading collections of postwar and contemporary art. \n  \n \nThe Broad from Home\nThe Broad is committed to inspiring and fostering an appreciation of contemporary art through our digital initiatives. Experience #TheBroadFromHome to find inspiration through music\, poetry\, performance\, workshops\, and conversations centered around the Broad collection. \nOverview \nPerformances \nTalks & Conversations \nArtist Spotlight \nFamily Art Workshops \nMore Online Programs \n  \nThe Broad Collection\nEli and Edythe Broad have been building their collection of postwar and contemporary art over the last 50 years. With a belief that the greatest art collections are built when the art is being made\, the Broads took to collecting art of their own time. \nThe Broad is home to 2\,000 works in the Broad collection by more than 200 artists\, and is one of the world’s leading collections of postwar and contemporary art. The collection features in-depth holdings of influential contemporary artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Mark Bradford\, Jasper Johns\, Jeff Koons\, Barbara Kruger\, Yayoi Kusama\, Kerry James Marshall\, Julie Mehretu\, Takashi Murakami\, Robert Rauschenberg\, Ed Ruscha\, Cindy Sherman\, Cy Twombly\, Andy Warhol\, and more\, plus an ever-growing representation of younger artists. \n  \nView Our Collection Here\n \nIn Under the Table\, 1994\, the viewer is both in the world of imaginary giants and in the world of remembered childhood. Fusing Alice in Wonderland with the Duchampian tradition of the readymade\, Artist Robert Therrien constructs a doppelganger from an everyday object\, both displaying his visual wit and actualizing literary or imaginative fantasy in three-dimensional space. The table exudes an extraordinary aura\, compelling one to walk underneath the table and conjuring the physical memory of being under the table of one’s childhood home. Complicated and powerful\, the work offers fresh ideas of what a table\, sculpture\, and memory can mean. \n  \n  \n \nUsing the recognizable form of a balloon twisted into the shape of a dog\, Koons has frozen a moment in time\, exaggerating both scale and material. \nBalloon Dog (Blue) is literal and abstract. When standing close to it\, one’s own distorted reflection bends around smooth pert curves. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nGeneral Admission is Free\nThe Broad requires all visitors must reserve timed tickets in advance. Some exhibitions and events carry a separate charge. \n\n\n\n\n\nHours\nMonday: Closed\nTuesday – Wednesday: 11:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.\nThursday – Friday: 11:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m.\nSaturday: 10:00 a.m.-8:00p.m.\nSunday: 10:00 a.m.-6:00p.m. \n\n\n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nwww.thebroad.org\n \n  \nFind more

SUMMARY:Roundhouse Aquarium
DESCRIPTION:OPEN DAILY- Manhattan Beach Pier\nThe Roundhouse Aquarium is located at the end of the Manhattan Beach Pier. The Roundhouse has undergone a recent revitalization through a $4 million capital project spearheaded by the Harrison Greenberg Foundation. The new Roundhouse Aquarium educates and inspires more than 300\,000 visitors every year. It is managed and operated by the nonprofit oceanic and environmental organization Oceanographic Teaching Stations\, Inc. (OTS)\, whose mission is to connect and engage visitors and students to the oceans through hands-on interactive experiences with marine life and habitats of southern California\, and to inspire them to become good stewards of our environment. \nOTS’ programs at the Roundhouse Aquarium promote the study of the oceans\, tidelands and beaches of Southern California through a wide slate of science-based and standards-aligned education programs with its immersive and engaging exhibits of a diverse array of marine life.  More than 100 marine animals from Southern California’s waters live at the aquarium\, many are native to its local waters in the Santa Monica Bay. Notable wildlife include moon jellies\, sharks\, octopus\, sheepshead\, moray eels\, lobsters\, and more – as well as a touch tank with sea stars\, sea cucumbers\, sea urchins and sea snails. The aquarium prides itself on being family oriented. It’s a great place for kids to take their parents! \n\n\n\n\n\nCome SEA our Marine Exhibits\nGet to know the habitats within Southern California by visiting our diverse marine exhibits. These exhibits are showcased within 4 Aquarium Galleries. \n\n\nMarine Habitat Gallery\n\nRocky Reef Tank \nThe Rocky Reef shows us what reefs in the cold California waters look like. They are similar to coral reefs but are made up of rocks instead of corals. They are just as important of a habitat as coral reefs and often serve as a nursery for many types of juvenile fish. \nKelp Forest Tank \nThe Kelp Forest tank represents a distinct southern California marine habitat. This tank shows us what it looks like to swim at the edge of the kelp forest\, where rocks become scarcer and sand more plentiful. Many of the animals in the tank can live their life deep within the kelp forest or at the very edge. Those animals at the edges can even camouflage in the sand. \n\n\n\n\nEducation Gallery\n\nDeep Kelp Forest Tank\nThese tanks represent a very diverse and abundant habitat\, the kelp forest! The giant kelp that grows 2 feet a day\, provides food and shelter for many different animals. Not only is this habitat important for animals\, but it is also important to humans as well! Seaweeds\, like kelp\, produce about 70% of our oxygen through photosynthesis. So\, take a deep breath and thank kelp! \nTide Pool Tank\nAll the animals that you can find in our touch tank live in a habitat called a tide pool. When the tide is low and the water has receded\, pools of water are left in between rocks which form the tide pools. In Southern California\, we have 2 high tides and 2 low tides every day\, which means the animals’ habitat is always changing. They must have special adaptations that allow them to live in such a dynamic habitat. \nPier Piling Tank\nHave you ever wondered what is under the pier? This tank will give you a good idea! Pier pilings\, while man made\, do create a habitat for lots of animals ranging from mussels\, to crabs\, to fish and rays. The fish can either hide amongst the mussels or lay on the sand under the pier among the rays. \n\n\n\n \n\n\nMarine Science Gallery\n\nJewel Tank\nSee our animals in the spotlight with cool adaptive traits like our spotted rose anemone that has biofluorescence and our baby swell shark eggs that can camouflage as seaweed. The baby swell sharks are really cute when they hatch out too! \nPipefish Tank\nThe Pipefish tank is an example of a mudflat with eelgrass beds that act as a nursery for young fish and young sting rays. See if you can spot a pipefish in the eelgrass. \nArtificial Reef Tank\nThe Artificial Reef tank is an examples of man-made structures left behind that now act as reefs teaming with life from sea anemones on rock scallops to sea stars to juvenile rockfish. Can you see the bright orange Garibaldi with blue spots? \nOctopus Tank\nThe octopus tank is an example of a deep water habitat brought to life for our guests to see. It features anemones and rock scallops on the reef which also add structure and microhabitats to the reef. The decorator crab uses the colonial strawberry anemones to help decorate its body to camouflage with the reef. There are small but colorful rockfish like the half-banded rockfish that stay close to the rocks and use them as shelter. \nKid’s Kelp Corner\nHave you ever wondered oh why\, oh why did my goldfish die? Come find the answer in the Kid’s Kelp Corner. You can also relax and read the many ocean related books in our library while watching our inquisitive freshwater fish. \nDiscovery Center\nCome check out what it means to be a scientist! Observe plankton\, learn about the food chain\, and discover some of the aquarium’s smallest residents. \nSeahorse Tank\nSeahorses are some of the most fragile sea creatures in the ocean\, and they can camouflage to look like seaweed\, eelgrass\, or even sea fans. They use their tails to hold onto eelgrass and stay upright\, but they won’t swim except in short bursts. They have excellent eyesight that they use to track their prey\, which are small shrimps. \n  \n\n\n\nImmersion Gallery\n\n\n\n\n\nOctober through March\nMonday-Friday: 2PM – 5PM\nSaturday-Sunday: 10AM – 5PM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n}\n\n\nApril through September\nMonday-Friday: 2PM – 7PM\nSaturday-Sunday: 10AM – 7PM \nHours\nMonday: Closed\nTuesday – Saturday: 10:00am – 5:00pm\nSunday: 11:00am – 5:00pm \n  \n\n\nAdvanced timed-entry reservations are required.\n\n\n\n\n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nroundhouseaquarium.org/\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n  \n
