LEGO BUILDERS AT THE INGLEWOOD PUBLIC LIBRARY
2026-02-23 16:00 - 17:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Inglewood Public Library, 101 W. Manchester Blvd., Inglewood, CA, 90301, United States
EVERY MONDAY – INGLEWOOD PUBLIC LIBRARY
Design. Construct. Create. The best way to foster your child’s creativity is by providing them with the tools to build their own world and let their imagination soar. Join us at Inglewood Public Library – Children’s Services, every Monday from 4 pm – 5 pm. The Lego Bricks is specially designed for children to build, learn and create exciting play experiences. This will help develop your child’s imagination and love of building!

THE LEGO BRAND VALUES
Imagination
Free play is how children develop their imagination – the foundation for creativity. Curiosity asks WHY and imagines possible explanations. Playfulness asks WHAT IF and imagines how the ordinary becomes extraordinary fantasy or fiction. Dreaming is the first step toward doing it.

Creativity
Creativity is the ability to come up with ideas that are new, surprising, and valuable – and it’s an essential 21st-century skill. Systematic creativity is a particular form of creativity that combines logic and reasoning with playfulness and imagination.

Fun
Fun is being active together, the thrill of an adventure, the joyful enthusiasm of children, and the delight in surprising both yourself and others in what you can do or create. Fun is the happiness we experience when we are fully engaged in something that requires mastery when our abilities are in balance with the challenge at hand and we are making progress towards a goal.

Learning
Learning is about being curious, experimenting, and collaborating – expanding our thinking and doing, helping us develop new insights and new skills. We learn through play by putting things together, taking them apart, and putting them together in different ways. Building, un-building, rebuilding, thereby creating new things and developing new ways of thinking about ourselves, and the world.

Caring
Caring is about our desire to make a positive difference in the lives of children, our colleagues, our partners, and the world we live in. Doing that little extra, not because we have to – but because it feels right and because we care.

Quality
For us, quality means the challenge of continuous improvement to provide the best play material, the best for children and their development, and the best to our community and partners. From a reputation for manufacturing excellence to becoming trusted by all – we believe in quality that speaks for itself and earns us the recommendation of all.

The Old LA Zoo
2026-02-24 05:00 - 22:30 | The Old Los Angeles Zoo, 4801 Griffith Park Dr, Los Angeles, CA, 90027, United States
OPEN EVERYDAY- Griffith Park
The Old LA Zoo, or The Griffith Park Zoo, opened in 1912 and closed in 1966 with the opening of the new, Los Angeles Zoo. The abandoned site of the Griffith Park Zoo, complete with the ruins of animal enclosures, is now a picnic area and hiking trail in Griffith Park.

The Old LA Zoo opened in 1912 with a grand total of only 15 animals. Bears, Lions, Monkeys, Macaw’s, Elephants, Reptiles, Goats, and Turtles now lived in the zoo, which was built on the original site of Griffith J. Griffith‘s defunct ostrich farm.

As Los Angeles grew, the small Griffith Park Zoo was increasingly criticized as an “inadequate, ugly, poorly designed despite drawing more than 2 million visitors a year.
In 1958, the city decided to create a brand new zoo, and the Griffith Park Zoo closed in August 1966. Its animals were transferred to the new Los Angeles Zoo 2 miles away, which opened a few months later.

The animal enclosures, with the bars removed, were left as ruins and remain today. A large picnic area was added, and NOW every summer, the zoo is the location for the Independent Shakespeare Company’s Free “Shakespeare in the Park” performances.
The Old Zoo is located on Griffith Park Dr. Only 2 miles from today’s LA Zoo,

Upon arriving, you will see a small parking lot. Follow the path Up the hill to reach the abandoned enclosure.
Upon arriving, you will enter many of the original Grotto’s. There are lots of little spaces to crawl into, AND stairs to climb up.

Follow the path around to get to the upper lever where you will find even more cages & enclosures.

If you are going to come for a visit, make sure to bring a bottle of water and your imagination.

The Venice Run Club
2026-02-24 19:30 - 21:00 | Santa Monica High School, 601 Pico Blvd, Santa Monica, CA, 90405, United States
EVERY WEEK, EVERY RUN, EVERY BODY- Santa Monica & Venice
The Venice Run Club is the heartbeat of Venice. A community of runners here to better ourselves and our community. Come run with us.
48 for Change
With the combination of a global pandemic and civil unrest around racial injustice, June of 2020 set the stage for important societal and human issues to finally come to light in a more permanent way. This was the same time that two friends, Justin and Tyler, decided they wanted to take action to make a difference in the injustices and inequality we see in our communities.

The week of George Floyd’s passing, Justin called Tyler voicing his frustration from Floyd’s murder and subsequent reactions, and they joined forces to do a running challenge that very weekend that entailed running 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours. A GoFundMe was set up to collect funds from friends and family throughout the running challenge to donate to help support racial justice.
What started as a way to take the mind off of the pressure cooker of injustice resulted in a massively successful and attention-grabbing fundraiser, and eventually turned into a 501(c)3 nonprofit, still strong and growing today: 48 For Change.
Aside from fundraising and donating, Justin found that the community that gathered to run that weekend was something special, and needed its own spotlight. A place where anyone can come and simply run with a group of good people. Venice Run Club was born.
Nearly two years later, we have grown into a strong group of 200+ runners, given back $100,000 and over 1,100lbs of clothing to the LA community, guided over 40 runners to completing their first marathon, and become On’s first-ever sponsored run club in America.
Come make friends, break a sweat, and get to know the city in the best way possible: by running its streets.

6 Cognitive Benefits of VR For Kids

Research indicates that kids who play VR games that focus on training the brain have better fine motor skills and balance. In fact, they tend to have better mobility overall.
VR gaming improves spatial attention in children and gives them the ability to quickly locate a target in a field of distractors, which has proven to be a good predictor of driving ability.
Playing VR games, which often resemble actual real-world experiences, helps children translate the skills they learned in these educational VR environments to the real world.
According to recent research, children that play shooting games have increased vision capabilities. Scientists have found that the fast-paced games increase adrenaline and dopamine in the brain which helps maintain and improve brain health.
VR gaming increases mental flexibility and improves a child’s ability to quickly switch seamlessly between tasks with conflicting demands.
VR games are a great way to reduce stress and depression in children. Immersing in a VR game can result in short and long-term mood boost that helps them relax and unwind, decreasing the levels of stress a person may be experiencing.

OPEN EVERY DAY- DTLA Wells Fargo Center
Graham Garden integrates Fountain Figures I-IV, a collection of graceful sculptures created by late Los Angeles artist Robert Graham, in a newly designed outdoor plaza at Halo. For over fifty years, Robert Graham’s observation of the female form and use of scale allowed him to explore and create a range of intimate sized works and large public monuments, widely celebrated for their precise iconic detail.
The sculptures were originally part of CRA/LA’s mission in 1985 to incorporate public art in redevelopment projects and revitalize Downtown Los Angeles. The four sculptures are currently situated in an exterior landscaped setting that Graham’s son, Steven Graham, consulted on as part of the renovation at Wells Fargo Center.

Robert Graham, was a Mexican born sculptor, and although you may not be familiar with his name, you probably ARE familiar with some of his work. Graham’s monumental bronzes commemorate the human figure, and are featured in 11 public places in and around the city of Angels. Including; The Olympic Gateway at the Memorial Coliseum, The Torso at Rodeo Drive, The Great Bronze Doors and Statue of Mary at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, and The Dance Door – Los Angeles Music Center

And now, you can see his latest collection. The Robert Graham Sculpture Garden gracefully nestled in the newly designed outdoor plaza at Halo, at Wells Fargo Center.
This collection is a unique addition, to the Olympic Celebration, coming to LA in 2028, The collection of four bronze fountain figures, was inspired by gymnastic athleticism, strength, and beauty. Fountain waters flow over bronze and granite pedestals into a shallow reflecting pools, which are integrated into the Halo’s landscape.
You will find the Robert Graham Sculpture Garden at the very top of Bunker Hill, in DTLA at 330 S Hope St between Hope and Grand.

The Broad Collection
Eli 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.
The 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.

View Our Collection Here

In 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.

Using 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.
Balloon Dog (Blue) is literal and abstract. When standing close to it, one’s own distorted reflection bends around smooth pert curves.

General Admission is Free
All visitors must reserve timed tickets in advance. Some exhibitions and events carry a separate charge.

As education professionals, we understand that an appreciation of science and the natural world reaches people through many different channels. We are committed to removing any barriers that we might find standing between the members of our community and their connection to science and nature.

Natural History Museum occupies a special place in Expo Park: It’s one of L.A.’s oldest cultural institutions, and today, it’s the anchor of an emerging cultural, educational, and entertainment hub in Exposition Park. We show off extraordinary specimens in exhibitions such as Age of Mammals, the Dinosaur Hall, the Gem and Mineral Hall, and our beloved dioramas. But in addition to sharing the yesteryear of the planet, we also explore the transformation around us right now: Becoming Los Angeles, the outdoor Nature Gardens, and the Nature Lab look at the relationship between environment and people, past and present, in L.A. In all of these experiences at the museum, whether they’re inside or outside, we’re interested in the intersection of nature and culture—in L.A. and beyond.

Suihoen - The Japanese Garden
2026-02-26 09:30 - 15:30 | Suihoen The Japanese Garden, 6100 Woodley Ave, Lake Balboa, CA, 91406, United States
NOW OPEN- Van Nuys

6100 Woodley Ave, Lake Balboa, CA 91406

Nestled amidst the bustling San Fernando Valley lies an oasis of serenity – the Japanese Garden at Van Nuys, also known as Suihōen (水芳園), meaning “garden of water and fragrance.” This captivating 6.5-acre sanctuary transports you to a world of tranquility, offering a glimpse into traditional Japanese garden design and a chance to reconnect with nature’s calming embrace.

A Journey Through Three Distinct Styles
The Japanese Garden at Van Nuys is a masterpiece of design, incorporating three distinct styles of Japanese gardens. As you embark on your exploration, prepare to be enveloped by:

Tsukiyama (mountain borrowing) style: This style cleverly borrows the scenery of the surrounding hills, creating the illusion of a much larger space. Let your imagination wander as the boundaries between the garden and the natural landscape seem to blur.

Chisen (pond garden) style: A central pond, symbolizing the vastness of the ocean, takes center stage in this style. Graceful bridges connect small islands within the pond, adding a touch of whimsy and tranquility to the scene. Keep an eye out for the vibrant koi fish that call this pond their home.

Kare-sansui (dry landscape) style: Embrace the beauty of minimalism with the Kare-sansui style. Rocks, sand, and gravel are meticulously arranged to represent water and mountains, creating a space for contemplation and reflection.

A Haven for Relaxation and Reflection
The Japanese Garden at Van Nuys is more than just a visual treat. It’s a place to unwind, de-stress, and reconnect with your inner peace.

Stroll the Winding Paths: Meandering paths, crafted from natural materials, weave through the landscape, inviting you on a journey of discovery. Allow yourself to be present in the moment, savoring the sights, sounds, and scents of the garden.

Find Serenity by the Koi Pond: The gentle murmur of water and the graceful dance of the koi fish create a calming atmosphere. Take a seat on a nearby bench and let the tranquility wash over you.

Unwind Amidst the Dry Landscape: The stark beauty of the Kare-sansui style fosters a sense of peace and mindfulness. Allow the raked sand and meticulously placed rocks to inspire contemplation and a connection with nature’s simplicity.

A Cultural Gem in the City
The Japanese Garden at Van Nuys isn’t just a beautiful space; it’s a cultural gem. As you explore, you’ll encounter traditional Japanese elements like:

Torii gate: A traditional gate that marks the entrance to the garden, signifying a transition from the everyday world to a sacred space.

Pagoda: A multi-tiered tower, a familiar feature in Japanese gardens, adds an architectural touch and a sense of history.

Tea house: While not always open to the public, the presence of a tea house hints at the cultural significance of tea ceremonies in Japanese tradition.

Plan Your Tranquil Escape
The Japanese Garden at Van Nuys is open to the public free of charge (donations are appreciated). The garden is open Tuesday through Sunday, from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm, offering a convenient escape during the workweek or a peaceful weekend retreat.
Embrace the Tranquility
The Japanese Garden at Van Nuys awaits you. Immerse yourself in the calming beauty of this haven, explore the intricacies of Japanese garden design, and discover a place for relaxation, reflection, and a touch of cultural exploration. So, take a break from the hustle and bustle of daily life and find your moment of peace amidst the serenity of the Japanese Garden.

History

Established in 1981.
A centerpiece of the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center, the Garden also known as Seiryu-en or the Garden of the Clear Stream, was constructed by more than 200 volunteers who contributed more than 3,000 man-hours. The garden was designed by landscape architect Dr. Takeo Uesugi and received the National Landscape Award in 1981, the nation’s highest award for environmental improvement and community beautification. Most recently, the James Irvine Japanese Garden underwent a major restoration with the purpose of creating a revitalized green space in downtown Los Angeles and sharing the aesthetics of Japanese culture with the community. The James Irvine Garden has served the community, for nearly three decades, by providing a tranquil and elegant departure from the urban landscape. It is the intent of the Board of Directors, staff, members and volunteers of the Japanese American Community & Cultural Center that this tradition be maintained for the benefit of all.
