This Saturday = The Art Parade

Presented by LACMA in collaboration with Jeffrey Deitch as part of the Block Party during the David Geffen Galleries Grand Opening Weekend. The parade will be the culminating event of the Block Party, after a day of free museum access, music, food, and family-focused art activities across campus at LACMA.

A Sky of Stitches by Yarn Bombing Los Angeles

A Sky of Stitches will be a moving, handcrafted installation of yarnbombed knitted and crocheted (and stitched!) umbrellas and parasols. Worn and carried by our artists as we walk in the parade, each umbrella acts as sculpture and shelter, a colorful canopy symbolizing the unity, care, and creative resilience that makes Los Angeles unique.

Yarn Bombing Los Angeles envisions a river of color weaving its way through Wilshire Boulevard, transforming cast-off rain gear into radiant, joyful emblems of community art. Each piece will be carried by the artist, custom-designed and adorned with recycled and repurposed fibers, and bear motifs inspired by Los Angeles’s rich cultural tapestry, from blooming jacarandas to iconic buildings and cityscapes to coastal sunsets.

Participating Artists: Renaissance Austin, Amy Bauer, A. Laura Brody, Sandy Dingman, Melissa Federowicz, Frannie Garretson, Enzo Gott, Joe Gott, Zephyr Gott, Megan Herting, Francesca Innocenti, Gem Lagonoy, Charlotte Marshall, Lauri Mraz, David Orozco, Eve Orozco, Lily Orozco, Max Orozco, Pacific Palisades Art Association, Teresa Rachilla. Sylvia Reyes, Amy Starbin, Sarah Todd, Darlyn Susan Yee.

For those who dare here is what we did last year.

This year will be even more clanging as the we are now covered in tin for the 10th anniversary show of sounpedro!

soundpedro2026 Tin–

FREE, one night on-site event
Saturday, June 6, 7-10 PM

Angels Gate Cultural Center
3601 South Gaffey Street, San Pedro, CA 90731

Riffing on the traditional ten-year anniversary gift, Tin– will feature installations, performances, and roaming presentations, as soundpedro2026 marks a decade of experiments, sonic reflections, and sensory replays.

Sculptures, environments, installations, timed and ongoing performances, interactions, and presentations are placed throughout the Angels Gate Cultural Center site (*AGCC has 7 acres of outdoor space).
soundpedro is not a music event.
*Note: Be prepared for rough terrain, sun and wind exposure, and temperature changes (e.g. jackets, umbrellas, blankets, practical footwear, etc.)

I’ll be talking about my art, what led me to do what I do, and maybe a little lesson on recycling in California. Never know where the conversation will go. Plus people in the Zoom can ask questions. Happily two members of SCWCA will keep us on time. This is only an hour talk. Including the introduction and questions.

For those able to tune in you can connect here.

If you are unable to zoom in with us, know that it will be recorded and put on YouTube for you to watch later.

This Wednesday is the walk/ride of Silence. There will be a ghost bike on a trailer for everyone to decorate, a bike trailer ofrenda, and candle light vigil. This will be a slow paced ride/walk so that everyone, no matter how you get around can participate.

If you are able to please join us. I have a large collection of pipe cleaners and tissue paper from neighbors so that we can decorate bikes before the ride. Or you can hold a flower as you walk.

Date: Wednesday, May 20th

Starting location: Trolley Park (2nd & Redondo) Starting time: 5pm (you may show up late or meet us at the bluff if unable to be there at 5pm)

Parade path: West on 2nd St until reaching Bixby Park, then turning South onto Junipero until reaching Bluff Park

Ending location: Bluff Park overlooking the ocean

Join City Council Club this Tuesday, May 19th (and 6/16 too). Grab some paper & a pencil and attend the next City Council meeting with friends/neighbors. Learn what is going on so you can share your voice and be a more informed voter. Who doesn’t like ice cream? If that is you, they have brownies. And vegan options. And water. Or you can go home afterwards. You may also show up late, we are flexible and welcoming to all our Long Beach neighbors.

Date: Tuesday, May 19 - TOMORROW

Time: 5pm

Location: Long Beach City Hall 411 W Ocean Blvd 4th Floor, Long Beach, CA 90802

Are you still saving the date of Saturday, June 6th from 7-10pm? I hope so. See you on the hill for soundpedro ….

Won’t you ride your bike with me? In memory of those who have been taken away by traffic violence we ride and walk as one. For those who don’t know I have had a close friend killed by a hit and run while she was on her bicycle. She was almost home. And her home was next door to mine. I have a daily reminder of this loss as I had previously a daily visual of her. We rode bikes together, we took long walks together, we ate, celebrated and talked all the time. She was there for me when I had a loss a month before losing her. So this has been a double grieving year for me.

If you are able to please join us. I have been collecting more pipe cleaners and tissue paper from neighbors so that we can decorate bikes before the ride. Or you can hold a flower as you walk.

Date: Wednesday, May 20th

Starting location: Trolley Park (2nd & Redondo) Starting time: 5pm (you may show up late or meet us at the bluff if unable to be there at 5pm)

Parade path: West on 2nd St until reaching Bixby Park, then turning South onto Junipero until reaching Bluff Park

Ending location: Bluff Park overlooking the ocean

We are planning to have an ofrenda and candlelight vigil at the bluff as well.

To end on a happier note, SAVE THE DATE. Dr. DethRyde and I are once again going to be haunting the hills of Angel’s Gate in San Pedro! So please join us. We may have a participatory aspect to our performance this year. So get ready to make some ‘sound’ with us. First though, you have to locate us as we roam the hillside.

Sunday, May 3rd - art show and workshop at The Jewel Box Children’s Theater from 4-6pm

Pictures from FADLA 2026 are up on my website! Why’d this take so long? Good question, but the year has been rocky and some things take longer than others, but they get done. Eventually : )

Friday is May 1st and the first day of National Bike Month. Expect bicycle related art and bike rides. Check out LBC bike rides, Car-Lite and Bike Long Beach calendars for more ride information. Hope to see you on a ride. The more people riding bicycles the safer the roadways become.

The “Safety in Numbers” Principle

• Driver Awareness: As more people use bicycles for transportation and recreation, drivers become more accustomed to looking for them, reducing the likelihood of accidents.

• Improved Infrastructure: Higher ridership is often accompanied by improved infrastructure, such as protected bike lanes, which reduce injury rates by 28% to 89% compared to traditional roads.

Want to do more?

• Join Group Rides: Participating in social rides like Moonlight Mash or any of the above calendar links. This helps build the “safety in numbers” effect.

• Advocate for Infrastructure:

  • Contact Officials: Write to your city council to support protected bike lanes and more bike parking.

  • Attend Meetings: Show up to public planning meetings to ensure cycling needs are included in new road projects.

• Encourage Local Businesses: Ask your favorite shops to install bike racks or offer discounts to customers who arrive by bike.

I’m happy to share that Dr. DethRyde and I will be performing in soundpedro again this year! The theme is ‘Tin’ so expect a shiny ensemble and some loud clanking! I won’t have a videographer following me around this year, but feel free to do so yourself and share some videos and photographs!

For 2017 I was ready to enter the Reseda show when I had a lightbulb moment. Why not start my own? {insert history of the original Fun A Day show which started in Philadelphia for those who don’t know - click the words to read about them on their wiki page.}

So that is what I did. Starting in 2016 I promoted the show for 2017. Because putting together community shows is super fun, but you need to start early. I always start in July. But for our 10th year I actually started planning in 2024. Okay, many factors got in the way and the grand ideas may or may not all come together. But those can be saved for year 20! OMG do you think I can make it happen? Would you join in?

Anyways, registration for the 2026 show is live. I hope you join. I hope you tell everyone, and invite them to join. This truly is an all ages show. And all kinds of art are included. Every single year there are multiple people who join who have never ever shown their art in an art show of any kind. It really is amazing and lights up everyone’s face with a smile.

The joy. The friendships. The conversations. The commiserations. The hugs. The ideas. The spark. These are a few of the reasons this show is so popular and I am encouraged to do it every year. We have many people who are in every show. They start planning and making the year before. The memories are another reason people participate. We love discussing the new techniques we shared with each other. We love hearing the reasons people chose the projects they did. We laugh and dance and sing and celebrate the bright side of life. Nothing stops the fun. Not even a lockdown. Did you look at the huge amount of art we created at our largest and international show in 2021? It’s still online. Go look now.

So as I said, I hope you join in the fun. Being an artist is NOT a requirement. Being a human might also not be required, but you will need a human to fill out the form.

Here is the registration form.

Show information for 2026:

Fun-A-Day-LA Now TEN years old!!!! Join us in the celebration of reaching double digits!!

The idea is beautifully simple: choose a creative adventure—📸 capture a photo, 🧼 whip up soap, ✏️ sketch a moment, 🍰 bake something sweet, 🎴 paint a tarot card, 🧶 knit tiny blankets for tiny paws, 🎲 design a board game, 💍 craft jewelry or clothing, ✊ make protest art, 📝 write poetry, 💃 create a dance, 🎶 compose a song… whatever makes you smile.

Create at your own rhythm throughout January, then ✨ unveil your magic ✨ in February at our all-ages, all-inclusive community show!

Working on a project once a day in January is one great way to participate in this show, but feel free to create in your own time and at your own pace if you prefer. We would love to see whatever you’d like to share!

This show is free to submit and attend, and is non juried. There will be meetups in January and February with prompts for art making and community art canvases that everyone is encouraged to add paint to! You can work on your art, meet others and help spread the word about the show.

Trashion Terminal: The Sound of a Place That Refuses to Die
The Trashion Terminal is no silent ruin. It hums, howls, and pulses alive with layered, industrial soundscapes that echo off shattered concrete and twisted iron. It’s not just a fashion hub. It’s a sonic environment, shaped by time, decay, and the defiant creativity of its inhabitants. Atmospheric soundscape of the depot. Beats blend with the screech of iron, hissing steam and skeleton jazz. The depot breathes with sound. An evolving industrial symphony that pulses through rusted rails and torn fabric banners. You don’t just hear it. You feel it in your ribs. “The terminal didn’t whisper. It clanked, spat steam, and rattled its bolts like it wanted to dance but forgot the steps.”

LBsoundbrowse Heard
Saturday, November 15, 2025, 6-9 PM

Belmont Shore, Long Beach, CA 90803
Free & Open to the Public

Video above from June 7th 2025 at SoundPedro

Heard
Silence, bent to listen
In an environment where noise has become an accepted intrusion, “Heard” reclaims unstrained listening. A sound art intervention, “Heard” critiques the commercial soundscape’s temptations, to carnival bark, decibel duel, and to drown out voices just inches apart.

Through the interplay of aural & oral modes, where spoken words, ambient lull, historic loops, and intentional silence converge, “Heard” asks “At what inaudible decibel does memory din? What emerges when silence bends to listen back?”

An experiment to both provoke and enhance, this lowercase sound experience resists self-enchanted noise making & searing ear’branding.

Experience intersections of art and commerce at LBsoundbrowse in Belmont Shore, where occupied and empty storefronts, along with mixed-use spaces, become sites for chance encounters and auditory serendipity. Step away from algorithm-driven fast-tracking and immerse yourself in the leisurely analog experience of sound browsing.

Dear Friends,

Thank you so much for supporting the nonprofit I founded, Creative Art Events by making donations, volunteering, purchasing tickets and attending Trashion Show Long Beach. It was amazing! After last year’s successful first show I knew that this was something that needed to continue. It may have started out as a dream. It now is a reality and I am looking forward to 2026!

I had A LOT of people positively comment about all the designs, models, the interviews, the interactions and the experience. It was well received and I hope you all had a blast.

The flood of images on Instagram and FB are so inspiring. I have been getting texts and emails every day since! Everyone enjoyed seeing the show. Many designers said they would be in the show again next year. Others want to be involved and my goodness I am over the moon with happiness for the whole experience and the future. We expanded on the program with mini interactions. From the on stage interviews and discarding of layers, the models and designers really shined bright. I know we all were thrilled by each other.

And reply to this email letting me know that you are interested in being involved next year. Everyone is welcomed!

THANK YOU!!!!

Amy
