Join us for the first-ever Endless Summer C.A.M.P. (Community | Art | Music | Picnic) at Tongva Park celebrating community, arts and culture. Attendees are encouraged to pack a picnic, blankets, and beach chairs and enjoy four Saturday afternoons of free programming showcasing music and dance from Brazil, Cuba, Latin America, and Hawaii, including GRAMMY® Award-winning artist Daniel Ho. Youth from Santa Monica will take the stage performing orchestral and chamber music, Balkan music, Hawaiian dance, and Ballet Folklorico. Hands-on craft workshops celebrating the park’s plants and world traditions enhance the day’s activities. The Ice Guys LA will serve frozen treats for purchase. Tongva Park’s amenities include a splash pad, playground, ocean observation deck, public art, and 100+ species of plants.
