Every year, you – LA Walks supporters – join us for March Forth!, where we celebrate walking and recommit to advocate for safe, accessible, fun, and equitable walking for all in Los Angeles.
To mark March Forth! this year, we’re hosting a FREE block party and a nearby fundraiser party in Historic Filipinotown. Two events. One day. TONS OF FUN. It’s going to be blast!
Join us at the block party from 12pm-3pm and at the fundraiser party from 2pm-5pm. Go to one, go to the other, or go to both!
From 12pm-3pm, the free block party will be held on Vendome St. between Council St. and Beverly Blvd. The block party will include big old-school games, skateboarding lessons, bike lessons, Jeepney tours, a bouncy house, and lots more.
