February Walk with the Mayor!


In February, join Mayor Ted Winterer, Adopt-A-Walk and Santa Monica Spoke on a one-mile walk, through the neighborhood. The loop walk will leave from Reed Park–the corner of California Ave and Lincoln Blvd– at 10 am. This is a great opportunity to meet other walkers, learn about Adopt-A-Walk, Santa Monica Spoke and discuss the community with the Mayor and city staff.

Bring good walking shoes and a water bottle. Children should be in strollers or capable of walking the route, and DOGS ARE WELCOME!

If you are wondering, “what’s COAST?”
Santa Monica’s COAST Open Streets Festival marries the concept of shutting down the street to cars with a cultural festival – back for its second year! This year, the City of Santa Monica is pulling off even more live music, interactive art stations, and loads of food. The route is two-miles long, so can easily be walked, biked, skated or navigated by wheelchair.  

A few of the Top Things COAST’s organizers are most excited for:

  • All-string female Mariachi band Las Collbrí (Farmers Market)
  • Hip-hop dance group Antics (COAST Stage, 1 p.m.)
  • Kiel Johnson and reDiscover Center build Dream Tree from repurposed materials (Sustainability Zone)
  • Twenty Minute Treks, guided tours from poets and historians (Ocean & Broadway, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.)

RSVP / share the Facebook event with your friends.
