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. Â
A few of the Top Things COAST’s organizers are most excited for:
- All-string female Mariachi band Las Collbrà (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.)
