Celebrate 150 years of Santa Monica next Saturday, December 13th with live music, salsa dancing, art workshops galore~ 🎶💃🎨✨
Get a free book from the library, too! And perhaps a poem for you, typewritten by me ^^ 📖📜✍️
Over the past six months, the community has come together to reflect on 150 years of history. Now, we invite you to celebrate the culmination of this milestone year with a free cultural festival and community gathering on the Promenade, with live music, art activations, and fun for the whole family. Learn more at celebrating150.com.
In the darkest of times,
may we hold each other
near and tight.
What more can we do,
but hold space, encounter,
and bear witness
to the lives we share together.

Feeling the burn? 🔥 It's HOT. COMRADE. SUMMER. 🔥
To our fellow comrades (current and future):
The time has come to join the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA-LA) as we laugh our way towards class consciousness and defeat FASCISM! May we renew our hope on this evening of comedy and clown as we fundraise to build a world for THE PEOPLE!

If I got off at the next station,
would you meet me there?
Perhaps you'd miss the connection
and you'd just leave me there
You could share a carriage
for more years you can count
Travel the same direction
until one of you realizes
You'd prefer sun over doomy gloom
If I get off at the next station,
I'll just walk around
Perhaps I'd miss the connection
and I'd just stay here
Stay here, stay here
If I got off at the next station,
would you meet me there?
Perhaps you'd miss the connection
and you'd just leave me there
You could share a carriage
for more years you can count
Travel the same direction
until one of you realizes
You'd prefer sun over doomy gloom
