The event is Free and open to all ages, but registration is required to receive the specific meeting location and event map. Event starts at noon. More info here.
The 4th Annual Lunar Block Party – FA > North Hollywood is bringing a vibrant celebration of Korean, Vietnamese, and Chinese cultures to the streets this Saturday, as Lankershim Boulevard transforms into a lively street market featuring curated AAPI artisans from MAUM, interactive arts and crafts, and traditional performing arts. It’s a perfect neighborhood stroll to welcome the new year while sampling diverse food truck offerings and catching live cultural performances under the sun. Co-produced by the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, this community gathering is designed for all ages to experience the sights and sounds of the Lunar New Year. Admission is free.

Planting Seeds: Remembering the LA Fires at ArtCenter – FA > Join the ArtCenter College of Design this Saturday for a morning of reflection and collective healing.

This event is part of the Great Altadena Poppy Seed Project, a massive grassroots effort to sow 250 million seeds across fire-impacted areas. As the state flower, the poppy serves as a resilient symbol of renewal for the many students, faculty, and neighbors who lost homes and belongings in 2025. Free and open to the public.
