Grand Performances at California Plaza, downtown, is celebrating it's 25th year of offering FREE entertainment to the public. This happens during the Summer months and the first event will be starting on Friday, June 17th, at 8:30pm. They bring film, dance, the written word, music and all sorts of cultural activity from around the world and locally for your viewing pleasure. I have been attending some of their events for the last few years now and have enjoyed coming together with the L.A. community to share in their productions. Over the years I have seen mesmerizing, moving Mexican dance companies, over the top hip hop orchestras, classic Mexican film and beats from all over the world! California Plaza is the outdoor watercourt gathering place, located at 300-350 S Grand Ave, just a few steps away from MOCA. Events run through the end of September. To view their schedule of events go to grandperformances.org and enjoy a Summer evening outdoors.
