This summer, Shakespeare by the Sea will transport audiences from the lush Forest of Arden to the intrigue of Ancient Rome with two of Shakespeare’s most famous plays.   As You Like It Banished from home, Rosalind flees to the Forest of Arden with friends, discovering freedom, love, and her truest self in Shakespeare’s uplifting comedy of transformation and new beginnings. Julius Caesar Loyalties are tested in Shakespeare’s exploration of the definition of honor, the agony of decision, and the cost of crossing to the point of no return.

For 54 years, Fiesta has been filling Hermosa’s streets with art, music, and fun. Fiesta de las Artes, as it was originally named, celebrated artisan culture and welcomed visitors from all around to the beach to shop and enjoy the art. For more than a decade, Fiesta has been known as Southern California’s largest beachside arts and craft festival. But we in Hermosa like to think of Fiesta simply as a treasured tradition.

Description
Acclaimed author/historian Stuart Timmons was in the process of writing his West Hollywood LGBTQ History Tour, the final in a trio of walking tours, when he suffered a debilitating stroke in 2008. The tour remained incomplete until the City of West Hollywood’s Arts Division funded its completion to help finish his research, bringing it to a rousing completion as both a self-guided walking tour and a special in-person event with performance artists as tour guides. In 2021, through a special grant, the tour was recorded as a collection of short films.
