San Pedro ♥ Festival of the Arts at Peck Park - on the upper lawn next to the Community Center

APPLY NOW FOR THE SAN PEDRO FESTIVAL OF THE ARTS The San Pedro Festival of the Arts is a free family event each September, in the past featuring Dance, Music & Visual Arts/Crafts Booths. This year, our 16th, we approach it with the focus on dance. The festival was again awarded a Department of Cultural Affairs, City of Los Angeles Festival Grant. Performance date for the festival this year is Saturday September 24 at Peck Park during the day. We are interested in all dance forms performed by professional companies including traditional ballet and modern as well as ethnic dance forms, tap, fusion, jazz, and hip hop. Also included are 2-3 pre-professional companies or schools. Any not fully vaccinated will be asked for tests 2 weeks or less before performances if that still the standard in LA County. The performance is outside and it is daytime so no projections are possible. The raised outdoor stage with a dance floor is 28 x 32 ft. Last year we created a hybrid festival with a virtual division, and until we see a bit more clearly where Covid-19 is at that point, we are anticipating mostly live, with some on video/film to be streamed.
