Description

The City of Santa Monica in collaboration with SMMUSD and YMCA Healthy Kids Day welcomes families to the annual Arts & Literacy Festival.  Activities for kids, storytelling, and live entertainment.

The year’s theme is “Ready, Set, Build,” and the event will host over thirty different community organizations offering games and activities that align with Santa Monica Cradle to Career Building Blocks for Kindergarten campaign.
