Fun & Free Things to Do with LA Kids this Weekend: Bugs, Banjos and a Solar Eclipse, May 19 - 20
Submitted by Toby B on
From Bugs to Banjos, Los Angeles has it all this weekend.
Reminding us that LA is just a collection of small towns, locals can celebrate at neighborhood festivals in Santa Monica and Hollywood.
Think you’re alone in your hobby? Not in this town! We’ve got festivals this weekend that celebrate interests of all kinds! Whether you’ve got a bee in your bonnet for bugs, or you’re silly for strawberries, there are tons of other eccentrics folks who think they're swell, too. There are hoedowns for those who sing the praises of strings, both the fiddling and puppet-wielding variety. And if you’re all about getting out and moving, you can find like-minded folk traveling by foot and by sea.
Think your hobby eclipses them all? You might be right, if you’re gazing skyward. We’ve got two places to view this weekend's solar eclipse, (just don’t look directly at it!)
