We critique one another's work and discuss how we can put Long Beach on the map as a vibrant Artists Community. We also support the Arts in Long Beach by visiting Museums, Galleries and non traditional art openings.

Why did I start this group? I decided to start this group because I'm looking to meet friends with similar interests who want to take advantage of L.A. with me. I moved to Manhattan Beach from my home state of Iowa in 2002 but spent the past 3 years back in Iowa. The beach and warm weather called me back, so here I am again! Many of my friends are unavailable because they have moved, have new young families that are the priority, or always seem to be in the middle of a crisis. I'm looking for do …

This is a group for whoever wants to get together to learn more about the Spanish Language, Spanish speaking countries and Latino culture overall.  Classes can be expensive, but I have found that a group environment is important in learning and practicing Spanish. So I created this group as an alternative. Other Spanish speaking meetup groups exist in the area, but none in Redondo/Hermosa Beach.  (So if you live in an area 30 minutes away or more, you should check your area first, although whoe …
