And what is summer without ice cream? And did you know that National Ice Cream Day is July 18? In celebration of National Ice Cream Day, peeps can visit 21 Choices at One Colorado for a FREE scoop of ice cream on that day, while supplies last.
Meanwhile, the last we heard, summer doesn’t last forever. Which brings us to the “Back to School: Load the Lockers” event.
From July 26 through August 9, you can help local children in need with school supply donations benefiting the Heart of Los Angeles. Supplies needed include pencils, sharpies, folders, backpacks, binders, glue, organizers, highlighters, pens, art supplies, post-it notes, tape, construction paper and disinfectant wipes.
Lockers will be located in the Courtyard at One Colorado.
And speaking of school and books you can bring in your pre-loved books and swap them for a new read at One Colorado’s Book Swap on August 7 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
You can DIY a custom bookmark while enjoying the sounds of Prism DJs. Plus, Vroman’s Bookstore’s very own Mr. Steve will host a children’s book reading from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Remember to bring new school supplies and help us Load the Lockers benefiting the kids of Heart of Los Angeles, allowing them to rule the school year.
