LA Conservancy Art Deco Tour 

Saturday, 30 September, 2017

Join us for this wonderful tour of historic downtown Los Angeles Art Deco landmarks. The tour will be conducted by an LA Conservancy docent. Our group will be gathering in Pershing Square at 9:30 AM and the tour will begin at 10:00 AM. The tour covers 12 blocks and approximately 2.5 miles so please wear comfortable shoes and clothing, and bring snacks and water. Lunch afterward at Masa of Echo Park (serves Chicago Deep Dish Pizza) is also being considered.

Overview of Tour Nothing evokes Jazz Age elegance like Art Deco. Its clean lines and geometric patterns proved a perfect style for L.A. in the ‘20s and ‘30s, and an extraordinary collection of these masterpieces still stands in the heart of the city.

On this tour, we will marvel at the incredible detail of these structures, with their brilliant colors and lush materials. We will learn how Art Deco made its way to L.A., and why it became such a defining architectural style in the city.

Let’s take a stroll through the jazziest part of town!

Ticket Purchases Every attendee is responsible for acquiring their own ticket for the tour, and may purchase tickets directly through the LA Conservancy website (https://www.laconservancy.org/events/art-decowalking-tour). Tickets currently cost $15.00. Depending upon interest, we may be able to coordinate a group purchase.

El Moro Canyon - Emerald Bay Day Hike

Sunday, October 29, 2017

Come join our group for a pleasant moderate day hike in scenic El Moro Canyon located near Crystal Cove Park in Newport Beach, CA. We will be gathering at the trail head adjacent to Lower Parking Lot in the Day Use Area. Day Use parking fee is $15.00 so please carpool / rideshare with others.

The hike will begin promptly at 8:00AM when we will proceed northward through the center area of the canyon. The path rises quickly at the 1.1 mile cut across. We will then hike along the perimeter of the park in a counter-clockwise direction, passing various campground sites and making our way back to the lower use area trailhead. The total distance is roughly 9.0 miles with variation in elevation between 35 and 1800 feet.

Please arrive prepared with the club recommended essentials (www.greatoutdoorsla.org/essen.html). Snack breaks will be taken at regular intervals. A scenic break is planned at the lower campground site on the east of the park with a beautiful panoramic view of the canyon and Pacific Ocean.
