Get Outside: Local Fun This Weekend, September 12–14. Ready to clear your mind and soak up the weekend? From Pasadena to Los Angeles—and right here in La Cañada Flintridge, Glendale, Montrose, La Crescenta, and Sunland-Tujunga—there are fresh ways to live local, visit local, and have a little fun local. Explore a museum, catch live music, bike a car-free boulevard, treasure-hunt the Rose Bowl Flea, or just wander our oak-filled parks. Say hello to a neighbor and rediscover the beauty in your own backyard.
Pasadena Highlights
In Pasadena, the Pasadena Museum of History presents 100 Years / 100 Images—a vivid window into the past century. If you have kids, set up camp at Kidspace Children’s Museum. For music lovers, sway to “Made in Memphis” at Music in the Park — Memorial Park, celebrating Otis Redding, Carla Thomas, Isaac Hayes, and Sam & Dave. And don’t forget the legendary Rose Bowl Flea Market on Sunday.
