A free community gathering created by neighbors and supported by more than 30 local organizations will be held from 3 p.m. to Sunset on Sunday, March 22, at Palisades High School. This is a free event, and all are invited to come to the renewal celebration.
There will be live music, food trucks, art and family activities, and space to sit and talk. Kids can play. NO pets are allowed on the Palisades High School campus. For more information, click here.
There will be music and performances on two stages that include Luke Tyler Shelton, Andrew Cole and special guests, Pali Beats, Fancy Feet, Gerry Blanck and Palisades Studio.

Arts and Activities will include face painting, litter tattoos, Tree of Life, Wish Tree, lasso roping, a kids’ zone, photo & video booths, children’s crafts and native seed balls.
The evening will culminate with a special performance by resident Jimmy Dunne, followed by a reflection on the meaning of the Year of the Fire Horse and its symbolism of courage, transformation, and renewal for wildfire survivors.
Neighborhoods will be called one by one to illuminate their lanterns (outfitted with small battery-operated lights and a decorated Year of the Fire Horse ornament) until 400 lanterns glow — a powerful reminder that our community stands together in recovery. We will close with a brief prayer and moment of silence, followed by uplifting music to send us forward in hope and unity.
The event is free, but people are asked to register to attend (max. 5 tickets). If you’d like to support the event with a donation, you can add one during checkout. (If not, click “skip”.) All donations are tax-deductible click here.
I think all the good things being done for the palisades residents is the most positive thing I’ve heard all day ; yesterday .
People are inherently GOOD !
