McMaster told commissioners that the May 17 fundraiser will be staged in the Cypress/Resin area and will feature live performance, installed art, bars and partner-program activations. He described a planned expansion called the Emerging Consciousness Broadcast Center, which he said aims to provide free, youth-facing mental and emotional health tools produced and communicated by peers and local partners such as schools and nonprofits. McMaster called the initiative a pilot he hopes to scale nationally and said the fundraiser will be a critical ‘‘blast-off’’ moment for the project.

McMaster also described the festival’s site layout — including activation of the Dave Shaw Building and a fenced compound — and enumerated local partners and program collaborators such as schools and local health and youth organizations. Commissioners asked about the site map and staff noted receipt issues for a late site plan; McMaster said he would email staff the design.

McMaster invited commissioners to attend and offered to share tickets; he highlighted youth performers and partner organizations active in the event’s storytelling program.

No formal action was required; commissioners praised the programming and its focus on youth mental-health tools.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Parks, Recreation & Community Resources Commission Meeting, May 6, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Indivisible Arts previewed its May 17 State of the Art fundraiser and described plans to expand a youth-facing online resource — the Emerging Consciousness Broadcast Center — to teach mental and emotional health tools produced with local partners.","taxTitle","Hermosa Beach City, Los Angeles County, California","taxId",71860,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6566169,"Fine Arts Festival set for June 7–8; artist reception to be held June 6 at Hermosa Beach Museum",664,2354000,3018000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3206858-66d91dc9eb2ee888d791a1322a5ce65e&start=2354&end=3018","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3206858-66d91dc9eb2ee888d791a1322a5ce65e/thumbnail_2354000.jpg","/articles/6566169/Hermosa-Beach-City/Los-Angeles-County/California/Fine-Arts-Festival-set-for-June-78-artist-reception-to-be-held-June-6-at-Hermosa-Beach-Museum","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566169-8d23d8fdc8b2a8aff4e8c9edaf6fda7a/orig.mp4?Expires=1771194530&Signature=BrCRziQ8KgOwQTmuY903FuUR7Rndh-ilk0L4JjJVwQvMtdsthKWx6zUiK0bIdf13YiECNTJZCXoj6jzA~G3qJtPqZ8Uk35G31UX4MPd4kJYEofo8evmVDMloretcMZ8cc48FLfQyO-G6yPruqYxUQq57wC8YI3x9EJ2H-yUFJqQuo59cob7KdQWOjP~KrAVexdl0SeNkuht036KkCOLE3a4Q3fXqMstSoE7c4Dyv~hSPNfi4kWMed2jjHAu0XGiUUB1vY3TwDjNJ4eTnJvkw7N45soKJViScpWDhJ2ZPCwBiDv8NP6nJ7Ly050yeJywHSWUKFOeEYne76pEXTrZiIw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Sam Perotti, president of the Odds Group of Hermosa Beach and producer of the Fine Arts Festival, presented the festival’s logistics and outreach plans to the commission on May 6.

Perotti said the festival will be held Saturday–Sunday, June 7–8 with setup on June 6; an artist reception will be held Friday, June 6 from 5–8 p.m. at the Hermosa Beach Museum. He said the festival typically uses 10-by-10 pop-up tents for artist booths and that the organizers rent the South Bay Alano Club parking lot for artist parking to avoid using community-center spaces taken by concurrent events.

Perotti said organizers expect about 75 artists, operate student-art booths (three booth spaces for student art and two for younger children’s crafts) and run a raffle that includes a donated bicycle from Hermosa Cycle. He also cited scholarship donations coordinated by a local donor and noted coordination with the Kiwanis Club and Boy Scouts for concessions and staffing.

Allison Corteen, the festival secretary, said the Friday reception is intended as an intimate opportunity for artists to meet each other and the public; the reception is free and held in the museum setting. Commissioners asked about marketing and outreach; Perotti said the festival uses a website, social media (Facebook and Instagram), local media listings and postcards/posters.

Perotti said the festival has vacancies on its board and invited community members to apply.

Dan said HPYB emphasizes an inclusive, volunteer-run experience and noted the league’s history: ‘‘It's been since the eighties, maybe the 30 sixth season this past season,’’ he said during his remarks. He described a particularly large post-2022 season spike — ‘‘we had almost a thousand kids’’ — and said the league currently draws players from Hermosa and neighboring cities. In Dan’s account, ‘‘about 40–42% of our league is Hermosa kids’’ (he described that figure as ‘‘sounds too low’’) with the remainder from nearby communities he listed by approximate percentage: Redondo Beach, Manhattan Beach and others.

Dan highlighted operations that rely on city facilities and staff, specifically the community center and Clark Courts, and singled out Recreation Coordinator Cambria for responsive support on rim height adjustments and scheduling. He described HPYB’s low registration fees in the local market and summarized the league’s community donations and capital improvements funded in prior seasons: scoreboard support for Hermosa Valley High School, repaving and court additions at Hermosa View and donations to the Hermosa Beach Education Foundation. Dan said the league donated $2,000 recently to replace worn uniforms for Hermosa Valley athletics.

HPYB described on-court activations this season, including two ‘‘Friday Night Hoops’’ events, championship nights, a Clippers camp conducted at Hermosa Valley and plans to continue partnerships with the Los Angeles Clippers, Harlem Wizards and other community activities. Dan repeatedly credited volunteer coaches and parents; commissioners praised the league’s volunteer leadership and creative programming during the presentation.

No formal action was required. Commissioners encouraged the league to follow up with staff if it needs additional city support for future events.","Hermosa Beach Youth Basketball leaders told the commission the league had a busy season with broad South Bay participation, community partnerships including a Clippers camp and donations to local school programs, and reiterated reliance on volunteers and city facilities.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6566179,"Endless Summer Classic Car Show organizer thanks city, raises Public Works fee issue for contract renewal",275,1809000,2084000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3206858-66d91dc9eb2ee888d791a1322a5ce65e&start=1809&end=2084","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3206858-66d91dc9eb2ee888d791a1322a5ce65e/thumbnail_1809000.jpg","/articles/6566179/Hermosa-Beach-City/Los-Angeles-County/California/Endless-Summer-Classic-Car-Show-organizer-thanks-city-raises-Public-Works-fee-issue-for-contract-renewal","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566179-2dbf4b8623631210df421b73ef807701/orig.mp4?Expires=1771194530&Signature=olsgSaVoPitjhPeVQSul57VlTGBwLqRhin7lebwdknRKvU3KaVaD-cFWRxSCTGymA-Gx~OKzwBmtFyd71dJ~NoWAb3c66H5zauuyC-5TvYWl4RtVQHwf0CzNBKc0AuCWFXm8zBzLBXKVd53cZSs4AE~SiykC7hT4vpUdx5bJi4190ijJTri68sewmcsXcLUyYtqrLSmUlC9JifBj~j9-hMiFGpKBbLFr2UdUpv9EnE-aIrN8CcnGCMQxDALW4V8UmKfYcSENr2sera~e1RaSv9GE1juBDIhlcv-6aKYkZj8syddV5A38GBz2tEHZlBjDaW4R2VztFpEg~SArOihlKA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","David Friedman, who organizes the Endless Summer Classic Car Show, presented a post-event report to the Hermosa Beach Parks, Recreation & Community Resources Advisory Commission on May 6, describing the 26th annual event as well attended and ‘‘a wonderful show’’ despite overcast weather.

Friedman told commissioners the show hosted 48 cars — the most the event has ever had — and that downtown tenants reported heavier-than-usual patronage. The show is run as a free community event without registration, judging or entry fees.

Friedman said the organizers were surprised 48 hours before the May event when Public Works staff asked how the event producers intended to pay $1,040 for Public Works overtime. ‘‘We don't have $10, let alone a thousand dollars,’’ he said, recounting that the club is a small 501(c)(3) and cannot quickly assemble that sum. Friedman said Brian from Public Works ultimately ‘‘made this happen’’ for the May event, but the organizers want the city’s long-term agreement to address whether this cost is the city’s responsibility or the producer’s in future years.

City staff told the commission the Public Works presence and associated direct costs grew from a recent practice requiring Public Works to manage cars loading onto and off of Pier Plaza for safety. Staff said because the car show is free to participants and remains under the 500-person threshold, the city has been able to classify it as a category 1 event and waive indirect fees; staff said they are reviewing insurance requirements and the special-event policy guide to reduce liability and the need for an on-site Public Works overtime call-out if possible.

Friedman said the club plans to continue the event and will work with the Chamber of Commerce and city staff on communication to avoid scheduling confusion that led some people to miss the show. He also thanked city staff and downtown tenants for support and said he flies back from Hawaii to run the show.

No formal action was taken at the meeting on the car show’s contract; staff said the item will be addressed when the long-term agreement is renewed.

Clarifying details from the meeting include Friedman’s reported car count (48) and the specific overtime amount mentioned by the organizer ($1,040). City staff described the current policy position that the show qualifies for fee waivers because it has no participant fees and is under the 500-person threshold but said insurance and special-event guidance remain under review for future years.","David Friedman, organizer of the Endless Summer Classic Car Show, reported a strong turnout for the 26th annual free event but said a new charge for Public Works overtime created an unexpected expense organizers lacked funds to cover; staff said event classification and insurance requirements are under review for next year’s contract renewal.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6566182,"Parks and rec commission recommends film premiere, retires three subcommittees and hears seasonal event reports",744,4426000,5170000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3206858-66d91dc9eb2ee888d791a1322a5ce65e&start=4426&end=5170","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3206858-66d91dc9eb2ee888d791a1322a5ce65e/thumbnail_4426000.jpg","/articles/6566182/Hermosa-Beach-City/Los-Angeles-County/California/Parks-and-rec-commission-recommends-film-premiere-retires-three-subcommittees-and-hears-seasonal-event-reports","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566182-a032fc39be1613ae8766aba8a916135e/orig.mp4?Expires=1771194530&Signature=Q2rKVX~EA04ojkW4rQuFaqOIUbQ7b~yB-10eBhqvRDKg4lyj-rjmklpkOjN1Wtb9clM0PuoItOujDHI9n-~46Urh9cadJI5zsJn2YtKTXhoWnZ--5N1xFZR7hW~cSk2vPIGC56AFtOrN6aXlpR6-HhuO9xlLVAKMO6SwAj~wdMEdCrQS1o41p65eFkRyEbTmJItg3DUy-YD5eYMihllUXLgS2dPbBWSzllUyEMpmqTDokDRwDuxMsXZEGf6XPDEjs2rAdooUzmg1oW~IXXtsQxxelqwZEQCrs6PoPYN8BpEQlaEtB3IfCWAlh71EW7UQ6Y1GJ6pMj9MdlcI~XMqhYw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Hermosa Beach Parks, Recreation & Community Resources Advisory Commission on Tuesday recommended that City Council approve a community-center screening event titled A Marble in a Jar Film Premiere and voted to retire three commission subcommittees that completed their work. The commission also received post-event and pre-event reports from local event organizers and the department director.

The commission voted 3–0 to recommend approval of the A Marble in a Jar Film Premiere, a South Bay Board Riders Club event scheduled for Friday, June 6, 2025. Staff said the producer expects about 350 attendees and that the event will use the community theater and the community center courtyard for a 5–7 p.m. reception followed by a 7–9 p.m. screening; Tatiana Weston-Webb is scheduled to appear. The commission’s positive recommendation will be forwarded to City Council for formal action at its May 13 meeting.

The commission also approved a motion to retire three standing subcommittees — the Clark Building Renovation Subcommittee, the Greenbelt Pedestrian Trail and South Park Accessible Playground Renaming Subcommittee, and the Hermosa Beach Concert Series Subcommittee — noting each had completed the tasks assigned to it. That motion carried 4–0.

Commissioners and staff heard presentations from a range of community event organizers. Dan, the incoming president of Hermosa Beach Youth Basketball (HPYB), described operations, volunteer leadership and recent youth-program partnerships, saying the league runs volunteer-driven programming that draws players from across the South Bay and highlights opportunities such as Clippers camps and championship nights. David Friedman, who organizes the Endless Summer Classic Car Show, presented a post-event summary of a 26-year free community car event and raised a contract/fee issue related to Public Works overtime that event organizers say must be clarified in the event’s long-term agreement.

Sam Perotti presented the Fine Arts Festival plans for June 7–8, including a Friday night artist reception in the Hermosa Beach Museum on June 6. Allison Corteen, the festival secretary, described the reception as an opportunity for artists and members of the public to meet in a smaller setting; Perotti said the festival expects roughly 75 artists and uses 10x10 pop-up tents.

Rafael McMaster presented plans for Indivisible Arts’ State of the Art fundraiser May 17 and described a larger youth-facing initiative he called the Emerging Consciousness Broadcast Center, a planned online resource for youth mental and emotional health tools produced with local partners.

In the Community Resources director’s report, staff highlighted department representation in the California Parks and Recreation Society (CPRS), noting recreation coordinator Nick Shattuck served as outgoing district president and Brian Souza was appointed incoming president of District 9; Cambria Vint was reported as appointed secretary of the state board’s aging section. Staff also noted that City Council on April 8 approved renaming the Greenbelt Pedestrian Trail to Greenbelt Accessible Trail and renamed the South Park playground the South Park Casey Roar Accessible Playground, and approved a long-term agreement for the Hermosa Beach Open through 2027.
