Enjoy a beginner friendly tai chi class set on the grass with ocean views. Led by Sierra Holistic Collective, which has supported the San Pedro community for over a decade, the session focuses on easing stress, calming the mind, and renewing energy through slow, flowing sequences with a meditative focus. Instruction follows the Yang style with thoughtful adjustments to support balance and help prevent falls. The class takes place outdoors, so dressing for the weather is recommended. There is ample free parking, and sessions are cancelled when it rains. No mat is required, and drinking water afterward is encouraged. Learning tai chi unfolds gradually, and it is normal to need time and patience as the movements become familiar. Anyone who is pregnant or managing injuries or health conditions should consult a medical professional beforehand. These beginner sessions are offered free through a nonprofit, with optional donations that help sustain programs that reduce stress, support emotional well-being, and promote mental and physical health. An online, step by step course for newcomers is also available to complement practice in the park.

MultiCon is a single day celebration that channels fan passion into fundraising. Launched in 2025 as a grassroots answer to the Los Angeles wildfires, it rallied creators, talent, and fans in under a month and generated over $100,000 for impacted communities. The sold out first edition showed how the energy of a convention floor can translate into real change. Now an annual gathering, it brings fans together with the creators, artists, talent, and industry leaders behind beloved stories, characters, games, and worlds. Expect panels, cosplay, gaming, celebrity appearances, and immersive activations for a full day of experiences and meaningful conversation. Every ticket, sponsorship, and activation supports Make An Impact, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that strengthens local organizations and grassroots efforts across the country. Created by Multihouse and the Global Entertainment Marketing Academy (GEMA), this benefit for Make An Impact takes place at Skirball Cultural Center.
