Grand Park's Rec Center

In the spirit of community wellbeing and serving all Angelenos, Grand Park will launch a new, family-friendly digital series, Grand Park’s REC (Refresh, Empower, Create) Center, to advance a culture of health and equity in Los Angeles County, using recreational, educational and creative approaches to health. Grand Park, powered by The Music Center, will offer free intergenerational, abilities-inclusive and language-diverse sessions through rec.grandparkla.org during the spring months of April and May 2021. Each Wednesday at 12:00 p.m., Grand Park’s REC Center will premiere a new 30-minute activity including informational sessions, fitness classes, arts-based workshops and community conversations. These efforts build upon Grand Park’s existing year-round yoga program, Lunch À La Park Yoga reTREAT, which transitioned to virtual classes on Facebook in March 2020 due to the pandemic.

For the new REC programs, Grand Park is partnering with the City of Los Angeles Department of Aging, The Tree Yoga Cooperative, South Coast Chinese Cultural Center and Pan America Chinese Dance Alliance, among others, to highlight the work by Los Angeles community organizations and government agencies that provide services for all Angelenos that are especially critical during the pandemic. Given COVID-19 restrictions and Grand Park’s commitment to keeping artists and the public safe from community transmission, all programming is pre-recorded; no events will take place in Grand Park.
