Every last Wednesday of the month (this month, it's the 31st) you can attend Serenade Sunset at 7pm at El Cid, a night of happiness to prepare you for the upcoming Silver Lake Jubilee Festival in May. Sadly, El Cid is only 21+ so if you're still waiting for that exciting birthday like me, head next door to Mi Alma at 6pm, which is all ages. Don't worry though, Mi Alma is sure to be just as great, with an awesome stage donated by Azteca 111 Builders in the middle of a beautiful community garden.
The event is an effort to draw the community into the streets and stroll down they avenue as they experience this unique, open-house effect that is a rarity on Sunset Boulevard. Organized the by the Los Angeles Arts and Athletics Alliance non-profit, the event will raise money to support new and existing local arts and athletics programs. You can look forward to seeing these bands perform:
El Cid: Spider Problem, Blue Jungle, Manhattan Murder Mystery, and The Health Club.
Mi Alma: Verb The Adjective Noun, The Downtown Train, and The Cigarette Bums.
El Cid will additionally feature comedians Marianne Sierk, Jackie Kashian, and Sven Amsterdam, as well as poets, Douglas Kearny and Kate Durbin.
