Did you know that Los Angeles is known as the Mural Capital of America? Did you know that murals were banned for a decade until last year? Come take a stroll down Mural Mile in Pacoima on Sunday, October 12th to celebrate LA Mural Day with Los Angeles Walks and the Public Art Initiative. The walk will feature 10 murals and a special guest speaker.

Today, the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) released its new strategic plan, entitled Great Streets for Los Angeles.

A lot of big events going on in DTLA right now. This very second. Then things slow down. Then CicLAvia. Good week.

SMMoA presents a FREE screening of Bogotá Change, a fast-paced portrait of a city on the move. The film chronicles the terms of Mayors Antanas Mockus and Enrique Peñalosa, who proactively transformed Bogotá, Colombia in less than 10 years. From mimes in place of traffic police to a burst of bicycle paths and green spaces, these unorthodox officials championed the use of creative solutions for complex social problems. The film also touches on the original ciclovías, just ahead of the return of Los Angeles’ CicLAvia on October 5. Feel free to bike in! Bike racks will be available courtesy of Santa Monica's Transportation Demand department. Mockus served as mayor of Bogotá from 1995 to 1997 and again from 2001 to 2003, while Peñalosa was mayor from 1998 to 2001.
