Celebrate Community in the Riviera Village Third Thursday!

Retail shops located in the
Riviera Village in South Redondo Beach have joined together to create “Third Thursday in the Village!”
It will take place Thursday July 17th  with participating shops open until 8 p.m.

“We really want this to be a celebration of
community!”  explains Royce Morales,
co-coordinator of the event that now has live music throughout the Village and shop
owners providing a variety of demonstrations, snacks, and more.



Joining forces
with local bands and singers is adding excitement to the event.  “These are local groups filled with such
talent,” Morales continues, “and it’s great to have music coming from
everywhere…it adds so much color to our charming Village!”





“We decided to create this event to create exposure for the many independent
shops in the Village, shops filled with things you could never find at a
mall!”  explains Stella Tetenbaum, owner
of Le Tete and co-creator of the event. 
“It’s great to offer something cultural and fun to do in the evenings
since most of the shops close so early. 
The Village is such a jewel and we want more people to discover it!”
