THE OVERVIEW
We've attended this event nearly every year and think its the bees knees!
Green trees and a small pond begin to paint the picture as you walk up to the festival. You can hear 20's style music from a distance. Enjoy a quaint variety of food trucks and booths selling vintage goodies! Aspects of 20's life are presented-- fashion, entertainment and transportation--all with the back drop of Los Angeles history. There's no better way to describe what the Homestead Museum is about than this excerpt from their website "it's a place to explore the history of the Los Angeles region from 1830 to 1930, in hopes of better understanding the past and people's ability to shape history."
