Highlights from Pico Youth & Family Center's (PYFC) 2nd Annual Santa Monica Classic Car Show on the Santa Monica Pier on Saturday, September 10, 2022. Performing on stage during the event is House of Vibe. Lowride for a Cause! All proceeds benefits youth services and after-school programming for underserved youth in Santa Monica and Los Angeles County. PYFC is hosting this Classic Car Show to bring unity and awareness to the community that lowriding culture still thrives in the Westside of Los Angeles. "Through this family-friendly event we plan to educate and inspire everyone, especially our youth, to have pride in our culture and to contribute to the continuation of this beautiful art form that we know as low rider culture,” stated Charlie Chacon, creator of West Los the Documentary. “At a time when underprivileged residents of all backgrounds, especially Latino and African American residents, are being pushed out of Westside communities due to gentrification we feel that unity, awareness and visibility is needed more than ever. This car show is necessary to celebrate our region’s cultural diversity that is at risk of extinction,” stated Oscar de la Torre, Santa Monica City Councilman.
