GOAL!
5th Annual Pico Festival - Images by Fabian Lewkowicz
“Pico Boulevard is in the midst of one of the most exciting transformations in decades,” said Robert Kronovet, chairman of the Pico Improvement Organization. “New restaurants, art galleries and stores are opening all the time, making the Pico corridor an exciting new place for people to visit. We created the Pico Festival to highlight these changes, and make people aware of the treasure they have in their midst. We’re thrilled to introduce everyone to the rebirth of Pico Boulevard.”
Visitors to the Pico Festival enjoyed original artwork in all mediums at the Virginia Ave Park Art Pavilions where Pico art galleries, studios, and artists displayed their work. Children also participated in live art events at the Children’s Activities Pavilion, either watching new works being produced, or making their own unique creations. Live musical acts performed on the Pico Festival stage, including groups from SAMOHI, Santa Monica College and other local schools. Pico stores showcased their wares in booths, and food vendors offered delicious cuisine of all kinds. The Pico Improvement Organization gave away free hot dogs to the first 1,000.
At participating locations along Pico Boulevard, a large Sidewalk Sale temped fashionistas and bargain hunters. Participating stores had racks and tables with exciting merchandise on the sidewalk and some merchants had their entire store on sale. Types of merchandise included fabulous men’s, women’s & children’s apparel, shoes, jewelry, and much more.
The Pico Improvement Organization is a Business Improvement District encompassing the entire length of Pico Boulevard in Santa Monica. The district contains a growing number of attractions and businesses from Santa Monica College’s performing arts venues and planetarium to one-of-a-kind clothing boutiques, art galleries, coffee shops, designer furniture and more. A zone of small clubs and cafés are found along the eastern boulevard while Shutters on the Beach and Casa del Mar hotels mark Pico’s western terminus.
