The L.A. River is in the midst of a long-term transformation for the better and the non-profit Friends of the Los Angeles River is one big reason why. We at Laemmle Theatres are ardent supporters of FOLAR and its mission, through Laemmle Charitable Foundation donations and hands-on help. The next three weekends will provide ample opportunities for the latter via the 26th Annual La Gran Limpieza: The Great Los Angeles River CleanUp. Learn more and sign up here to join other caring, forward-thinking members of your community at one of several sites along the river’s meandering path through our megalopolis, including Atwater Village, Elysian Valley, Compton Creek and more.
