## Resource

Santa Monica’s State of the City 2026 is set for Thursday, July 23rd, transforming Main Street into a vibrant block party from 4 to 7 PM under the theme “Realignment to Renaissance.” Celebrate the city’s recent wins — like expanded library hours — and preview 2027’s big moves, including leveraging the FIFA World Cup and Olympics. Mayor Torosis will deliver the keynote at 4:30 PM. Expect live music, poetry, DJ sets, family activities, and community booths. Main Street will be closed between Ocean Park Blvd and Hollister Ave — plan ahead with bike valet, free transit via Big Blue Bus (mention “State of the City”), or carpool. Free, open to all — it’s your chance to see Santa Monica’s bold future unfold. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
