Fun Events in August

how-to-page-1 Are you in a summer rut? Here are some events around LA to check out in August!

  1. Go see a movie at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery! Take part in this longstanding tradition, where people watch old movies on top of people who used to be in movies.
  2. Do you love folk music? Then you’re in luck! The Hollywood Bowl has Glen Hansard, The Head and the Heart, and Iron and Wine playing all on the same night (August 10th). Come to this show if you want an Irish man to sing your troubles away.
  3. Interested in becoming a serious bada$$? Take up archery at the Rancho Park Archery range. There are free lessons every Saturday (and yes, the bow and arrow rentals are free too)! But make sure to get there early because these classes are very popular. May the odds be ever in your favor.
