Clockshop’s Community & Unity People’s Kite Festival

Join Clockshop for our 5th Annual Community & Unity People’s Kite Festival. Taking place at Los Angeles State Historic Park on Saturday, May 17, 2025 from 2:00–6:00 PM.

This all-ages, family-friendly cultural festival brings together diverse communities in Los Angeles through the art of kites and a day of joyful connection in this important public green space. Clockshop invites attendees to participate in free arts workshops, enjoy live music, and meet local community organizations to learn about their work in the nearby neighborhoods. The Kite Festival is designed as a celebration to honor the communities surrounding Los Angeles State Historic Park that fought for and steward this public parkland, recognizing their resilience, cultural histories, and aspirations.

This year’s festival is organized around the theme Entangled in Community. As we mark five years of the People’s Kite Festival at Los Angeles State Historic Park, we celebrate the relationships that emerge on and around public land: from the conversations sparked between strangers while untangling kite strings, to the vast web of community relationships that created and sustains this park.
