The Sidewalk Cafe's Celebrates 40 years in Venice, California!
Venice Paparazzi rolled out the red carpet for The Sidewalk Cafe's
40 year anniversary party on Sept. 23, 2016.
Here is a message from SWC' awesome GM Kristen Archival.
"I wanted to take time to say thank you to all the people and businesses that came out to support The Sidewalk Cafe's 40th Anniversary party. It was a wonderful celebration of family, friends and community. All that came walked the red carpet, listened to great music (Barry Minniefield from the Voice)
did some dancing, and enjoyed the food and drinks. The party was a great success in many ways. It was Venice at its best. The support from local businesses' for our charity raffle was fabulous! We raised quite a bit of money between ticket sales from the raffle and donating a percentage of the day's sales. The Venice Homeless Task Force and S.P.Y. (Safe Place for Youth) were
the recipients.

Venice Art Crawl's Afterburn
Here is a message from the Venice Art Crawl. "The 2-day Venice Afterburn event was, again, a huge success. To make this year so special was the new location, Windward Plaza, by the old skate park and right in front of the beach. It was the best feeling ever to realize that it's not so bad to come back from Burning Man when you can decompress so well in your own home base. It truly felt special as people were dancing to the beats of the Charlie the Unicorn art car, and the sun was setting west and the full moon rising from east, breathing the ocean breeze and in front of our home 'playa'. That's when the magic happened.
