Deets: Little Amal will be visiting the Santa Monica Pier on Thursday, November 2 at 5 p.m. as a part of her acclaimed Walk Across America and her visit to Los Angeles from Tuesday, Oct. 31 through Friday, Nov. 3.
Seventeen of the most influential L.A. cultural institutions and artists are joining forces to welcome Little Amal, the internationally celebrated 12-foot-tall puppet of a 10-year-old Syrian refugee girl, who will be arriving in Los Angeles on Oct. 31 as part of her epic 6,000-mile journey across the United States this fall.
Amal’s visit to Los Angeles is part of Amal Walks Across America: a nationwide journey spanning more than 35 cities and towns, 100 events and 300+ partners over two months. Starting in Boston, MA on September 7 and culminating on November 5 in San Diego, CA, the journey will take Amal through the nation’s capital, the Midwest, the South and along the Southern border. All events along the route are an open invitation to the people of the towns and cities Amal is visiting.
“Little Amal’s experience walking across America is made possible because of our amazing partners in every city, who make it a point to show Amal the best of their communities,” said Walk’s Artistic Director Amir Nizar Zuabi. “In Los Angeles, we have 17 amazing partners who are working together to create 8 beautiful events of welcome for Little Amal. We hope Angelenos of all ages join us to walk with Little Amal and bring attention to the urgent needs of refugees, immigrants and asylum seekers.”
Hint for the Average Socialite: This event is free and open to the public!
