The Music Center has rescheduled its Very Special Arts Festival: Family Day from April 18 to May 2, 2026. The free outdoor event will now take place from 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Jerry Moss Plaza in Los Angeles.
The change was made in anticipation of a potential teachers union strike within the Los Angeles Unified School District, currently slated for April 14.
The festival invites families of all ages and abilities to participate in a day of live music and dance performances, interactive art-making activities, and a magic show. The event is designed to create an inclusive environment centered on creativity, accessibility, and community engagement.
Family Day expands on The Music Center’s Very Special Arts Festival: School Day, which will take place May 1, 2026. Together, the programs bring students and families into a shared space for artistic exploration and expression.
This year’s theme, “United & Inspired,” will guide the programming, encouraging participants to connect through the arts and explore their creative potential.
