We will take a look at the progress being made on the new Expo line station at 26th and Olympic Boulevard, scheduled to be completed next year. We will also discuss the future of the Bergamot Station Arts Center, the impact Expo will have on SaMo’s former industrial corridor, how Santa Monica is planning assure Bergamot Station survives as a regional destination for arts and culture, and what you can do to get involved.

The conversation will wrap up around 6 p.m. and we invite to walk or ride to Santa Monica College for the 25th annual “Celebrate America” fireworks display.
