After months of preparation, the big day for Santa Monica Next is almost here. The site will be down for about an hour tomorrow as we relaunch a newer, sleeker, easier to navigate version of Next tomorrow. We’re excited to show you what we’ve been working on and will update folks about the exact timing while the site is down on our Twitter/X account.
Pardon Our Dust During Tomorrow’s Site Re-Launch
