Making Memories Festival 2022
Local Music. Local Food. Local Cause.
Alzheimer’s Los Angeles hosted the 2nd Annual Making Memories Festival at Los Angeles State Historic Park on Sunday, November 13, 2022. The day-long festival featured a diverse and energetic lineup, including Grammy winners Los Lobos, Cut Chemist, Circle, the Earth, Valley Queen, DJ Monalisa and host, Alex Gervasi. Approximately 1500 people spent the day enjoying the beautiful weather, incredible performances, delicious food, and informative exhibitors, which provided an excellent backdrop to raise awareness and support for the cause.
