DWP Light Festival walk and PROS meeting at Griffith Park.

Start the month off with a festive meeting! In case you wondered what these Griffith Park meetings are like, here’s your chance to see. These meetings are always open to the public, and new people are warmly welcome. I don’t think food has ever been offered before, so take advantage and come on by! Fun walk afterwards looking at the DWP lights the way they can best be seen – on foot.
