Big Sunday happily welcomes you to Our Really Big Community Calendar

We try to include all kinds of volunteering and helping opportunities for all kinds of interests, talents, passions, and ages! As you’ll see, these include volunteering opportunities (one-time and long-term) as well as the chance to support a nonprofit by attending fundraising events. Plus, of course, we include all of Big Sunday’s homegrown events, too! Whoever you are, and whatever you do, there is someone out there who could use your help.

Poets Jazz House Live in Leimert Park @ The Vision Theatre
Jul 30 @ 2:00 pm – Jul 30 @ 5:00 pm

“POETS JAZZ HOUSE LIVE IN LEIMERT PARK”
….just somewhere to go in the midst of searching your soul

A Spoken Word & Music Lounge where spilling your heart is art and searching your soul is mandatory to get in the door…

Inner City Cultural Center II, Inc., Kaos Network and Tuesday Conner are proud to present “Poets Jazz House Live in Leimert Park”. Host by Yawo Watts on the last Saturday of every month at the Vision Theater, 3341 West 43rd PLACE, Los Angeles, CA 90008.

Poets Jazz House is a Spoken Word & Music Lounge where spilling your heart is an art and searching your soul is mandatory to get in the door and the cover charge is always free. This little beatnik Open Mic venue is taking it to the streets with Soapbox Poetry. Join us in the courtyard where there is snapping instead of clapping, the atmosphere is lax but it sizzles. Come touch, be touched, hear the answer, heed the call…

Both audience and artist can get involved on stage or in the writer's workshop directly following the Open Mic performance. Come for the experience, come back for the cool.

This Free event is on the last Saturday of every month from 2 to 4pm at The Vision Theater, 3341 West 43rd PLACE, Los Angeles, CA 90008.

Aug 4 @ 7:45 am

Don’t miss City Impact Lab’s upcoming Social Impact Breakfasts in Los Angeles. Each breakfast features a set of speakers (Impact-Makers) and an opportunity to connect with others working to make an impact.

The next Social Impact Breakfast is Thursday, August 4, 2016. Two dynamic breakfast speakers who are working to make an impact in LA will share their stories and insights into making that impact:

  • Dr. Margaret Peterson, President of Dignity Health – California Hospital Medical Center
  • Wendy Greuel, Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority

About Social Impact Breakfasts:
Everyday in LA, thousands of people are working to make the city a better place, improving the lives of fellow Angelenos. The City Impact Lab in Los Angeles brings together those working to make an impact — in government, in the arts, in neighborhoods, in non-profits, and in business — to share breakfast and jumpstart their effectiveness with tactics for success from impact-makers across the city.

*Format
The 75 minute breakfast is formatted to provide attendees with the opportunity to 1) connect to others who can support their work, 2) learn tactics from expert "Impact Makers," and 3) find ways to more effectively create a social impact in LA. Each breakfast includes at least 2 speakers providing their specific strategies to make an impact in LA. Space is limited to 35 attendees from a cross sector of government, non-profit, business, and arts professionals.

*Cost
The Social Impact Breakfast is only $15. Space is limited, so register early.  To purchase tickets, please visit http://socialimpactbreakfast.brownpapertickets.com/.

About the City Impact Lab:
The City Impact Lab serves as a resource for Los Angeles as a way to inspire individuals, instigate action, and lead efforts to connect the city to build a stronger community by making a lasting impact. Powered by Stratiscope, the City Impact Lab was founded in 2014 to be a resource for civic leaders across LA. The Social Impact Breakfast is one of many programs that focus on convening and conversation for action and results.
