About this Event

Long Beach Heritage Presents
Built to Last: Long Beach & the Legacy of the New Deal
A Lecture by Historian John Thomas

Discover how the New Deal transformed Long Beach’s civic landscape during one of America’s most challenging eras. In this illustrated talk, historian John Thomas explores the city’s enduring WPA-era landmarks—from libraries to parks to public buildings—and the vision behind them.

This is more than a history lesson—it’s a story of architecture, resilience, and design that still shapes our city today.
