Instead of large-scale programming, you’ll find smaller, more intentional and intimate experiences throughout the grounds, designed to feel grounded, welcoming, and accessible for families, youth, and adults alike.From quiet reading areas to guided water experiences, each space offers you a different way to engage at your own pace. Explore what interests you, stay for a while, or simply take a moment for yourself.Some workshops have limited capacity, so we encourage you to RSVP for any activities you’d like to attend. On the day of the event, check-in will take place at Guest Services. Signage will be available throughout the grounds to help guide you through the experience.Experience Rest Across the SiteThroughout the day, you can explore:Physical Rest through floating sessions, water safety workshops, and gentle movement in the poolMental Rest in a cozy reading nook with free books for all agesEmotional Rest through Plant Therapy, a hands-on, nature-based experience exploring the healing benefits of working with soil and plant materialsSensory Rest with calming environments, sound baths, and coastal ambianceCreative Rest through live music, artistic workshops, and inspirationSocial Rest with open, low-pressure spaces to gather or simply exist alongside othersSpiritual Rest through grounding experiences like sound baths and quiet reflectionCommunication ConsentBy signing up for this event, you agree to receive emails from the City of Santa Monica, Recreation and Arts Department.Beach House ParkingBeach House parking is available year-round on a first come, first served basis.Upon arrival, guests must pay for parking at Pay & Display machines located in each section of the lot and display your receipt on the dashboard.
