Featured Events in City of Los Angeles in June, 2025 (June Updated)

Event Overview: Step into an evening of inspiration, reflection, and celebration as we gather to honor the young men of the GRAD Foundation Mentoring Program. This is not just a banquet; it is a tribute to the legacy being shaped today by the actions, choices, and growth of each of our mentees. Theme: This year, we embrace the theme “Legacy in the Making”—a reminder that true legacy isn’t simply something built with time or age, but is formed in the choices we make in every moment. For our young men, their legacy begins today. It’s not a distant vision or something that happens when we’re older or after we’re gone. Every step they take, every achievement they reach, is an integral part of their ongoing journey. We celebrate the impact they are making right now, and the profound potential that already lives within them. Program: The evening will feature a three-course plated dinner with unlimited beverages, a year-in-review recap, and a special guest speaker. We'll also honor our graduating seniors with a special presentation as we send them off to college, acknowledging their hard work and the bright future ahead of them. And, of course, we will celebrate the achievements of all our mentees with awards recognizing the dedication and progress they have made this year. Ticket Price: $80 per person Includes a three-course plated meal and unlimited beverages. We invite you to bring your family and loved ones to join in this moment of celebration. Together, we’ll honor the present achievements and the future legacies being built right now. Additionally, your ticket purchase is not just a seat at the table, but a contribution to the continued development of these young men. Every dollar supports our activities, mentorship programs, and scholarships, helping us to guide them on their journeys, empowering them to realize their potential, and ensuring their legacy is built through every moment of growth. Parking: Free self-parking available at the venue. Thank you for supporting the foundation of tomorrow’s leaders—because their legacy is already in the making. Your participation helps fuel the journey, and for that, we are deeply grateful. Information Source: Guide Right Achievement Development Foundation | eventbrite

Let's face it, cancer's a real buzzkill, especially kids cancer. It's like that uninvited guest who shows up at your party, drinks all the good booze, and then tries to steal your karaoke mic. But we're not going to let it win! We're fighting back with our brains, our banter, and a whole lot of trivia! All funds raised are going toward the CANCER SUCKS team 's 20-mile CureSearch hike at the end of June. We are united in our dedication to make a difference in the lives of children and their families affected by cancer.

Our Amazing Trivia Host, Ben Leshen (Who may or may not have had a few "pre-game" beverages.) Delicious Drinks from Eagle Rock's local watering hole, The Fable (Let's thank them for donating their space. Also, brainpower requires fuel, and sometimes that fuel is tequila/beer.)

HEALTH & SAFETY: WE ASK THAT YOU PLEASE WEAR A FACE MASK WHILE INDOORS FOR OUR EVENTS. THANK YOU. There’s a lot of talk about oligarchs these days. Their influence, their outsize impact on our own lives have become apparent especially in the last decade. The ultrarich live in a parallel universe, but their reach touches us seemingly now more than ever. While the wealthy were always powerbrokers, the ultrarich seem to have moved right into the seats of government. In his new book, The Haves and Have-Yachts , Evan Osnos, staff writer at The New Yorker , captures the almost unbelievable lifestyle of the wealthiest titans. Their self indulgences are a curiosity to be sure— as we gawk at their outrageous and lavish displays of excess, we laugh in disbelief, and wonder at the disparity between the haves and the have-nots: the power the haves have, and the fallout to come. This is more than a peek into the lives of the ultrarich, into their luxury bunkers, their homes, their superyachts and to their extravagant lifestyles: it’s a portrait of who holds power in America. Osnos interviews these billionaires, whose excesses are often shamelessly ridiculous, and he delivers a cautionary tale about what money can buy. Spoiler alert: a lot. Osnos is the winner of multiple Pulitzer Prizes as well as the National Book Award. In conversation with Ben Rhodes. Ben Rhodes is the former Deputy National Security Advisor for President Obama. He is a New York Times bestselling author, including the great After the Fall: The Rise of Authoritarianism in the World We Made ; an MSNBC contributor, and a co-host of Pod Save the World . Limited parking onsite. We recommend rideshares and carpooling. Please allow time to find parking. Did you know that you can make a fully tax-deductible donation? As a nonprofit organization, Writers Bloc Presents relies on support from people like you. Help us to remain a strong community as we continue to celebrate literature by authors we love, and explore critical contemporary issues. Please donate here . No refunds or exchanges on tickets or books. Books must be picked up on the night of the program. Information Source: Writers Bloc Presents | eventbrite
