Historic Downtown San Pedro comes alive every 1st Thursday of the month! Art galleries and studios are open to the public from 6pm to 9pm. Shops are open late and live bands play on the corner of 6th Street and Mesa. Every First Thursday is a unique event with free music, dancing, and performances right on the street.
Meander the shops and galleries at your own pace or join the FREE one hour First Thursday Artwalk Tour which features a different itinerary each month, highlighting the diverse talents of local and visiting artists along the Arts District of Downtown San Pedro. The tour begins at the Chamber of Commerce Board Room Gallery (6:30 PM) and visits 2 or 3 galleries/studios each month. It provides an opportunity to hear from and talk to the artists and curators about their shows.
The picturesque downtown area features crisscrossing Tivoli lights, creating a fun and vibrate atmosphere. You can dine at one of the various restaurants with cuisines ranging from American to English, Mexican, Mediterranean, Italian, Japanese, Hungarian, Thai, Organic Raw Vegan Cuisine and more. If you’re not in the mood for a restaurant, Gourmet Food Trucks line the streets along 6th, 7th and Mesa.
Parking is always free in the downtown area after 6:00 PM. The Red Car Trolley runs every First Thursday from 4 PM to 10 PM between Crafted and Downtown San Pedro. Find the current Trolley Route here.

Historic Downtown San Pedro is just steps away from the waterfront and features a collage of architecture, shopping, dining, art, entertainment and browsing. With its small town atmosphere and many family-owned businesses, Historic Downtown San Pedro reminds many of the neighborhood of their youth.
A wonderful time to experience Historic Down Town San Pedro is on every Friday of the month when the Local Harvest Farmers’ Market is open between 9:00 am until 2:00 pm. Every Friday is unique at this event with local musicians performing while you shop for Certified California Grown farm fresh fruits, vegetables, plants and flowers. You can also enjoy fresh hot fare from one of our many vendors, gourmet specialty foods and treats along with shopping for that special something from one of the arts & crafts vendors.

The Palos Verdes Land Conservancy harvests seeds that have grown for thousands of years right here on the Peninsula, and then raises them in the Conservancy’s nursery. Come be inspired by colorful, drought tolerant native plants that make fertilizers and insecticides virtually unnecessary, and require little or no water. Naturalists are on hand to give advice about the one gallon size pots ($8) and smaller sized pots ($5). Many of these species will attract butterflies and other pollinators to your yard.
The Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy hosts nature walks throughout the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Check our South Bay Events Calendar for upcoming events and hikes.
