Meeting Time & Location:

Thank you for your interest in the Outreach Committee. Our diverse team typically meets monthly; however, our meeting days and times may vary due to our members' varied schedules. Please note that during winter holidays or when we are engaged in large Outreach tabling events and Town Halls, we may not hold our monthly meeting.

Last month, in June, we fully engaged with our community at two Outreach tabling events. We were at the Venice Pride celebration on Saturday, June 7th, at Windward Circle, and an all-day "Juneteenth" event at Oakwood Park on Saturday, June 21st. We enjoyed seeing familiar faces and meeting new stakeholders and visitors to our vibrant Venice.

Please note that the 3rd Annual Paul Rodriguez "P-Rod" Go Skate Day, also known as the "Venice Beach Take Over," is being rescheduled. We will provide an update soon on when you can visit us at our VNC Outreach Booth.

This month, we will hold our Outreach meeting via Zoom, as some of our team members are traveling. Please join us on Thursday, July 10th, at 5:00 PM on Zoom, just before the Administration (ADCOM) Committee meeting, which starts at 7:00 PM.

The VNC is your vehicle for making a difference in your community. We invite you to join us on Tuesday, July 15th, at our first VNC Board meeting at the Westminster School at 6:30 PM. We are excited to start our next two-year term with returning fellows and new board members who are eager to connect with you!

The Outreach Committee strives to offer meetings throughout Venice using a variety of spaces including the Oakwood Recreation Community Center (Art's Room), the Abbot Kinney Venice Library, Extra Space Storage Facility on Venice Blvd. (Community Room) and Penmar Park (Small Gym) in East Venice.

We are seeking enthusiastic individuals interested in participating in our committee, engaging with our Venice community in the neighborhood, and attending our meetings. We hope to see you soon.

Agenda Requests

The Outreach & Event Planning Committee conducts its business by reviewing and prioritizing agenda requests for Board action (generally either in the form of a motion or letter) or announcements submitted by stakeholders, governmental entities and other interested individuals and organizations. Outreach & Event Planning Committee Committee has the discretion to postpone a request, refer it to a specific committee for review and recommendation, treat it as an announcement or consider and resolve it as a non-Board administrative matter.
