Activities to Keep You Busy

Hello Park La Brea Residents! 

We hope you and your families are staying safe and healthy during this unprecedented time in the world. Given our increasingly confined circumstances, many of us have been trying to find new and creative ways to keep both our minds and bodies active while staying at home. Some of us are binge watching television shows we never quite got around to before while others are testing their culinary skills with more challenging recipes than they’ve previously had time to tackle. We have been brainstorming and wanted to share a few potentially fun activities for you to try: 

• Virtual Book Club – The “Quarantine Book Club” will allow people from all over to join book discussions with the authors themselves.
• Daily Live-Streaming Music Performances – This website is being updated each day with a schedule of all artists who will be performing live music via streaming services such as Instagram Live, Facebook Live, YouTube, etc. Many musicians are doing weekly (if not daily) live streams to help keep both their fans and themselves entertained while social distancing.
• 125 Quarantine Activities for Kids – Whether you’re a stay-at-home parent or you’re living that working from home life right now, there are plenty of ways to keep the whole family from going stir-crazy.
• 12 At-Home Workouts You Can Do Without Any Equipment – The best at-home workouts don’t necessarily require a ton of equipment—or any equipment—other than your own bodyweight.
• Netflix Party – Netflix Party is a new way to watch Netflix with your friends online. Netflix Party synchronizes video playback and adds group chat to your favorite Netflix shows.

PLB – COVID-19 Update Face Coverings

Dear Residents, 

Effective April 10, 2020, Mayor Garcetti is requiring that Angelenos wear a mask, bandana or other type of face covering when in a grocery store and other essential businesses.  Any face coverings should be washed after each use. 

It is important to note that wearing a face covering is not a substitute for other critical measures to slow the spread of COVID-19 — most importantly, staying home as much as possible, washing hands frequently, and practicing safe physical distancing at all times (i.e., at least 6 feet apart).

These measures will help flatten the curve and bring life back to normal for Los Angeles.  

​The Mayor’s office advises to always wear face coverings in public. At Park La Brea this includes all common areas, hallways, lobbies, mailrooms, laundry rooms and ELEVATORS.

Slow the Spread of COVID-19

This was a Beautiful Message from the City of Los Angeles
