Myra Beautification Project

We are committed to leaving a positive impact on Silver Lake, Los Angeles, and of course Myra Ave., the street which hosted the Silver Lake Jubilee. We believe that we should leave things in better condition than when we left it and as part of this mission our team will be diligently cleaning up Myra Ave. this week. In addition to making sure Myra is swept up, we will be planting flowers and eco-friendly plants that are native to Southern California.

Won’t you help us in making Myra clean and beautiful for its residents? If you’re interested in joining our team for the clean up and planting this week, please email us at events@silverlakejubilee.com.

Weekend of Event Details

We’ve been getting lots of emails concerning details for this weekend. Here are a few things to consider that will help you enjoy the Jubilee:

  • Pets are allowed but must be on a leash. Please curb your pet during the event.
  • Photography is allowed but images may not be used for commercial distribution.
  • There is no designated parking for attendees. There is only off street parking. We highly recommend that attendees take Metro, bicycle, walk or carpool. A bike valet is available at the event.
  • There are three entrances to the event: El Cid off of Sunset, corner of Myra/Effie and corner of Myra/Hoover. At each entrance there are two main lines: General Admission for those who are buying tickets the day of the event and Will Call/Advance tickets for those on guests lists or have bought advance tickets.
  • If you bought a ticket through Eventbrite, you should get two emails: one is a receipt for your purchase and the other is a PDF of your ticket. Please PRINT THIS TICKET AT HOME. This will help us process everyone at the entrance quickly. You may enter the festival with a printed ticket or receipt of purchase.
  • The $5 admission fee is good for one day only.
  • We encourage patrons to bring their own reusable bags and cups. This is a Zero Waste event so we do not allow styrofoam cups, plastic bags or plastic bottled water.
  • The event runs from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. both days.
  • The location is Myra Ave. between Santa Monica Blvd. and runs right under the Sunset Blvd. bridge. If you are mapping this event, please use the address 1070 Myra Ave. Los Angeles 90029.

Neighborhood Haiku

I’m happy to share a handful of haiku submitted to the Neighborhood Haiku Project, celebrating Silver Lake and surrounding neighborhoods. Participants at the Silver Lake Jubilee will be able to submit their haiku at the festival, by visiting the Jubilee/Molossus Booth in the Literary Village. All entries will be eligible to win a gift certificate from community partner Skylight Books. The haiku will also appear on our forthcoming website, and select haiku will appear in public places, to celebrate our eclectic neighborhoods. Check these haiku out and submit your own below! And please, someone from East Hollywood, show the place some love!

- Maya

I am a women that’s not as eager to please as I once had been.  I speak how I speak because I choose too.  My ancestors inspire me, I think of them daily.  Silver Lake has been my home for many moons and LA is my birthplace, my birthrite.  It has guided me through my rite of passage and I plan on making it proud.  Hip hop is my middle name and the blues are written all over my back, thank God the gospel is in my eyes.

in golden water

from stone Buddha’s damp hem
love soars after rain

Look guy poops on street again

I live in East Hollywood, and walk to the Subway daily for my commute to work.  Everyday I have the joy of noticing new gang tags and excrement on my walk to and from my apartment.
