BUS TOUR 6/19: Echo Park meet up and ride to the beach

Out the Window Bus Ride + Video Watching + Picnic on the Pier
Sunday, June 19
Meetup at 12pm
Ride at 1pm

with Echo Park Film Center and students

Meet at EPFC at noon for snacks, then catch the 704 Metro Rapid Bus at Sunset & Alvarado at 1 pm. We’ll ride all the way to the beach (about an 80 minute journey)… spend an hour having a picnic and making a Super 8 film (the Santa Monica Pier is featured in one of the films being shown as part of OUT THE WINDOW), hop on the 704 and ride back home to Echo Park by about 5:30 pm.

Tips for bus riding:

There are usually two Transit TV screens in each bus — one towards
the front door, and one near the back.  Buses cost $1.50 per ride, so be sure
to bring some change with you! If you plan to take more than one bus line that day, you can purchase a Metro Day Pass for $6.00 aboard most buses or at a Metro ticket vending machine (such as at Union Stations or other train stations).
