Local

Hidden Local Gem - http://corita.org/visit Corita Kent (1918–1986) was an artist, educator, and advocate for social justice. At age 18 she entered the religious order Immaculate Heart of Mary, eventually teaching in and then heading up the art department at Immaculate Heart College. Her work evolved from figurative and religious to incorporating advertising images and slogans, popular song lyrics, biblical verses, and literature. Throughout the ‘60s, her work became increasingly political, urging viewers to consider poverty, racism, and injustice. In 1968 she left the order and moved to Boston. After 1970, her work evolved into a sparser, introspective style, influenced by living in a new environment, a secular life, and her battles with cancer. She remained active in social causes until her death in 1986. At the time of her death, she had created almost 800 serigraph editions, thousands of watercolors, and innumerable public and private commissions.

Cloistered Nuns who make the best pumpkin bread in town - a stones throw from Hollywood Blvd. Great for alone time for meditation, centering, pondering, or reflection. There's an open courtyard with the Stations of the Cross and a few benches for a nice rest stop, a little grassy garden area, a chapel, and a cute gift shop.

http://www.theeastsideagent.com/secret-stairs-beachwood-canyon-hollywoodland/ In 1923, the Crescent Sign Company erected the Hollywoodland sign to advertise its new Hollywoodland housing community in the hills above Hollywood. Concerned about walkability in the steep hillside community, the developers used granite from the nearby Bronson Quarry (now colloquially known as the Bat Cave), which was used to build much of the neighborhood (including the famed entrance gates), to construct staircases to make the community more accessible by foot. Over the years some new cement sections have been added, but that hasn’t detracted from the awesomeness of the Hollywoodland Staircases.

Total Steps: 249 Just south of the Hollywood Bowl, take Camrose Drive west, turn right on High Tower Drive and you’ll find a five-story tower. Right before the tower, take a left on Los Altos Place, go up 23 stairs and down a shady cacti- and fence-lined alley. At a T, take a left down 49 Broadview Terrace stairs with green railings to reach Yeager Place. We suggest turning right up 37 stairs to reach a plateau with huge cacti and Hollywood views. Continue up 52 stairs and find the tower’s entrance. Take the next right down a path. After a long descent past a series of colorful home fences, descend 18 steps and hang a right. Four steps down, take a left past more homes, navigating tiers that total 66 steps. Take a left in the Highland Camrose Park lot. Pass south through the park, past dozens of picnic tables, to reach Camrose. Take a right to return back to your starting point.
