Are you ready to Rock? Put on your pedal pushers, poodle skirts or Pendleton’s, and cruise on down to the Torrance Historical Society & Museum, and together, we’ll rock around the block at the FREE family-fun 17th Annual Rock Around the Block event!
On Thursday, July 20th, from 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM, the Sares Regis Group and the Torrance Historical Society are hosting a 1950s-style family summer event in celebration of Torrance’s All-America City Award — one of America’s original and most prestigious community recognition awards.
This event is open to the public and will be held in front of the Torrance Historical Society & Museum (1345 Post Avenue). Post Avenue will be blocked off from Cravens to Sartori, so guests can . . .
The Bartlett Senior (over 50) Center will also be hosting an Open House this same night — you can dine inside! The Torrance Woman’s Club will have their 1950s Club scrapbook available for viewing! Also, the Torrelle’s — a group of City employees who sing 50s and 60s songs in a cappella, will entertain guests while strolling through the crowd.
Alex Hattori, world-renowned yo-yo champ, will also be on stage amazing the crowd with his award winning tricks and will do a live demo for those who want to learn the skill of yo-yo-ing!
Guests will also have the opportunity to learn hands-on CPR from the Torrance Fire Dept. to the Bee Gee’s song of “Stayin’ Alive.”
