(LOS ANGELES March 19, 2012) - Fortune cookies, a Cival War tent, L.A.'s first fire "truck, menus from long-ago restaurants, a wooden nickel, and the city's first grand hotel each have a story to tell about the Los Angeles region over 500 years of recorded history. On Sunday, April 29, 2012, the LA Heritage Alliance will host its Fourth Annual LA Heritage Day in partnership with El Pueblo Historical Monument, to share this history through tours, five museums, a scavenger hunt, childrens activities, presentations, giveaways, food and other activities.
"In an area sometimes perceived as having no 'real' history, LA Heritage Day is an opportunity for people to learn about and enjoy the fascinating people, places, and events that have shaped Southern California said Cindy Olnick, spokesperson for the Los Angeles Conservancy. "It's also a chance to learn about the incredible variety of local preservation groups, museums, libraries,and historical societies serving people today throughout Los Angeles County."
