      After several months of special events, book clubs, and community tie-ins, the City of Monrovia will conclude its One City, One Story program with a fun-filled afternoon on Saturday, March 28, from 1:00 to 3:00 pm at Station Square Park, 1629 South Myrtle Avenue.

      By Melanie Hooks

      Enjoy live performances, nature crafts, raffles, and family-friendly activities. Highlights from program events will also be shared.

      Free parking will be available at Station Square Park, the Metro lot, and Santa Fe Middle School.

      This year’s selection, The Bear by Andrew Krivak, is a quiet, powerful story about legacy, survival, and our relationship with the natural world. Its themes of nature, stewardship, and intergenerational wisdom reflect Monrovia’s foothill setting and its long tradition of celebrating creativity, local history, and community connection.
