Once the home of Ray Charles and Ella Fitzgerald, Leimert Park was dubbed the “Black Greenwich Village” by filmmaker John Singleton. The World Stage and Kaos Network showcase jazz, hip-hop and poetry slams on the streets. During the monthly Leimert Art Walk, shop for art, fashion and jewelry. Visit the beloved Eso Won bookstore, which frequently hosts book signings. Leimert Park is brimming with eateries serving BBQ, spicy Jamaican cuisine and soul food, sure to tantalize your taste buds.
