Winter 2020

Toluca Lake’s creativity and communal spirit can bring enthusiasm and warmth to our holiday celebrations, whatever form they may take. So for this unprecedented season, we’ve compiled a local resource kit you can use regardless of how big or small your festivities turn out to be, whether you go out or stay home, and no matter how merry or meh you may feel this year. That includes cozy and comforting recipes from neighborhood restaurants, an expanded shopping and gift guide to help you show support for our business community as well as nonprofits that aid our vulnerable neighbors, and inspiring stories of residents working hard to make a difference year-round.
