Inglewood is a city in constant flux and replete with great potential. Since the time Native Americans would gather for water at the Centinela Springs, which is now modern-day Edward Vincent Jr. Park on Florence Ave., to its current and continuing process of transformation into a colossal residential and entertainment hub, Inglewood proves to be a city of rich, culturally diverse history and future legacy. Inglewood's most-distinguished destination is currently The Forum, which hosts the highest-profile concerts and shows, yet, since the integration of the LA Rams as our home team, we await the opening of the City of Champions Stadium, which is also surely to be a popular destination for visitors and residents alike. The energy is undeniably palpable throughout Inglewood - come explore!

An Inglewood landmark for almost 30 years, Vajra Books & Gifts is under relatively new management since Tsering Thondup, the kindest shopkeeper around, passed away last year. Please visit and support this local gem, which has an eclectic collection of used vinyl records, books, jewelry & miscellany/ephemera of all kinds. It's a paradise for artists and all willing to walk through this cabinet of curiosity.
