What do Laguna Beach’s City Council candidates think about the future of the arts?

On September 26, 2026, Laguna Beach Arts Alliance (LBAA) hosted a City Council Candidates Forum at the Forum Theater on the Festival of Arts grounds, focused on the candidates’ views on the arts and their role in our community.

The arts are at the heart of Laguna Beach’s identity, culture, and economy. Hear directly from the candidates and stay informed.

🎥 The full forum is now available to watch on the LBAA website and via link in bio.
