Thanks to the successful partnership between the Friends of Expo Center and the city of los angeles department of recreation and parks which operates Expo Center, this extraordinary recreational and community Center has become a vital resource for the underserved and economically disadvantaged residents of south los angeles. The Expo Center facility spans six acres adjacent to the la coliseum and it accommodates more than 800,000 participant visits annually, making it the largest public recreational and community Center in the region. The neighborhoods surrounding Expo Center suffer from high unemployment, overcrowded housing, chronic poverty, gangs and street violence. Expo Center is an oasis in this community, providing wide-ranging opportunities for recreation, education, and healthy lifestyles.
