Stone Soup Ethnic Music Faire
The City of Grover Beach and the
Chamber of Commerce host the Stone Soup Ethnic Music Faire each summer at the Ramona Garden Park. This two-day event celebrates diversity through food, crafts, and music from around the
world. Homemade craft and ethnic food booths fill Ramona Garden Park and spill out onto the street, along with the sounds of Latin, African, Australian, Scottish, jazz, and country-western music. Dancing in the streets is encouraged!
The event also features a 5K / 10K run or walk. The Annual "Dune Run Run" takes participants through city streets, the Beach Boardwalk, soft sand dunes, and hard-packed sand right along the scenic edge of the Pacific Ocean.
