Businesses bring Artesia's fireworks show back
On May 20, local businesses and individuals in and around Artesia took it upon themselves for Artesia to keep its proud tradition of having a fireworks show on the 4th of July. Artesia’s 4th of July event is the city’s biggest event of the year, and is attended by more than 2,500 people.
In April, Artesia’s City Council voted not to have a fireworks show this year because of the city’s financial troubles due in part by the economy and largely by the state’s raiding of city funds. Approximately 15 Artesia businesses and individuals, however, have picked up the tab where the City could not, donating approximately $11,000 for the fireworks show.
Among the businesses sponsoring the event are: Pioneer Cash and Carry; Ashoka the Great; Cerritos Auto Body; Farm Fresh; Highglow Corporation; Julio's Pizza; Lords Jewelers; Preston Surati Mart; Surati Farsan Mart; Jay Bharat Foods; Martin Bros Construction; and Standard Foods.
The City is inviting vendors to participate during the 4th of July celebration by selling food or novelty items. Vendor space is available on the day of the event from 10 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Applications are available at the Artesia Park office.
The fireworks show will begin at 9 p.m. at Artesia Park, 18750 Clarkdale Avenue.
For more information about the Independence Day celebration on July 4, please call Melissa Gobas at (562) 860-3361, or visit the city website at www.cityofartesia.us.
