Local Music. Local Food. Local Cause.

The Making Memories Festival was a multicultural music and food festival benefiting Alzheimer's Los Angeles. The event showcased performances by local bands and featured food from LA's favorite food trucks. Informational booths focusing on brain health and other healthy lifestyle opportunities and resources were also part of the festivities. The Making Memories Festival was first held in 2021 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Alzheimer’s Los Angeles. The festival was so successful that it was established as an annual event through 2024.

In 2025, Alzheimer’s Los Angeles switched its signature awareness event to focus on current Alzheimer’s research. The new event, Advances in Alzheimer’s Research, is a series of one-day conferences designed to provide the latest information on Alzheimer’s and dementia care, treatment, and research. Learn more >
