The party is open to all families with young children. Entrance and many activities are free and tickets for refreshments, other activities and a raffle will be available at the door. Little monsters and their parents are encouraged to come dressed in their Halloween costumes!
La Casita Verde is convenient to the 110 Freeway and adjacent to the Southwest Museum Gold Line Station. La Casita Verde Child Development Center, which offers full-day care and education, is a program of Mount Washington Preschool & Child Care Centers, a community-based, nonprofit organization in Northeast Los Angeles with a mission to create, manage and sustain developmentally appropriate, high quality, available, culturally-sensitive pre-school and childcare for families from all cultural, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds. The center is licensed under CA Licenses #192006521 and #198012751.
Housed in the historic Ziegler Estate, which was awarded the prestigious National Trust/HUD Secretary’s Award for Excellence in Historic Preservation in 2003 for its complete renovation, La Casita Verde is an ambitious and successful attempt to bring back the historic home and provide a top-of-the-line child-care facility for children and families from all cultural, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds from the underserved Highland Park area and surrounding communities. The restoration program brought together an energetic coalition of City departments, the Community Redevelopment Agency, and citizens’ groups. The renewed urban jewel was beautifully reborn into La Casita Verde, contributing to the rebirth of downtown Highland Park.
