On July 4th 2006 a coalition of organizations will Salute Los Angeles as the "Creative Capital of the World©" and pay tribute to the City, its history, its culture and its people with a multicultural intergenerational celebration which includes a parade, historical reenactments, awards, vendors, booths, and much more.

Los Angeles hosts a diverse array of creative industries, covering music, television, film, dance, entertainment, publishing, art, fashion, theatres and many others. It is a place which is consistently on the cutting edge of unfettered entrepreneurship and imagination. It is a melting pot of cultural diversity rich with creative talent and unlimited potential. It is a world symbol of creativity and innovation providing an inspiration to the world. It is rich with history with a destiny yet to be determined. Los Angeles is truly a star unto itself and a guiding light for the world. It is the dream maker that keeps the dream alive. It is the Creative Capital of the World. It is a CAN DO city making dreams a reality. Two Time Oscar Nominee Carol Connors (pictured above) says "There's A Winner in You."

On July 4th 2006, the Fort Moore Memorial Committee will lead an effort to unite the communities, industries, media, government, arts, and others to celebrate Los Angeles Independence Day, its history and its people in a Salute to Los Angeles. A component of this tribute to Los Angeles history and cultural diversity will be a recognition that Los Angeles is the "Creative Capital of the World."

Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa says, "Dream with me."

The July 4th Salute to Los Angeles as the Creative Capital of the World and the invitation of Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa to dream with him has the potential to become the biggest and most important event on July 4^th in the City of Los Angeles. On 2006 July 4th this event of unity, cultural diversity and tribute will occur. It will be the biggest event in downtown Los Angeles on July 4th. No date, place or event could have more meaning or potential impact. We Salute Los Angeles in honor of its history, art, culture, and people.

It will be the the Fort Moore Memorial Committee's 15 Annual Independence Day celebration. This tribute to Los Angeles, its history and its people, seeks to draw from the many and diverse cultures that live in Los Angeles to provide an entertaining day of learning and excitement for the whole family.

In June 2003, then LA City Councilmember, 14th District, Antonio Villaraigosa said the following regarding the July 4th 2003 event:

"This 4^th of July I am proud to join the Fort Moore Memorial Committee in commemorating the 156^th Anniversary of the first Independence Day Celebration in Los Angeles. As we reflect on the world events of the past two years, we are reminded of how precious our liberty is both here in America and abroad."

Former Mayor James Hahn once said:

"Los Angeles is strong, optimistic and full of the kind of challenges that create opportunity. Indeed, Los Angeles is undisputedly the creative capital of the world, home to the world's most cutting-edge companies, people, and trends."
