Celebrate July 4th with Los Angeles Maritime Institute (LAMI) and join us for a tall ship extravaganza. Our twin brigantines, Irving Johnson and Exy Johnson, will take you sailing for a great experience on the water!
Enjoy the waterfront's July 4th festivities from a classic tall ship. We have an exciting schedule planned.
First, we're offering a Cannon Battle experience.
Then, we're off to Long Beach for an amazing Fireworks Show, which will erupt up and down the coastline starting at 9:00 PM.
You have the option of purchasing a ticket to one event, or a ticket to both events at a discounted price. There are special prices for Seniors, Students and Children under 12 (see ticket prices below).
Cannon Battle 2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Fireworks Show 6:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.
Participation is limited, so don't delay - purchase your tickets now!
Minors under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Children must weigh at least 70 lbs.
You are welcome to bring food and non-alcoholic beverages aboard the ship, but please remember we will have a full ship, so kindly be as "compact" as possible with your carry-ons.
Allow sufficient time to find parking at Ports O'Call, wear soft soled shoes and bring a jacket - it can get pretty nippy at night!
This is a family-friendly event. All proceeds will go to our TopSail Youth Program.

Los Angeles Maritime Institute Makes GreatNonProfits' 2013 Top-Rated List! |

Los Angeles, CA (May 21, 2013) The Los Angeles Maritime Institute announced today that it has been honored with a prestigious 2013 Top-Rated Award by GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user reviews about nonprofit organizations.
"We are excited to be named a Top-Rated 2013 Nonprofit," says Martyn Clark, Executive Director of the Los Angeles Maritime Institute. "This year marks the 20th Anniversary of our TopSail Youth Program, so the timing of the award adds another accomplishment to our celebratory year."
The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that Los Angeles Maritime Institute received – reviews written by volunteers, donors and clients. People posted their personal experience with the nonprofit. For example, one person wrote, "I have been a volunteer for 20 years, and to see these kids grow up and become adults is life changing. When you see the looks on their faces when they see the ocean for the first time, it makes it worthwhile. It's hard to understand how these kids grow up living in areas where they are scared to take a walk around the block or even play outside. With LAMI, these kids learn that they can do anything. They learn that if you have a dream, go for it. Become a volunteer and see what I am talking about. It only takes a little bit of your time each month."
While the Top-Rated Awards run through the end of October, Los Angeles Maritime Institute was part of the inaugural group to qualify for the year.
"Savvy donors want to see the impact of their donations more than ever," said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits, "People with direct experience with Los Angeles Maritime Institute have voted that the organization is making a real difference."
Being on the Top-Rated list gives donors and volunteers more confidence that this is a credible organization. The reviews by volunteers, clients and other donors show the on-the-ground results of this nonprofit. This award is a form of recognition by the community. |
