Embark on a retail adventure at these shopping hot spots, where you’ll find unique treasures and experiences that will make for an unforgettable trip.

Accents Jewelry Design Workshops

At Accents Jewelry Design, owner Steven Hanna teaches jewelry-making workshops, where customers can create adornments using the “lost wax technique,” a method that involves carving molten wax drippings into miniature sculptures that are then sent to a foundry and cast into silver. Participants are encouraged to experiment and discover their potential.

Free People Fitness

As an outlet for customers to “wear in” their activewear, specialty women’s clothing brand Free People offers its Moving Together program, through which shoppers take part in health-and-wellness-oriented activities led by local fitness instructors. Many of the sessions, featuring yoga, Pilates or ballet, for example, take place in the Free People store; however, some take clients outdoors, even for surfing lessons under the temperate Santa Monica sun.
