Sept. 20, 2017, marks the Centennial of the incorporation of Culver City.

The centennial year begins in a year and a half, September 2016.

The Culver City Chamber of Commerce is publishing the definitive 100-year history of Culver City authored by Culver City Historian and Culver City Chamber member Julie Lugo Cerra.

This photographic journey of Culver City’s first 100 years will bring Culver City’s history to life with photos, in sepia tones, in black-and-white as well as color. The publication will be for tabletop display in a limited edition.

We will have a “Partner in Progress” section where you and Julie Lugo Cerra will highlight your story of your connection to Culver City in a photographic and editorial manner to be approved.

We are limiting these pages to only 30 in the publication. Each page will be $2995, which includes a picture of your choice, a submitted story about your company (your family’s involvement in Culver City) that you can write and submit for approval or have us write the factual article about your business (family) for your approval.

We are reserving these 30 pages on a first-come, first-served basis with a $1,000 deposit and payment in full by Oct. 1.
