Welcome to Issue 29 of the ACCA JOURNAL, our dedicated Rodeo Drive Edition celebrating the vibrant cultural landscape of Beverly Hills in 2026. In this special issue, we explore the "Arts First!" initiative through an exclusive conversation with Mayor Craig A. Corman, who shares his transformative vision for turning Rodeo Drive into a world-class outdoor art museum, alongside an intimate dialogue with Vice Mayor Mary N. Wells on modern elegance and the city's future.

We further delve into the intersection of heritage and surrealism, highlighting the Dior x Alex Chinneck collaboration and upcoming international highlights like Art Basel Paris. 

As we launch our first official ACCA JOURNAL WEEK, we invite you to experience premier activations across iconic venues, leading into the prestigious Rodeo Drive Concours d’Elegance. This edition honors the craftsmanship and human spirit keeping our culture moving forward
