==Charles Fletcher Lummis==
Lummis Day was named for author, adventurer and early advocate of multiculturalism Charles Fletcher Lummis.
Lummis settled into Northeast Los Angeles in 1895, and built his home from Arroyo Seco river rock on the borders of the Highland Park and Montecito Heights communities. Celebrated as a city of Los Angeles and state of California Historical Monument, the Lummis Home is included on the National Register of Historic Places,〔http://www.nationalregisterofhistoricplaces.com/ca/Los+Angeles/state5.html〕 the List of California Historical Landmarks 〔http://ohp.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=21427〕 and is owned and maintained by the Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks. A few years later, the Southwest Museum of the American Indian opened to the public in nearby Mount Washington, created by Lummis as the first public museum in the city of Los Angeles and operated today by the Autry National Center.
