DESCRIPTION:Nature Journal Studio\n2nd Wednesdaysof the month\,  6:30 – 8pm \nNature journaling can help us view the natural world with new perspectives\, learn about our surroundings\, and see the extraordinary in the ordinary.  During monthly Nature Journal Studio sessions at the Museum\, Melinda Nakagawa will guide you through a topic as we practice skills in a group setting and share our learning with others. We will develop observation skills and awareness of nature\, improve sketching skills\, and practice strategies to bring the 3-dimensional world onto the page. Rather than an art class\, nature journaling is about observation\, curiosity\, wonder\, and honing these abilities.\n\nFree with Admission Register\n\nSign-up for other Nature Journal Studio events.\n\n*Free for Members and Youth under 18 | $4 General | $2 Students and Seniors \n\nAbout Melinda Nakagawa\nMelinda Nakagawa is a biologist\, naturalist\, and educator with a passion and skill for connecting people to nature. She founded Spark in Nature to guide participants to cultivate a deeper relationship with the natural world\, slowing down to nature’s pace and seeing rather than just looking at the world.  With an approach that bridges nature\, art\, and heart\, she welcomes all people regardless of their skill level or background. Through her gentle guidance\, hundreds of participants have awakened their spark of curiosity\, sense of wonder\, and connection to the natural world.  Melinda has partnered with local institutions such as the world-renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium and Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History to lead educator trainings on nature journaling. She leads the Monterey Bay Nature Journal Club’s free online Sunday sessions.  She has an M.S. degree in Marine Science\, and has also worked as a naturalist guide\, floral designer\, and wildlife rehabilitator. For the past two decades Melinda has kept nature journals and continues to learn more from nature with each journal she fills.\n

SUMMARY:Santa Cruz Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew
DESCRIPTION:Santa Cruz Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew\nJuly and August 2023 \nJoin Santa Cruz Shakespeare in its beautiful outdoor theater under the trees in The Audrey Stanley Grove at DeLaveaga Park in Santa Cruz for its 2023 Summer Festival and its 10th anniversary of thrilling and imaginative theater. \nIn one of Shakespeare’s most raucous comedies\, The Taming of the Shrew\, characters struggle against the roles they have been prescribed by gender\, class\, or age. While the results of these struggles provide some of the most hilarious moments in the canon\, they also leave us with unsettling questions about the human cost of maintaining the status quo. Thorny\, funny and deeply human\, Kate and Petruchio are two of Shakespeare’s most fascinating characters. Out of place because of their honesty in a world of deception\, can these two broken people find happiness where they least expect it? \nJoin us as we explore Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew with humor and grace\, and discover the deeply complex characters at the story’s heart as they journey to find love. \nOther productions in Santa Cruz Shakespeare’s 2023 Summer Festival include Shakespeare’s King Lear\, and The Book of Will by Lauren Gunderson. Learn more at santacruzshakespeare.org. \nTickets on Sale May 1\, 2023. Don’t miss this memorable and delightful experience in one of Santa Cruz’s most majestic settings!

SUMMARY:The Hunchback Of Notre Dame
DESCRIPTION:The Hunchback Of Notre Dame\nThursdays – Saturdays\, 7:30pm\, July 6 – 8 and 14 – 15 and 20-22 and 27-29;   2pm Sunday\, July 9\, 16\, 23 & 30 \nA sweeping score and powerful story! Audiences will be swept away by the magic of this truly unforgettable musical. \nThe musical begins as the bells of Notre Dame sound through the famed cathedral in fifteenth-century Paris. A full choir sets the scene as the bell-ringer\, Quasimodo\, observes all of Paris reveling in the Feast of Fools. Convinced by his uncle and caretaker that he must stay hidden because of his physical appearance\, Quasimodo longs to experience life out in the world. Defying his uncle\, the archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo\, he escapes for the day and joins the boisterous crowd\, only to be treated cruelly by all but the compassionate and brave Romani dancer\, Esmeralda. Quasimodo isn’t the only one captivated by her free spirit though – Captain Phoebus\, fresh from the battlefront and looking to forget the horrors of war — is equally enthralled by Esmeralda. These three characters\, each outcasts in their own way\, are thrust into turmoil when Frollo embarks on a mission to destroy the Roma people. As Frollo’s anger rages higher and pushes events toward fiery consequences\, Quasimodo\, Esmeralda\, and Phoebus must shatter the confines society has trapped them in to save each other. A sweeping score and powerful story make “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” an instant classic.
