Nature Journal Studio
2nd Wednesdaysof the month, 6:30 – 8pm
Nature 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.

Free with Admission Register

About Melinda Nakagawa

The Downtown Market also spotlights a large variety of up-and-coming, unique cultural food businesses. This weekly spot may serve up the most diverse selection of ethnic foods in the county including momo, naan and curry, Japanese fermented misos, Eritrean dishes, crepes, El Salvadorean pupusas, traditional Italian cookies, fish and chips and long-ferment fresh breads.

Postpartum Support Group
2023-06-12 16:30 - 19:30 | Virtual, CA, United States
Postpartum Support International

NEW SUPPORT GROUP!

Postpartum Psychosis (PPP) is rare. It occurs in approximately 1 to 2 out of every 1,000 deliveries. After a PPP survivor’s symptoms have been stabilized, peer support can be an important tool for recovery. Because PPP occurs less often than other perinatal mood disorders, survivors can go their whole lives without meeting another PPP survivor. In response, PSI has created an online peer-to-peer support group for PPP survivors. This group is intended for those who are in recovery (no longer experiencing psychosis). Whether your PPP experience was relatively recent or years ago, you are welcome to attend our free, online peer-to-peer support group.

Cris has released over 30 albums and was recently honored, along with Judy Dlugacz of Olivia Records, with the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award. Her most recent release Harbor Street is a powerful collection of songs penned and recorded during the pandemic.
“I look forward to this show SO much. Singing and playing with Cris is heaven for me. We tell stories and laugh and make everything feel right again, the way old friends can do. Sharing music in person again will be a huge gift to all of us!” – Barbara
Barbara Higbie is a Grammy nominated multi-instrumentalist/singer-songwriter, the first woman signed to Windham Hill Records and co-founder of the super group Montreux. She has played with the likes of Santana, Bonnie Raitt, Will Ackerman, Laurie Lewis and Linda Tillery, on over 100 albums and has 18 releases of her own. Her most recent release is a trilogy of original instrumental albums, Resonance, Mumuration, and Presence.

It’s the culmination of months of work during the academic year and is a year-end celebration for our community embracing diversity and creative self-expression. The Ramayana is a timeless classic teaching the universal values of truth, duty, love and service to the greater good. As students work together to prepare for this ambitious show, they embody the values embedded in the Ramayana.”

Market Match
Market Match offers farmers’ market customers a dollar-for-dollar match up to $10 on their CalFresh (food stamp) cards at the Live Oak Market. If a customer swipes their CalFresh card for seven dollars, they get seven dollars in Market Match tokens for free. Swipe $10, you get $10. The goal of this project is to encourage CalFresh (EBT/SNAP) recipients to take advantage of fresh, locally-grown fruits and vegetables. By offering an incentive that lowers the price of fresh produce, we are helping shoppers stretch their food dollars while keeping their families healthy. SCCFM will be offering the Market Match program for the 2020 season. Locate the information booth and the market manager to redeem EBT coins and to participate in the Market Match Program.
