The Hillcrest Community Ofrenda was envisioned by Rick Cervantes to expand upon the ofrenda he had built in his home for many years in honor of brother who was murdered in 2016. To make the ofrenda a project for the entire community to participate in, Rick decided to build the Hillcrest Community Ofrenda at the base of the Hillcrest Pride Flag starting in 2022 to provide a space for the entire Hillcrest and LGBTQ communities to honor their loved ones. The ofrenda will be built on Monday, Oct. 28 starting at 4 p.m., and will stay up 24 hours a day through 5 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 31. Community volunteers will take shifts watching over the ofrenda day and night. Community members are welcome to stop by anytime to view the ofrenda or place mementos.

New concert series pairs top sommeliers with the country’s greatest concertmasters for a unique “taste what you hear” experience. The first concert in the series pairs Philadelphia Orchestra Concertmaster David Kim with Sommelier Rafael Peterson. Mainly Mozart, home to the largest gathering of concertmasters and principal players in the United States through the highly acclaimed Mainly Mozart All-Star Orchestra, has announced a new chamber music series to launch in Fall 2024 at Fairbanks Ranch Country Club. Sponsored by Patricia & Christopher Weil, The Sommelier Series: The Concertmasters, includes three intimate concerts, Nov. 16, Jan 11, and Feb 8 featuring concertmasters from the Philadelphia Orchestra, Dallas Symphony and Los Angeles Philharmonic. Each concertmaster has been paired with leading sommeliers and wine curators who will choose each concert’s wine selections based on inspiration from the classical musical program. Chef Claudia Sandoval, “MasterChef” winner and judge, who is also the Culinary Director and Executive Producer for Mainly Mozart’s “Culinary Concerto” Gala, is coordinating the sommeliers and wineries for the new series. Each concert will begin with an hour-long wine and appetizer reception at 6pm followed by a discussion with the sommelier, hosted by Chef Sandoval, preceding an intermission-free concert at 7 p.m. Wine will be poured between musical selections, and sommeliers and musicians will illustrate the connection of the wine to the pieces being performed. The three-Saturday series opens November 16, in a concert featuring Philadelphia Orchestra Concertmaster David Kim, performing with his orchestral colleagues Burchard Chang, viola and Priscilla Lee, cello. The wines will be curated by Sommelier Rafael Peterson of H Mercer Wine and Spirits, former Dining Room Captain at Addison and Wine Director of Born and Raised. PROGRAM: E.
