As the sun dips to its lowest point in the sky, the Winter Solstice invites us into the stillness of the shortest day and the magic of the longest night. For thousands of years, cultures around the world have honored this turning point—celebrating the rebirth of the sun, the renewal of spirit, and the promise of returning light. On this powerful evening, we gather in community to reflect, release, and reconnect. Our drumming becomes a heartbeat—echoing the rhythm of the waves, reminding us that everything in nature moves together. Whether you come for spiritual grounding, creative expression, or simply to find joy, this circle welcomes you. This gathering offers a space of sacred ritual and meaningful connection—between you, the community, and the greater rhythms of the Earth. Join us for this luminous celebration on Saturday, December 20, from 4 to 5:30 p.m. at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, near the facilities building. Enjoy a spacious free parking lot, nearby facilities, and the warmth of community. Bring your drum, your spirit, and something comfortable to sit on. All levels and all traditions are welcome. Come experience the magic of the Solstice by the sea. Free will offerings accepted to benefit the work of ICEJ - the Interfaith Coalition for Earth Justice.

Call it fluid art, liquid art, or acrylic pouring, there’s nothing more satisfying than creating abstract masterpieces by letting pigment run amok. This form of abstract art uses acrylics with a runny consistency to create psychedelic paintings. There are endless creative possibilities thanks to different ways to combine acrylic paints and there’s something so satisfying about watching it spill across a surface.

On Saturday, January 24 from 10 a.m.-Noon, the Comic-Con Museum in Balboa Park is hosting a tokidoki Unicorno trading meetup that was initiated and organized by a kid collector, with support from museum staff and volunteers. The event is free to attend and takes place in the museum café and retail area. Kids bring their tokidoki Unicornos to trade (1-for-1, no money), with tables provided and a simple, thoughtful structure designed to keep things welcoming and low-pressure. There will also be tokidoki-themed arts and crafts activities for kids who prefer to create or observe. What makes this event unique is that it grew from a kid's idea into a real proposal, pitch meeting, hand-drawn poster, and now a public program at the Comic-Con Museum. It’s a small but meaningful example of youth creativity, community building, and how institutions can support kid-led initiatives. Event details: • What: tokidoki Unicorno Trading Meetup • When: Saturday, January 24, 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. • Where: Comic-Con Museum (café area), Balboa Park • Cost: Free (museum admission optional to visit the tokidoki exhibit) • Notes: Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult; volunteers and museum staff will be present • Instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/DTdZpRZFBnv/?img_index=1
