Truth in Comedy, or TiC for short, is a storytelling, stand-up comedy, and art show where humanity is the muse. It's a unique experience that's raw and beautiful. Three individuals will tell a very personal story from their life, aka their truth, where they will be very open, honest, and vulnerable. Afterwards, a comedian will perform a set inspired by the story. At the end of the night, an artist will present a triptych they created inspired by the stories as well. Join us for this unique experience to see why no matter what we go through, we can always find something to smile or laugh about. Real. Funny. Storytellers: - TJ Tallie - Amber Liggon - Carolyne Ouya Comedians: - Byron Stamps - Camille Waters - Ellen Sugarman Artist: - Kelsey O Daniels For more information visit: truthincomedy.com Stay Connected on Social Media Instagram / Facebook

Sew Loka Presents “Definitely Denim” A Vintage Denim Jacket Art Show curated by Studio IX and sponsored by Cal Coast Credit Union happening on Saturday July 1, 2023 inside the Sew Loka Sewing Studio at 12 p.m. - 9 p.m. - 30+ local artists curated by Studio IX - Full Service Tostilocos & Michelaguas Bar @culturarimpaste - Live DJs @jayceeonedj @strangebouquets - Live Sewing @sewloka + friends - Live Performances @theinvisiblepanchos @killcrey @gene_flo @kackjing @platformcollection starting at 7:30pm “Denim is a huge part of my family and my story. My dad owned a denim factory in the early 1980s and it was everywhere when I was child. But the mass production of new denim is very wasteful, and it also hurts our planet. With this art show, we really want to encourage people to shop for recycled & vintage denim before buying something brand new, and we also want to inspire people to get creative with their clothing. Clothing is not disposable - clothing is art; and the people who create your clothing are artists.” - Claudia @sewloka “Definitely Denim” Participating Artists: - Anonymous - Ainara Calahorra, Muxu Creations @muxu.creations - Alejandro Morales Rivero @amrsdca - Amanda Kazemi @amandakazemiart - CJ Troxell @cjtroxellart - Dan Morales @danlgndary - Dientes Perdidos @dientesperdidos - Earl Dove @earldove - Evelyn Bernardi @evelynbernardi1 - Eye Gato @_eyegato_ - Frankyflowers @frankyflowers1 - Inocente @inocenteart - Izz A @_mad_mindzz_ - Jess Angelica @jessangelica - Joey Lenze @housewrecker - Jorge Gutierrez Garcia @jorgegutierrez226 - Jorge Mendoza @nestmurals - K.
