In honor of World Soil Day (Dec. 5), Nature Collective will host an all-inclusive habitat restoration event. Presented by Nature Collective and The Queer Sol Collective, San Diegans are invited to a day of re-establishing our relationship with nature and building community! Participants will work together to plant native plants at San Elijo Lagoon while restoring the symbiotic relationships between the individual and the land. This event will offer a talking circle, a place of safety, discovery, healing, and wellness, and a nature tour celebrating the planet’s inherent queerness. This 2SLGBTQ+-focused event is open to everyone; the queer community is especially encouraged to attend and come together, cultivate, and create a more sustainable, positive, and inclusive environment for all. Suggested donations of $5.00 to support a single seed growing into a thriving plant, $10.00 to help a young plant being cared for in a San Diego Garden where learning unfolds, or $25.00 to support the Queer Sol Collective’s Engaging Communities education program. It is a program designed to ignite the emotional connection between the self and the land, piecing together an understanding of what nature is: everything, including us. Registration is required; meet-up location is shared before the event but will take place around the San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve in coastal North County.

You are cordially invited to attend the 3rd Annual Christmas Concert at the Church of the Nativity on Sunday, December 8, 2024, at 1:30 p.m. in the church sanctuary. The Nativity Choir, an ensemble of San Diego’s finest vocalists will be joined by San Diego Baroque, a collaborative ensemble made up of some of the area's finest early music specialists with Dr. Alison Luedecke, Music Director. Admission is free. There will be a freewill offering with all proceeds going to support the Nativity Music Program. Our Christmas Concert illuminates Mary’s journey from the Annunciation through Jesus' birth. When drawing inspiration for this concert, Dr. Luedecke recalls “I look at the statue of Mary every time I play the organ at Nativity. One day I wondered- wouldn’t it be great to have Christmas program from Mary’s perspective?” It is intended to be a beautiful and reverent sacred music journey. A featured choral piece is a double choir setting of the Magnificat by Charles Theodore Pachelbel. The son of the renowned Johann Pachelbel, he changed his name from Carl Theodorus after moving to America. The premiere of this amazing piece took place in New York City during the time of Bach. Other choral music includes excerpts from Händel's Messiah, Ave Maria settings by Josquin Desprez and Franz Biebl, O magnum mysterium by Morton Lauridsen, Angelus ad Virginem, and John Rutter’s "Nativity Carol”. There will also be excerpts from Arcangelo Corelli: “Christmas” Concerto in g minor ‘Fatto per la Notte di Natale’ Op. 6, no. 8. Visit: https://nativitycatholic.weconnect.com/

You could compile an exhaustive list of genres that Mitchum Yacoub’s music might be categorized in, but the San Diego-based multi-instrumentalist’s sound can best be described with one word–originality. Mitchum layers strong, repetitive grooves with his flair for Afro-Latin percussion alongside vibrant horn lines to create undeniably electric music that doesn’t just move the body, but moves the soul. Mitchum’s diverse sensibilities are a perfect match for Divina Jasson’s eclectic approach to music, allowing the duo to create energetic and infectious music that sits at the intersections of Afrobeat and Cumbia. You can experience their unique sound for yourself when they perform at UC San Diego’s Park & Market on Saturday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. Tickets start at $25.
