Join local artist and Reiki Master, Pina Nast, for a one-of-a-kind painting class! Learn how to create beautiful, abstract paintings with alcohol inks. Alcohol inks are a vibrant, flowy, medium that allow you to paint from a place of intuition, and help you practice the art of letting go. The best part is that it’s impossible to mess up! We will start class with a brief meditation and intention setting to help us tune into the present moment. After learning how to work with the inks and the energy behind different colors, most of the class will be time for you to be creative and allow your intuition to lead the way. Whether you’re a seasoned artist, or someone who says: “I’m just not creative!”, this class is for you. All materials are included and you’ll have the opportunity to leave with multiple unique creations. All materials provided. Investment: $40 Limited slots only!

Join us for the opening of "Faith Ringgold: Full Circle–The Teachings and Her Legacy"! Faith Ringgold is a Professor Emerita of the Department of Visual Arts at UC San Diego. Spanning nearly five decades of artistic production, "Full Circle—The Teachings and Her Legacy" is a comprehensive examination of Faith Ringgold’s multidisciplinary practice. Born in Harlem in 1930, Ringgold emerged from the Black Arts Movement and became a pioneering voice in American art through her integration of autobiography, social and political activism, and techniques traditionally associated with women’s craft. The exhibition is framed conceptually through Ringgold’s relationship to UC San Diego, where she served as professor of visual arts from 1984 to 2002. This institutional affiliation provides a lens for understanding how her academic philosophy materialized throughout her practice and impacted not only those she mentored at UC San Diego, but generations of artists around the world.

In Chinese mythology, the horse has always stood as a powerful symbol of strength, freedom, and vitality. The “heavenly horse,” or Tianma (天馬), is said to soar effortlessly through the skies, connecting the realms of heaven and earth. One can imagine its mane streaming through the clouds embodying both grace and determination. Within the Chinese zodiac, those born under the sign of the horse inherit that same vivacious energy. They live with enthusiasm, drawing others in with their humor and charm. Impulsivity may at times lead them astray, but their optimism and resilience always guide them forward. Wherever they go, their warmth and vitality seem to stir the air itself, leaving behind a soft echo of hooves - and joy. This year, we’re introducing a theme for our fair: 萬馬齊心 人人歡樂 - When ten thousand horses move as one, everyone rejoices. It speaks to the harmony that arises when strength is united with purpose, when independent spirits gallop together towards a shared horizon. The horse, for all its freedom, also embodies the delicate balance of individuality and unity. Join us as we come together to welcome the year of the horse as one vibrant community!
