Cindy Lee Berryhill is a California singer, songwriter, and co-founder of the New York Antifolk movement. She has released seven albums since her debut on Rhino Records in 1987. Her most recent The Adventurist was released on Omnivore in 2017. Van Dyke Parks says “Cindy Lee’s capacity as a lyricist is unique, her insights and raw ability to articulate the human dilemma, is peerless. She deserves a berth in any Hall of Fame, for the humanities she brings to the usual vanities of songwriting.” Pilgrim Church in Carlsbad is an open and affirming community within the United Church of Christ with a progressive theology, a commitment to spiritual growth, and a passion for social justice. They have been hosted San Diego Folk Heritage concerts in their beautiful sanctuary since 2016. All ticket sales for this event will go toward supporting their mission.

On March 1, 2023 Kiwanis Club of Imperial Beach and South Bay will be launching our Literacy program in partnership with Readability, the first voice-recognition reading improvement technology. The event will take place at the Imperial Beach Library from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. At the event, parents of eligible K-6 students will be able to learn about the program, and sign their child(ren) up, and receive access to twelve free months to the Readability application. This Artificial-Intelligence (AI) based application is designed to develop the child's critical thinking skills, foster love of reading, boost the child's confidence, build a stronger overall academic performance foundation, and create a strong foundation for success. We believe our project will also incite a culture of visiting libraries; and checking out and reading books. In conjunction with the access to the Readability application our Club will have quarterly in-person literacy events to ensure ongoing support and commitment to the children of our community.
