  • Film Forum Coronado presents "UFOria" Wednesday, June 18 at 6 p.m. Film Forum Coronado Coronado Public Library 640 Orange Ave. Coronado, CA 92118 (619) 522-7390 Free Film and Discussion In the Winn Room Adults “UFOria” (1985. 93 min. PG.) - A giddy, whimsically witty ditty about the need to believe. Shelved by studio execs with cold feet, this snappy slice of contemporary Americana achieved cult status. A backwater grocery store clerk ( Cindy Williams ), a bogus faith healer ( Harry Dean Stanton ) and a hapless drifter ( Fred Ward ) wait on the arrival of an interplanetary Noah’s Ark. Coronado Public Library, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival, presents FILM FORUM CORONADO, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6 p.m. in the library's Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story.
  • Searching for a partner can be horrifically painful. But board games are always awesome. So what if you combined board games and finding a partner? Picture this: You sit down for a night of games. A gaming concierge walks you through several games over the course of the night. You play classics you love and discover brand new games you've never heard of, playing each with a different group of fun singles. All while in a great establishment with plenty of delicious options on tap. At the end of the night, you give your gaming concierge a list of the folks you met that you'd like to date and a list of those you met that you'd like to just hang out with as friends. If any two people put down the same name as each other in either column, then your gaming concierge will make sure you get each other's e-mail address and you can coordinate a time to hang out. Best case scenario: You find true love, discover some awesome board games, and make some new friends. Bad case scenario: You accomplish only one of those three things, which is still pretty great. Worst case scenario: There will be alcohol. Before you decide to buy tickets, a few basics we should cover: 1) This event is for men & women, ages 25-39. We also have events for gay men and queer women. And we're hoping to add events to serve even more people in the future! Head over to www.quirkevents.com/san-diego to see what else we have to offer. (If you scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, you'll be able to join our mailing list and get notified about future events. Plus, joining our mailing list gets you 50% off your first ticket purchase!) 2) To stay up-to-date on everything we have going on at Quirk Events, follow us on Instagram here! 3) Refunds are only available to those who cancel with more than 48 hours' notice, in order to make sure we have enough time to find a replacement for you and keep the event well-populated. (Exceptions will be made for emergency situations on a case-by-case basis). After that, we're blowing the money from your ticket sale on something awesome and nonrefundable. 4) If we get to 24 hours before the event and still haven't sold five tickets for each gender, we will cancel the event (and notify you). When we have run this event in the past, tickets have consistently sold very well, so we don't expect this to happen. But we thought we should cover this in case it came up. 5) How many games we have and which ones we use will be based in part on how many people attend, so we can't tell you for sure what we'll have right now. But the goal is for all of them to be fun, light, easy-to-learn games. Selection will include games from both the something-you-have-played-before category and the something-you-haven't-played-before category. The games are also chosen because they often tend to spark conversation and leave room for chatting with new people as you play. All games will be group games, meaning you'll get a chance to meet a handful of people with each new round.
  • Trump tells NATO members they need to cut off Russia energy purchases before he will take bigger steps to isolate Russia over its war in Ukraine.
  • Expand your gift for prose to writing fiction from your own life experiences. Craft epics tales of good fiction that slightly drift from “just the facts, ma’am” while getting feedback from other writers as well as your instructor. During each prompt in this three-hour event, participants will unveil layers of wordsmithing prowess by writing vignettes of memory based on life’s experiences, everlasting encounters (good and bad), people and places you vividly recall, and so forth. Transform each memoir into a respectfully reconstructed piece of fiction not confined by autobiographical ‘fact.’ Open to beginners as well as the more experienced writers.

  • Tired of giving soap or socks to honor the father(s) in your life? Make a personal card to honor your father(s) and gift it! In this workshop, we use tarot cards to explore fatherhood’s energy. We will celebrate our relationship to fathers and fatherhood through writing and a collage project, with room to explore challenging connections and what we’ve learned from them, including looking at connections forged with chosen family as well as blood family. The simple tarot journaling process we will use will help you discover and uncover your connection to fathering energy and how it can best nurture you. And if you wish, create personal tarot card art you can keep for yourself (your Inner Father) or a card for your actual father or person who fathered you. Bring an open heart, paper and pencil, and some photos of the father you are honoring (photos of you or your father(s)), and any images you feel express the gifts and lessons of that relationship. Please feel free to bring your own tarot deck(s) though your instructor will provide a variety of tarot images. Remember you can point the arrow of this inquiry towards your own father, or towards yourself in the role you play with your children or those you parent. All perspectives and experiences welcome; no prior writing or tarot experience necessary. Comes with a PDF for continuing your exploration on your own. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
