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

A 5-Star Variety Bash of Arts, Laughter, and Imagination — for Kids of All Ages! Get ready, San Diego — the San Diego International Fringe Festival is bringing the magic straight to your neighborhood with Family Fringe Days, a free and fabulous celebration of creativity designed just for families. Think of it as the ultimate sampler platter of the arts: one moment you’re grooving with a live musician, the next you’re giggling at a clown’s antics, getting your face painted, or joining in on a Junkyard Jam Band! From mini-performances to hands-on art activities and interactive games, Family Fringe is all about fun, self-expression, and creating unforgettable memories with your kids. Why should families attend? Because play is powerful. Shared experiences like these nurture creativity, boost confidence, and build bonds that last long after the event ends. Whether your child is an aspiring artist or just curious to try something new, Family Fringe Days offer a safe, welcoming space to imagine, explore, and connect — all for free. Happening at library branches and community centers across San Diego from May 17–25. Great for kids, teens, and the young-at-heart! 100% FREE — because everyone deserves access to the arts.
