The City of Carlsbad’s popular EGGstravaganza Spring Festival returns. This annual spring event features Carlsbad’s largest egg hunt, an ongoing egg scramble where kids race to collect candy-filled eggs. Don't forget to bring your basket! Face-painting, crafts, cookie decorating, a fun zone, soak the bunny and more. Food and beverages are available for purchase. Activity cards and wristbands can be purchased in advance or at the event to enjoy the activities and fun zone. No registration is needed to attend this event. How the egg scramble works The egg scramble is ongoing from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. or until eggs run out. To keep the scramble fun for all ages, one field will be designated for children ages 6 and over who want to race for their eggs, and an identical one will be for children ages 5 and under. There is also a noncompetitive field for young children, children with special needs, and for families wanting to pose for a photo opportunity. An activity card is required to participate in the egg scramble. To avoid lines during the event, $8 activity cards and $8 unlimited inflatables wristbands can be purchased three weeks in advance at city community centers. The cards can be divided among multiple children for all the activities; however, wristbands are per person. Both can be purchased at these locations Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.: Calavera Hills Community Center, 2997 Glasgow Drive Stagecoach Community Center, 3420 Camino de los Coches Alga Norte Aquatics Center, 6565 Alicante Road Pine Avenue Community Center, 3209 Harding St. Event may modify or cancel due to inclement weather.

This series is for anyone navigating grief, loss, or life transitions, and seeking a gentle, creative, community-centered space to process - all types of grief are welcome! This three-week series offers a supportive space to gently explore grief through both guided group processing and hands-on creative practice. Each session is co-facilitated with a therapist and arts educator and integrates reflection, conversation, and craft as pathways toward healing, connection, and transformation. Together, we will move through different layers of grief — how it lives in the body, how it reshapes identity, and how it can evolve into meaning and growth. No prior art experience is needed; this is not about creating something “perfect,” but about engaging in a process that supports expression and integration. Session 1 (4/12): Grief in the Body — What Are You Holding? We’ll explore how grief is carried physically and emotionally, and create a pocket grief altar — a small, personal object to hold what feels present. Session 2 (4/19): Identity After Loss — Who Are You Now? This session focuses on the ways loss can reshape our sense of self. Through the practice of kintsugi (repairing with intention), we’ll reflect on brokenness, continuity, and reimagining identity. Session 3 (4/26): Transformation — Carrying It Forward We’ll explore post-traumatic growth, the evolution of love, and what it means to move forward while still honoring what has been lost. Participants will create a mosaic planter and plant something new — a living symbol of growth and continuation.
