Join us for a special workshop with Guest Artisan & Instructor Chelsea Lööw, visiting from Sweden and introducing a limited series of workshops with Craft Collective this year!

Made with organic beeswax, moisturizing butters, nourishing oils, and beautiful fragrances, these buttery bars leave your skin wonderfully scented and glowy. In this class, you will learn about the benefits and properties of different ingredients and then choose a custom combination to make two of your own massage bars with simple packaging for storage. Each bar is approximately 50 grams. Keep one and give the other as a gift! A note about ingredients and sensitivities: This workshop introduces a range of plant-based oils and butters, including sweet almond, apricot kernel, coconut, castor, jojoba, avocado, marula, and moringa oils as well as butters from shea and cupuaçu. Because individual allergies and sensitivities vary, please let us know about any known seed, nut, or botanical allergies when you register. We’ll review the ingredient list and help you choose the ones that best suit you! No experience necessary. Ages 15+ welcome. • Military, first responders and sibling discounts. • Scholarships available. • If this class is full or you would like to be notified of future offerings, join the Interest List.

Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), one of the country's leading baroque ensembles, closes out the calendar year with its beloved annual tradition, Handel's Messiah, presented in both English and Spanish. Messiah springs to life in both languages, this beloved oratorio continues to relish the holiday tradition. The run opens with a special performance marking the release of BCSD's El Mesías Spanish-language recording. Repertoire George Frideric Handel — Messiah • El Mesías, HWV 56 Soloists Estelí Gomez, soprano Jay Carter, countertenor Cecilia Duarte, mezzo-soprano Jacob Perry, tenor Enrico Lagasca, bass-baritone Fredy Bonilla, bass-baritone Originally conceived as a work for Easter, Messiah premiered on April 13, 1742, during Lent at the Music Hall on Fishamble Street in Dublin, Ireland. The performance was offered as a charity event for the relief of prisoners, in support of Mercer’s Hospital, and to aid the Charitable Infirmary. There is a long-standing myth that King George II was so touched by the “Hallelujah” chorus that he rose to his feet, with the crowd following suit. Audiences today routinely stand during the “Hallelujah” chorus, as a tip of the hat to this legend. Bach Collegium San Diego engages audiences with accessible, historically informed performances and educational programs featuring repertoire from the Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classical eras. The ensemble was founded in 2003 by Artistic Director Ruben Valenzuela to diversify the musical offerings of the San Diego community.
