When you think of Coachella, you probably picture the festival. But there's much more to know about the place it calls home.

Monday, February 17 from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m. Ages 4-6 welcome! Taught by artist & designer Christine Gilpin, your preschool age child will explore collaging, color theory, sewing, weaving and fiber arts in our studio. We will explore through sensory activities, crafts and stories while developing fine motor skills. Littles learn best by doing and playing. We practice handwork and workplay. We “play” with natural objects and materials. Each project is planned so that children build skills while satisfying their need to explore. Projects are safe, non-toxic, and full of creativity. It’s important that your child bring water in a refillable bottle and a snack (no candy or peanut products please) in case they are hungry or thirsty during this time. In addition, if your child is enrolled in a nearby camp elsewhere in Liberty Station in the afternoon, and their camp begins as ours ends, we are happy to walk your child to their next camp. If you’d like your camper to stay during the lunch hour from 12 p.m. - 1 p.m., for a fun, supervised space to eat their lunch (not provided) and a craft afterward, visit Lunch Supervision. • Military and sibling discounts. • Scholarships available. • If this class is full, join the Interest List. • If you would like to be notified of future offerings, join the Interest List to be notified when new dates or spaces are available.

An array of K-12 student performance groups from across the Vista Unified School District (VUSD) will illuminate the Vista Village Winterfest and tree lighting celebration this Sunday, December 8 from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. in front of the Vista Cinépolis Cinemas (25 Main St, 92083). The nine VUSD performance groups will perform choir, a string ensemble, Ballet Folklorico, ukuleles, steel drums, and more. “I am thrilled we have such a wide variety of ages from elementary through high school who want to perform at the Vista Village Winterfest. It is important that our students have opportunities to showcase their art in the community,” said Susan Stuber, VUSD Visual and Performing Arts Department Resource Teacher, who worked with the district’s performing arts directors to organize the Vista Village Winterfest music and dance showcase. Stuber added, “For those who attend the event, their heart will be filled with joy as they hear the sweet sounds of steel drums, choirs, instrumental ensembles, and ukuleles; as well as watch a variety of dance performances. There will even be an opportunity for everyone to sing a few carols during the actual tree lighting ceremony.” Alongside the diversity of performances, families are invited to enjoy a Christmas film at the Cinépolis Cinemas and play movie trivia to win Santa-themed prizes or shop at the makers market and craft fair organized by the VUSD Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) featuring arts and crafts, games, and gifts to purchase. The tree lighting celebration will take place at 6 p.m.

This free art event in San Diego is part of ICA’s commitment to reduce barriers to contemporary art in our community. 4 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. | All-Ages Art Making Join us at ICA San Diego North Campus for this month’s C You Saturday. Create a collage inspired by the materials and forms used by Artists in Residence, David Peña and Ethan Chan. Reflect your unique perspective on healing through layered textures and meaningful compositions of everyday objects. 4 p.m. – 5 p.m. | Performance by Ethan Chan In this durational performance piece by Ethan Chan, Ethan replicates the setting where his father spends his time when he’s unable to go to work. Ethan dresses up in his father’s daily at-home attire and traps himself in a space with nothing but his dad’s favorite food, a microwave, and a television, set to change channels every 10 seconds. In this space, the artist does not communicate with anyone or leave the room, and his only activities are sitting, eating, and watching TV. Thinking about the act of doomscrolling as a modern outlet for loneliness and boredom, a comparison can be drawn to the earlier act of channel-surfing. Constantly flicking through TV channels every few seconds for long periods of time results in both time passing and little to no entertainment or information being absorbed. As a kid, Ethan would sit with his dad (who identifies as a workaholic) on his days off at home while he channel-surfed. When Ethan once asked him why he did that for hours on end, he responded by saying, “what else am I going to do?”. 5 p.m. – 6 p.m. | Panel Discussion feat. David Peña and Guests Mapping Loss: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Grief and Healing Panel with David Peña, Mira Masukawa, and Selena Jong Join exhibiting artist David Peña for a special panel discussion on grief and general healing. Peña will be joined by Mira Masukawa of San Diego Grief Counseling and California Grief Therapy Center Inc., and Selena Jong, certified death doula. 6 p.m. – 7 p.m. | Music by Guest DJ Music selected by David Peña inspired by his exhibition. 4 p.m. – 7 p.m. | Food, Drinks and Socializing We hope to C you there!
