Acoustic Eidolon, featuring Joe Scott on double neck guitjo and Hannah Alkire on cello, are from Colorado, and they have graced stages throughout the United States, Europe, Australia, and Canada. With thirteen CDs and two DVDs to their credit, these masterful artists continue to captivate audiences throughout the world with their signature “new acoustic” sound and boundless possibilities in blending Celtic, Americana, world and flamenco musical influences, something that Dirty Linen Magazine praises as “a sumptuous musical feast.” They are described by the Swallow Hill Music Association as “an evening of brilliant instrumentality.” Georgia’s Good Life Magazine enthuses, “Acoustic Eidolon offers concert-goers a chance to absorb some of the most powerful and intriguing music on the scene today.” Their original sound is created by the mixing of their diverse musical backgrounds. Their unusual instrumentation includes the one-of-a-kind double neck guitjo, an instrument of Joe’s own design, that was praised by USA Today as a “beautiful harp-like sounding instrument … like nothing we’ve ever heard before.” The double-neck guitjo has fourteen strings, and Joe has developed his own style and technique, playing both necks simultaneously. Hannah studied with G. Magyar of the Hungarian String Quartet. She is recognized internationally for her stunning tone and emotional, impeccable playing and for taking the cello places it has never been before. What started as a musical journey between kindred spirits blossomed into their marriage in 2001. The result is a coupling of intricate and passionate music with genuine and engaging stories.

NOTE: Due to the forecasted rain, we are switching gears and transforming EGGstravaganza into a drive-through event. Hop on by with your basket between 10 a.m. and Noon at Poinsettia Park and we will pass out eggs and treats right through your car window, ensuring you stay dry! Our bunny can’t wait to meet you and make your day egg-stra special. Join us for the City of Carlsbad’s EGGstravaganza event on Saturday, March 30 at Poinsettia Community Park. The event features face-painting, crafts and an egg scramble where kids race to collect candy-filled eggs. No registration is required to attend. 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. No registration is needed to attend. To avoid lines during the event, $5 activity cards and $5 unlimited fun zone wrist bands can be purchased 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. For more information visit: carlsbadca.gov

Refresh your wardrobe with personalized creativity! In this workshop, you will design and sew your own quilt blocks and attach them to a pre-loved item of your choosing (we recommend you bring a tote bag or jacket*). You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind item you’ll be proud to use or wear. Intuitive quilting is the process of creating a quilt (or quilt block) using your intuition and sense of creativity. You’ll select fabric scraps in shapes and colors that you’re drawn to without too much planning. We’ll move through the process without limits, allowing for creativity to flow freely. This course is for beginners and seasoned quilters alike. If you’ve never used a sewing machine before, you’ll be guided on how to sew simple straight lines, gentle curves and how to appliqué. If you’ve sewn apparel or quilts using patterns before, you’ll be encouraged to put away the “rules” and sometimes rigid guidelines of traditional quilting to tap into a more freeform and intuitive way of quilting. No experience necessary. Ages 16+ welcome! *Please bring items made from woven material only (non-stretch). Sweatshirts and anything made from knit fabric are not suitable for use in this class. Tote bags are also available for purchase from San Diego Craft Collective.* For more information visit: sandiegocraft.org Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram
