KPBS Race and Equity reporter Cristina Kim brings us two stories on evictions in San Diego. The pandemic inspired a slate of local, state and national eviction bans, and other protections for homeowners and renters to keep people housed. But those protections are going away, leaving renters especially vulnerable to eviction as the San Diego rental market heats up.

This workshop is canceled Join Meg Rosko of Nutmeg & Honeybee, as we learn to create a modern embroidery hoop. This class includes two options for creating a design. The first option is for students who feel comfortable enough to draw on a blank canvas and create their own design. The second allows students to receive a pre-drawn embroidery hoop so that they can focus on the stitches rather than the design. Topics covered: Satin stitches, french knots, turkey stitches, working with rope and yarn, and learning how to add beads. Students will choose their own color palette at the beginning of class and any materials that they use during the workshop will be included in their take-home kit. Students most likely will not have the chance to finish their embroidery during class, so Meg recommends asking as many questions as possible and taking videos of the stitches needed to complete at home. Modern embroidery is an art form that allows for a lot of mindful stitching and connecting with other attendees, so it’s the perfect class for anyone looking for a little creative break. Drop-off class for ages 8-12 & all skill levels SOCIALS: Facebook & Instagram
