Weekly Protest: Stand Up for Our Rights

This is a peaceful protest. We're gathering to say NO to the erosion of civil rights and human rights and the loss of critical government functions. NO to unconstitutional deportations. NO to the destruction of social security. NO to authoritarianism! Please stay on the sidewalk and avoid blocking entrances, exits, or traffic. Bring a sign, a friend, and your enthusiasm! And when you can, spend a little money at our local downtown businesses. We will keep up this joyful resistance until the rule of law is restored and the assault on the US Constitution ends. Join us! Organized by Indivisible Mendocino

Pomo Land is a dual exhibit coming to Willits Center for the Arts in July, focusing on Pomo art and life in northern California. Our north gallery will feature the artwork of Melody Williams and her extended family, and will include Pomo coil and twine basketry, beadwork, and quilt making with an emphasis on the Northern Pomo language. The south gallery will present an exhibit of photography by Craig Gardner, in collaboration with Pomo artist Misty Reyes. This exhibit of over 50 portraits has been created in response to the national crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW), featuring indigenous women from nearly every tribal group in the region, who are all survivors of violence or are personally connected
to someone who has been taken.

Pomo Land will open on Saturday July 5 from 6 to 8pm, with art, food and refreshments from 11am to 5pm on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays through Sunday August 3. We await your visit at Willits Center for the Arts, 71 E. Commercial St., in Willits. For more information, please email manager@willitscenterforthearts.org.

The 32nd annual Art in the Gardens at Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens will take place on Saturday, August 2 and Sunday, August 3. Join us in a celebration of creative expression, gorgeous gardens, wine tasting, music, and food. This year’s event will include more than 50 artists, dramatic summertime blooms, as well as entertainment by Circus Mecca and the Sonoma County Pomo Dancers. Enjoy performances by talented Mendo Coast musicians, including The Real Sarahs, Mama Grows Funk, Moon Rabbit, and The Runabout. Food, craft brews, and wine will be available for purchase.

While the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens is typically pet-friendly, the growing popularity and large crowds at Art in the Gardens make it unsuitable for pets, so we kindly ask that you leave them at home or arrange for doggy daycare—dogs are not allowed at this event, with the exception of service animals.

Celebrate all things Vinyl with KZYX! You are invited to bring a record (or a few) to share, spin, DJ Deck, turntables, spin-art for the kids, vinyl press and more! Spend the afternoon with us!

We will create marks and shadow puppets using supplied and found materials for the HAPPENING performance on Aug 9 and for inclusion on the community-made fabric redwood round. ALSO, check out the results of our SOIL CHROMATOGRAPHY experiments
