Community Calendar

Got a kid with big energy? A flair for the dramatic? Perfect. Willits Community Theatre’s Gateway to the Stage Summer Camp starts June 29 with classes and a culminating production of Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical Jr., directed by Joni McLeod, with musical direction by Abigail Strock. Camp students will study song, dance and acting and then enjoy roles in the play. Enrollments are filling quickly, so don’t wait. The camp and performances take place at the Allen Garcia Auditorium at Willits High School June 29 to August 9. Head to wctperformingartscenter.org and click "Summer Camp" to grab your spot.

Two Santa Barbara artists, Dane Goodman and Marie Schoeff, are being featured at Partners Gallery from May 7 to June 8.

Between Ordinary - Marie Schoeff
Schoeff’s monoprints on paper combine relief and drypoint techniques to create singular prints. Layering archetypal spherical shapes with raw linear marks offers a spectrum of interpretations. With Schoeff’s minimal use of elements, color speaks first, setting an ethereal tone.
Commoners – Dane Goodman
Goodman’s work often uses common materials, such as cereal bags, soap, and children’s art supplies, along with low-tech processes. He sees these overlooked materials as having creative potential and relatability. This approach lends itself to an inherent democratic sensibility in what he makes.

There is a Second Saturday Meet the Artists May 9th from 5-7 pm.

Hours are Thursday - Monday, 11 am to 4 pm

Mendocino Dance Project is offering free weekly dance classes for people with Parkinson's, their family members, and caregivers. Classes offer healthy and fun ways to build strength, coordination, balance, and stability all while using creativity and imagery to inspire movement. This program is made possible in part by The Community Foundation of Mendocino County’s 2025 Fund for Healthy and Inclusive Communities Grant.

Celebrate five decades of Mendocino Land Trust’s remarkable conservation legacy at the Kelley House Museum. This exhibit reveals "behind-the-scenery" stories through archival photos and documents that show exactly how your favorite trails, wildlife habitats, and hidden beaches were acquired and continue to be preserved. From its humble roots as a grassroots movement to its role as a cornerstone of local stewardship, you'll see the passion that keeps our home wild and wonderful. Join us to honor the enduring commitment that has protected the beauty and natural history of Mendocino for the last fifty years.
Exhibit runs April 2nd 2026 – June 1st 2026
