The AV Community Park Project wants YOUR INPUT! Please join us for this 3-part series to select and design new park elements. Each session is distinct. Free food provided!

The community already helped select and design a skatepark and restroom; now we'd like community input on selecting and designing additional park elements to include in grant applications.
Mendocino Theater Company presents the first play of its 50th Season, “Eureka Day”. Eureka Day School is a bastion of progressive ideals which come into question when a community crisis emerges. When both keeping the peace AND reaching a consensus becomes impossible, chaos breaks loose with hilarious and provocative results.
