Master abstract expressionist Mark Rothko has just landed the biggest commission in the history of modern art, a series of murals for New York's famed Four Seasons Restaurant. In the two fascinating years that follow, Rothko works feverishly with his young assistant, Ken, in his studio on the Bowery. But when Ken gains the confidence to challenge him, Rothko faces the agonizing possibility that his crowning achievement could also become his undoing. Raw and provocative, RED is a searing portrait of an artist's ambition and vulnerability as he tries to create a definitive work for an extraordinary setting.

May 10-19
Codding Theater
Spreckels Performing Arts Center - Rohnert Park

This daffy send-up of 1930s Hollywood Monster movies follows the film closely, with many of its familiar scenes expanded for musical numbers. The characters are all there, Frederick, Igor, Inga, Frau Blucher, Elizabeth, Inspector Kemp, Harold the Hermit, and, of course, The Monster himself, still Puttin' on the Ritz.

Laughs abound as the young Frederick Frankenstein arrives in Transylvania intent upon claiming his inheritance, only to face his destiny - to follow in his grandfather's footsteps and create the next generation of The Monster.

Wouldn't you know it, things don't go the way he plans.

Performed by a live cast and orchestra and enhanced by Spreckels' Paradyne Projection System in the comfort of the Spreckels main auditorium.

A must see for the entire family!

Tickets: $ 26 full; $ 24 Senior; $ 22 Youth
For tickets, call the Spreckels Box Office at 707 588-3400. Box Office hours are Tuesday through Thursday, noon to 5pm and one hour before showtime.

HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO FOR LOVE? Neil LaBute’s bitterly funny, controversial exploration of morality and gender roles in modern America, The Shape of Things, tells the story of Evelyn, a sexy, aggressive artist, and Adam, a shy, insecure student, who become embroiled in an intense affair. Before long, it veers into the kind of dangerous, seductive territory that LaBute does best, as Adam, under Evelyn’s steady influence, goes to unimaginable lengths to improve his appearance and character.

The idea for NEW was sparked by an article about people who pay thousands of dollars to have their bodies cryonically preserved (stored in liquid nitrogen) after death, in the hope that future medical technology will restore them to life. It was a fascinating look into people’s beliefs about mortality and identity, their attitudes about their current lives, and their plans to live another.

There are rules to life, the first of which may be "one to a customer." But imagine if technology were to change that rule, restoring youth and re-defining death. In NEW, this comes to pass. It poses some challenges for our main characters.

NEW will run roughly 12 minutes. The short film will stand alone as a story, but also serve as proof-of-concept for a feature film I'm writing now. NEW is ambitious, with multiple locations and some elaborate special effects. We plan a 7-day shoot, on cinema-resolution video gear (Arri Alexa or RED camera). Actors and crew will be paid a small daily wage, as we push for pro-level production values on every front. Your contribution will also help pay for costumes, props, some set construction, original music, special effects, and post-production (edit, color correction and sound mix).

"In writing NEW, I feel I've managed to hit a sweet spot between the visionary science fiction that fired my imagination as a kid, and the character-driven storytelling that makes sense to me now," says writer/director John Harden. "I'm thrilled to be making this film and feel it will be unlike anything I've done before."

"If we exceed our minimum goal, additional funds will be put to good use: NEW demands we create an immersive “future” environment. Extra dollars will only help. Beyond that, there are real expenses involved in submitting a film on the festival circuit, the primary avenue where a short film finds its audience."

"If you can make a contribution of any size, thank you. If you’re unable to donate, you can still help by telling people about our project. Please forward or post a link to our page, to anyone you think may be interested in what we’re doing. Thank you."

May 1st Santa Rosa March and Rally

This year Mayday falls on Wednesday. Although a nation-wide general strike has been called, many people, especially in the immigrant community, must work. For that reason the gathering and rally at "Roseland Plaza" (Old Albertson’s lot) in Roseland will begin at 3:30 pm.

The march begins at 4:30 pm and will go to Juilliard Park, where there will be a theater performance, music, and informational tables.

The Occupy Wall Street movement has awakened the US population to the economic disparity in this nation, following the uprisings in North Africa, the Middle East and in Wisconsin. Occupy Santa Rosa (OSR) joins the May 1st Coalition this year to "Unite for Economic Justice and Immigrant Rights."

OSR also joins the national call for a general strike. The events on this International Workers Day, Tuesday, May 1st, will create opportunity for the diverse community of Sonoma County to unite in solidarity for a just society.

Seeing how much their wives enjoy watching male strippers during their "Girls' Night Out," unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, New York come up with a bold way to make some quick cash. In the process they find renewed self-esteem, the importance of friendship and the ability to have fun. As the guys work through their fears, self- consciousness, feelings of worthlessness and anxieties (over everything from being overweight to child custody, bigotry to being gay), they come to discover that not only are they stronger as a group, but that the strength they find in each other gives them the individual courage to face their demons and overcome them.

Want to meet your neighbors? Want to live in an awesome neighborhood and community? Want to make Santa Rosa an even better place to live?

Then plant sunflowers in front of where you work, play and live and watch your community grow!

A sense of community is one of the most important factors to our physical, psychological and social well-being. What better way to build community than spend our summer outside with our neighbors tending to our sunflowers?

A small (but mighty!) group of volunteers have started the Sunflowers for Santa Rosa project. Our goal is to bring neighbors and neighborhoods together by planting sunflowers in front of where we work, play and live.

We know we can't do it alone. We're going to need some volunteers to grow and distribute seeds and seedlings. We're going to need some volunteers to reach out to schools and get them involved by growing seedlings in their classrooms. We're going to need volunteers to contact businesses and nonprofits to get their organizations involved too. We're going to need some volunteers to help design flyers, put up posters, help with events, and round up some great prizes for our sunflower competitions!

Join us for our kick-off event on Saturday, April 27th from noon to 4pm for the Earth Day celebration at Court House Square! Bring your family, neighbors and co-workers to receive free sunflower seedlings and seeds!

We hope to find non-profits or businesses to team up with at the Human Race, the Rose Parade, Cinco de Mayo and other celebrations. And of course we need help with outreach. Do you know a service group that would like to help out? Maybe you have a contact at a Boys and Girls club or at a business in town. Any help you could be in spreading the word would be very much appreciated.

Now is the time to get in touch with me so that we can figure out how we can grow sunflowers throughout Santa Rosa. My email is jocohn@aol.com and my cell is 707-206-8489. I think that this will be a fun way to meet our neighbors and build community in Santa Rosa. I know that I can’t do it alone. It’s going to take a village. Give me a call so you can be part of the (sunny) village!!!

Wait there's more! Please LIKE us on Facebook at Sunflowers for Santa Rosa. (www.facebook.com/SunflowersForSantaRosa) ; And don't forget to ask your friends to Like us too!

Bring your family, neighbors and co-workers to receive free sunflower seedlings and seeds! We hope to find non-profits or businesses to team up with at the Human Race, the Rose Parade, Cinco de Mayo and other celebrations. And of course we need help with outreach. Do you know a service group that would like to help out? Maybe you have a contact at a Boys and Girls club or at a business in town. Any help you could be in spreading the word would be very much appreciated. Now is the time to get in touch with me so that we can figure out how we can grow sunflowers throughout Santa Rosa. My email is jocohn@aol.com and my cell is 707-206-8489. I think that this will be a fun way to meet our neighbors and build community in Santa Rosa. I know that I can’t do it alone. It’s going to take a village. Give me a call so you can be part of the (sunny) village!!! Wait there's more! Please LIKE us on Facebook at Sunflowers for Santa Rosa.

LandPaths' mission is to foster a love of the land in Sonoma County. LandPaths creates ways for people to experience the beauty, understand the value, and assist in healing the land in their local communities.

Experience the Beauty:
LandPaths' public outings visit open spaces, farms and parks-in-development throughout Sonoma County that have been protected by your Sonoma County Agrigultural Preservation & Open Space District. Diverse by design & offered at no charge or sliding scale donation, these outings create opportunities for all residents to enjoy the outdoors.

Understand the Value:
LandPaths' In Our Own Backyard (IooBY) program works with 17 schools, including many schools serving low-income students- often those least likely to experience the outdoors. Students explore and learn about the land through 4 theme-based field trips- Discovery, Watershed, Wildlife Habitat, culminating in a Stewardship project.

Heal the Land:
LandPaths' ongoing volunteer stewardship projects include: removing non-native plant species to improve natural wildlife habitat, repairing old logging and ranch roads to increase and improve steelhead spawning habitat, planting native plants, tending the community garden at Bayer Farm, and working with public agency partners to prepare newly protected properties for future public use.

Want to volunteer? We are currently looking for volunteers for our In Our Own Backyard schools program, stewardship projects, Trail Watch/Volunteer Patrols, web & database expertise, and more. If you or someone you know would be interested in volunteering, please contact us.

We look forward to seeing you soon in Sonoma County's Big Outside!

The 1,100-acre Taylor Mountain Regional Park and Open Space Preserve in southeast Santa Rosa is open to the public as of Saturday, February 23, 2013. Visitors no longer need permits to use the property, and the entrance on Kawana Terrace will be open daily from 8 a.m. to sunset.

A prominent Sonoma County landmark, Taylor Mountain offers sweeping views of Santa Rosa. From the park and preserve’s highest point of approximately 1,300 feet, visitors can see the Santa Rosa Plain, the Coast Range, Rincon and Bennett valleys, and the Mayacamas Mountains. The park also features oak forests, grasslands and wetlands and is home to grazing cattle and a variety of wildlife.

Since 2010, the public has had limited use of Taylor Mountain through an interim-access program provided by the District and coordinated by the nonprofit conservation group LandPaths. Those who attended a free orientation received a permit to use the property for hiking, biking and horseback riding. The Sonoma County Board of Supervisors, acting concurrently as directors of the Open Space District, transferred the title of the land to Regional Parks, and with this opening, permits are no longer needed.

The park’s interim entrance is on Kawana Terrace, off of Kawana Springs Road just east of Petaluma Hill Road. Sonoma County Regional Park rangers will be at the park throughout the opening weekend to acquaint visitors with the property. Parking will be free for Regional Park members and $ 7.00 for non-members. Well-behaved dogs on leash will be allowed on trails.

Regional Parks will begin construction of the park’s first phase along Petaluma Hill Road this summer. Work will include trails, a natural play course, picnic sites, restrooms and equestrian facilities, which will be accessed from a parking lot to be constructed south of Yolanda Avenue. The work is funded by a $ 750,000.00 state grant and completion is expected by summer of 2014. Additional trails and features will be added to the park as funding becomes available.

Become a Docent!

Laguna Docents lead school groups in the Learning Laguna program as well as leading community groups on field trips and hikes in the Laguna. Our docents work with school districts in Sonoma County to bring 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade students into the Laguna to learn about the wonders of this wetlands treasure in our own backyard.


Expert Training Program

Experts in biology, hydrology, natural history, cultural history and environmental education train docents in 10 lively sessions held on Mondays from March 11th to May 13th.Classes will be held at Great Blue Heron Hall at the Laguna Environmental Center. Each meeting includes presentations, discussion, and hands-on practice with the Learning Laguna activities, plus a fieldtrip to special Laguna locations. Classes generally run from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm. Docents receive a binder with reading and reference material that is closely tied with the theme of each classroom session. There is $145 fee to cover the cost of the materials. Payments can be arranged and limited partial scholarships are available.

After training, docents are asked to make a two-year, minimum 40 hour per year volunteer commitment to the Laguna Foundation. During that time, docents are expected to participate in elementary school classroom and field trips each school season, Fall and Spring. Because the program is focused around the classroom, and school year, it requires that docents be able to schedule during school hours (7:30-2:30), Tuesday through Friday. Once trained, some docents are interested in leading community hikes and additional training is provided for those education events. Other volunteer opportunities are also available.

We invite you to join us!

Docent training for the Learning Laguna program is offered once a year from March through May. The 2013 training class is now forming! The training application can be viewed here (http://www.lagunafoundation.org/pdfs/2013LagunaDocentApplication.pdf). The 2013 training schedule is also available for reference.

Orientation Events ...
are a great way to see if the training program is right for you and they serve as an unofficial "first day" of the training course. Two fun and informative events will be scheduled in February: Wednesday, February 20 and Thursday, February 28, 2013 from 6:00-7:30 PM at Great Blue Heron Hall, here at the Laguna Environmental Center (900 Sanford Road, Santa Rosa). Both meetings will be the same so choose the date that works best for your schedule.

If you would like to receive the Docent Brochure and the training application via US mail, please email the Education Program Director - Christine Fontaine / christine@lagunafoundation.org - with your name and address.

Once trained, some docents are interested in leading community hikes and additional training is provided for those education events. Other volunteer opportunities are also available. We invite you to join us! Docent training for the Learning Laguna program is offered once a year from March through May. The 2013 training class is now forming! The training application can be viewed here (http://www.lagunafoundation.org/pdfs/2013LagunaDocentApplication.pdf). The 2013 training schedule is also available for reference. Orientation Events ... are a great way to see if the training program is right for you and they serve as an unofficial "first day" of the training course. Two fun and informative events will be scheduled in February: Wednesday, February 20 and Thursday, February 28, 2013 from 6:00-7:30 PM at Great Blue Heron Hall, here at the Laguna Environmental Center (900 Sanford Road, Santa Rosa). Both meetings will be the same so choose the date that works best for your schedule. If you would like to receive the Docent Brochure and the training application via US mail, please email the Education Program Director - Christine Fontaine / christine@lagunafoundation.org - with your name and address. Be sure to put "Docent Information Request" in the subject line. Once the application is fully completed, please mail to: Laguna de Santa Rosa Foundation, Attn: Christine Fontaine 900 Sanford Rd Santa Rosa, CA 95401 We hope you will join us for this fun and rewarding experience!

The Art Center has moved to the Sebastopol Veterans Building, which doubles the size and allows significantly expanded programming – especially for children.

The new facility at the Veterans Building is inspiring the community and showcasing the arts in ways that we always dreamed would be possible.

The Phase 1 remodel of the 17,800 square foot building included upgrading the lighting and acoustics; adding air conditioning; and creating moveable gallery walls and new classrooms (for ceramics, painting, drawing, weaving and book arts.) Designed by Persinger Architects, the new art center has three galleries, a commercial kitchen, auditorium and stage, ample parking, rooms for community use, and outdoor space for sculpture. This is a dream come true!

We have $150,000 still to raise, to complete our construction Phases II & III, so if you'd like to make a donation, to help us complete the project we'd appreciate it.

This exhibtion features work that interprets reflection either literally as in an optical image or metaphorically as thought, meditation or human contemplation.
