Thx! =~=~=^=~=~=^=~=~=^=~=~=^=~=~=^=~=~= P.S. Do you have solar panels? PG&E wants to void your solar contract, cut your solar credit, and charge you a solar tax. (On top of the upcoming Income-Generated Fixed Charge!) They're trying to sneak it past the Legislature with Asm. Calderon's (a former dirty utility employee!) AB 942. This is all part of PG&E's attempt to scapegoat rooftop solar instead of admitting the real reason for skyrocketing bills: out-of-control utility spending on poles and wires with no accountability. Tell your CA lawmakers: Don’t break the solar contract! No solar tax! NO on AB 942!

Today, YPSO continues her legacy by providing advanced orchestral training to talented young musicians ages 11-21, from 5 Bay Area counties, fostering musical excellence, leadership, and community engagement. Under the direction of Maestro David Ramadanoff, YPSO performs a dynamic repertoire spanning classical masterworks to contemporary compositions, while also emphasizing mentorship, collaboration, and outreach. Many YPSO alumni go on to pursue careers in music, while others apply their discipline and creativity to fields such as engineering, medicine, and technology. Learn more at ypsomusic.org.

Art Changes Student Exhibition Opening Reception Join us for the opening reception of Art Changes, as the Alameda Education Foundation presents another incredible season of student artwork. This year’s theme, Our Earth: Embracing All Communities, is based on the collage paintings of Salma Arastu and the poetry of Maw Shein Win. Arastu’s vibrant work celebrates nature and the interdependence of all living creatures, while Win’s poetry reflects on belonging, self-knowledge, ancestry, and the natural world as both mysterious and clarifying. Student artwork has been lovingly contributed by Bay Farm School, Earhart Elementary, Love Elementary, Otis Elementary, Paden Elementary, Lincoln Middle School, Wood Middle School, Alameda High School, and Encinal Junior and Senior High School. Don’t miss this engaging and heartfelt exhibition that showcases the creativity and insight of young artists across our community.

New Cube Space exhibition, cultural activities happening this month and other resources Berkeley Civic Arts Newsletter The Civic Arts Program supports a culturally vibrant and diverse arts ecosystem within the City of Berkeley by: Funding grants to artists, arts organizations, and festivals. Providing opportunities for artists to create and display work in the public realm. Ensuring equitable access to high quality arts and culture for residents and visitors alike. New Cube Space Exhibition! In our 2025 exhibition series, curated by William Hernandez Luege, we present Joanna Keane Lopez (b. 1991, Albuquerque, NM) a Bay Area artist whose practice of working with adobe is inherited from her family as well as the enjarradoras and adoberas, women who specialize in the traditional craft of earthen architecture. In The Architectural Veil, a mashrabiy’ya, a traditional North African and Middle Eastern ornamental screen, is transformed into a sculpture, asking the viewer how materials containing cultural memory inhabit and shape our understanding of belonging and separation. This exhibit opens a space for reflection, urging us to consider how the built world, both industrial and handcrafted, is never a given but always the result of long processes of migration, adaptation, and transformation. Follow the artist on Instagram. The Architectural Veil is on display at the Cube Space through June 2025. The City of Berkeley’s Cube Space is a 200 sq. ft. contemporary art gallery located in the heart of downtown Berkeley at 2010 Addison Street. Unlike a traditional exhibition space, curated art displays are viewable 24/7 through surrounding store-front glass walls. Established in 2019, the Cube Space features a rotating series of three-month long exhibitions by emerging and mid-career Bay Area artists. Arts, Culture & Creativity Month is here! We’re excited to celebrate the importance of the arts in our community with Arts, Culture, & Creativity Month. Produced by CA for the Arts every April, it features a month of free events, resources, and advocacy opportunities across the state with the goal of engaging arts advocates and raising awareness of the impact of the arts within communities.
