H is paintings seamlessly integrate ancestral heritage\, pop culture and spi ritual themes—executed with a stunning technical precision that he has h oned over the last 25 years. The scale\, level of detail and trompe l’oe il within his works create an immersive and mesmerizing world that is trul y something to behold. \nComing from a long line of storytellers\, childho od dyslexia made continuing this family tradition challenging\, but simult aneously led him to explore various visual media. In painting\, he found a vehicle to continue his storytelling lineage. Growing up\, Chucho was gre atly influenced by his grandfather\, a woodworker: \n“My grandfather tau ght me that being alone never meant you had to be lonely. I believe alone- time is where the magic lives. Attention to detail and precision is part o f every painting I create.” – Chucho \nIndah Gallery is open Fridays\, Saturdays and Sundays from 12pm-5pm. \n*Gallery cannot be accessed from H wy 154\, only from N Refugio Rd.

Among the items we will examine: \nHas your nonprofit properly categorized its workers as salaried exempt or hourly nonexempt? You may be surprised at the rules.\nWhen you want to revise employee job d escriptions and roles\, how much can a role change before it becomes a new position? How should you be documenting it?\nIs your organization observi ng meals and rest breaks correctly with proper documentation?\nIf employee s are using their personal equipment (cell phone\, tablet\, computer\, hom e Internet\, home electricity) on behalf of the organization\, are you pro perly reimbursing them?\nDo your pay stubs comply with very specific Calif ornia law? (Don’t rely exclusively on your payroll service)\nAre you rou nding time for your hourly people?\nWhen you have a big event\, do you let your hourly people take time off at different times?\nHow are you managin g paid time off (PTO)\, vacation and sick time\, which tend to be more gen erous in the nonprofit world?\nThese and many other questions will be answ ered during this seminar targeted expressly for nonprofit organizations\, large and small. Come with your real-world questions\, as we will create a mple time for Q&A. \nFacilitated by: Jon Light\nAs the managing partner at LightGabler LLP\, Jon and his team consult with over 6\,000 companies acr oss California on their day-to-day employment law needs.

United States\, 1945–2021). Known for her temporary public installations and performances\, Sherk developed her ini tial landscape architectural intervention Portable Parks I–III (1970\, w ith Howard Levine) by temporarily transforming San Francisco urban “dead spaces” into lush\, living environments complete with sod\, palm trees\ , and live animals. Sherk expanded this approach as the founding director from 1974 to 1980 of Crossroads Community (the farm)\, also known simply a s The Farm\, an experimental community art and ecology center. Active unti l 1987\, The Farm reconnected parcels of land fragmented by freeway constr uction\, conceptualized new uses for overlooked urban landscapes\, and lai d the foundation for a global movement to reclaim urban spaces.\n\nBonnie Ora Sherk: Life Frames since 1970 traces Sherk’s sustained commitment to art and ecology in the public sphere and her influential role within the first generation of California Conceptual and performance artists\, as wel l as within the artist-run space movement of the era.

Gua temala\, 1985). Rooted in land-based methodologies and ancestral material knowledge\, the exhibition examines migration\, collective memory\, and th e relationship between human and more-than-human systems across time. Cent ral to the exhibition is the socially engaged work\, Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) (2020–ongoing)\, where Amézquita casts in s oil sourced throughout the United States the names of individuals who have lost their lives while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody between 2003 and today. \n\nOn November 1 as part of Día de Muert os (Day of the Dead) celebrations\, Amézquita will publicly update the wo rk with the names of those who have passed away in recent years. Each name is hand-cast using soil from the state where the person died\, combined w ith masa\, salt\, and rainwater—materials that carry cultural\, ancestra l\, and elemental resonance. This method of making is both devotional and political: a way of calling the body back into presence and refusing erasu re. Gemidos de la Tierra (Wailings of the Land/Soil) honors the humanity o f those whose lives have been reduced to statistics\, offering a stark con trast to the cold\, bureaucratic erasure that often accompanies death with in carceral systems. In this light\, the AD&A Museum shares this history f or collective witnessing as caretakers of their memory.\n\nAmézquita is 2 026 Artist in Residence of Ecological Practice at the Cheadle Center for B iodiversity and Ecological Restoration in partnership with the AD&A Museum at UC Santa Barbara. During her residency\, Amézquita will conduct field work on campus as well as at the Santa Cruz Island Reserve to learn about native ecosystems\, plant pollination\, and soil remediation. Amézquita ’s research will inform a newly commissioned work as part of this exhibi tion presentation at the AD&A Museum.\n\nJackie Amézquita: Gemidos de la Tierra is organized by the Art\, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara and is curated by Ana Briz\, AD&A Museum Assistant Director and Cu rator of Exhibitions. The exhibition is made possible thanks to the genero us support of the AD&A Museum Council.

Some of t he sandstone forms resistant walls and boulders\, while softer layers erod e more readily. As the mountains continue to rise and the creek cuts downw ard\, water gradually exploits the differences in the rock\, shaping the r ugged landscape we see today.\n\nThis is a landscape where geology is not simply something to look at—it is something happening around us.\nAnd th e best way to experience it is to enter the creek itself.\n\n**The Creek I s the Route**\nRather than simply following the established trail to San Y sidro Falls\, we’ll explore the canyon primarily by traveling in and alo ng San Ysidro Creek.\n\nWe’ll rock hop\, wade\, scramble\, climb around obstacles and route-find our way upstream. Where the creek becomes impract ical\, we’ll use the surrounding terrain or established trail to bypass it\, then return to the water whenever conditions allow.\n\nThe character of the canyon changes as we move upstream.\n\nRiparian vegetation follows the water\, with sycamores\, alder\, willows and other creekside plants cr eating a shaded corridor. Farther from the water\, the vegetation transiti ons toward oak woodland and chaparral. The creek provides habitat for a va riety of wildlife and is also part of the watershed historically used by S outhern California steelhead.\n\nAlong the way\, we’ll encounter pools\, cascades\, boulders\, sandstone formations and increasingly rugged sectio ns of canyon.\n\nThe landscape also carries evidence of its more powerful moments. The Santa Ynez Mountains are highly dynamic terrain\, and the Jan uary 2018 post-fire debris flows dramatically reshaped portions of San Ysi dro Creek\, transporting enormous quantities of sediment and boulders down stream.\n\nThe result is a canyon that continually changes through erosion \, flooding\, debris movement\, vegetation growth and regeneration.\n\nThe creek is much more than a stream flowing through the canyon.\n\nIt is one of the forces that continually creates the canyon.\n\n**Canyon & creek ex ploring videos from past events:**\nhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/nX2HiKl adK0\nhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/qwGhkTA_9pI\nhttps://www.youtube.com/ shorts/7tawddTNoDQ\nhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/Qcy8aX2ff7w\nhttps://ww w.youtube.com/watch?v=FwMleMWV65k&t=23s\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6 2NtBO0PnTM&t=198s\n\n**San Ysidro Falls**\nEventually\, the creek leads us to San Ysidro Falls\, a seasonal waterfall formed where the canyon become s increasingly rugged.\n\nBut the waterfall is only part of the experience .\n\nThe real journey is the changing relationship between water\, rock\, vegetation and wildlife as we move through the canyon. Every bend reveals a slightly different combination of geology\, water and life.\n\nAnd becau se we’re traveling through the creek rather than simply walking beside i t\, those changes are experienced at close range.\n\nThe canyon becomes th e trail.
The creek becomes the route.
The landscape becomes the experi ence.\n\n**Who Will Enjoy This Hike**\nThis outing is specifically designe d for people who enjoy wild\, off-trail exploration and are comfortable mo ving through natural terrain without the convenience of a continuous estab lished trail.\n\nTeammates should have solid experience with creek travel\ , rock hopping\, wading\, scrambling\, route finding and uneven terrain. S ome sections may require the use of both hands and feet\, careful climbing around obstacles\, or temporarily leaving the creek to find a better rout e.\n\nThis is not a hike for those looking simply to reach a waterfall by the easiest available path.\n\nThe pace will be exploratory rather than fo cused on covering distance quickly.\n\n**Understanding the Risks**\nCreek travel involves risks that are different from ordinary trail hiking.\n\nRo cks can be wet\, slippery\, loose or unstable. Water depth and flow can ch ange\, and obstacles that are easy to negotiate in one section may require a careful bypass in another.\n\nSan Ysidro Canyon is also a dynamic envir onment. Heavy rainfall can rapidly alter creek conditions\, move large amo unts of sediment and rock\, and destabilize terrain. The 2018 debris flows demonstrated just how powerful these processes can be in this watershed.\ n\nFor that reason\, recent weather and creek conditions will be important considerations in deciding whether the outing can proceed as planned.\n\n We’ll adapt the route to conditions encountered in the canyon. If a sect ion becomes unsuitable\, we’ll bypass it or turn around rather than forc e the route.\n\nAs with any off-trail outing\, each participant is respons ible for assessing their own abilities\, equipment and comfort level and m aking appropriate decisions throughout the hike.\n\n**Group Culture**\nThi s group is for people who enjoy exploring beautiful natural places while c ultivating health\, fitness\, curiosity\, and a deeper understanding of th e world around us.\n\nI believe every place has a story. Mountains\, fores ts\, rivers\, coastlines\, deserts and canyons are more than scenic destin ations—they are landscapes shaped by geology\, climate\, ecology\, evolu tion and human history.\n\nA beautiful landscape gives us more than someth ing to look at. It gives us something to wonder about.\n\nOur outings prov ide opportunities to move through diverse landscapes\, observe the natural world\, exchange ideas and discover the connections that shape each envir onment. Along the way\, we may talk about plants\, animals\, geology\, his tory\, science\, travel\, or simply whatever catches our attention.\n\nMea ningful experiences come not only from where we go\, but from how we exper ience each place. Curiosity\, preparation\, collaboration\, humility\, goo d judgment and respect for nature and fellow hikers are part of the journe y.\n\nIf this style of exploring resonates with you\, we welcome your inte rest in joining us.
