By welcoming both digital photography and traditional film photography\, the exhibition celebrates the diverse techniques and artistic visions that make photography such a dynamic and expressive medium. Every image tells its own story\, encouraging visitors to pause\, reflect\, and appreciate the beauty found through each photographer’s unique perspective. \nOne of the highlights of the opening reception is the opportunity to meet the photographers behind the stunning works on display.

At Snapped: Art Bias Photography Open\, visitors will discover a wide variety of artistic styles\, techniques\, and subjects that demonstrate just how versatile photography can be.

DESCRIPTION:Unleash Your Artistic Potential at the Landscapes & Portraits Fall Series with Ray Mendieta\nCreativity has the power to inspire\, heal\, and connect people in meaningful ways. Whether you have been painting for years or are just beginning your artistic journey\, finding the right environment to grow your skills can make all the difference. This fall\, artists of every experience level are invited to explore new techniques\, refine their talents\, and express their creativity during the WORKSHOP: Landscapes & Portraits – Fall Series at Art Bias in San Carlos\, California. \nRunning from Monday\, August 10\, 2026\, through Monday\, October 5\, 2026\, this exciting nine-week workshop is designed for anyone who wants to strengthen their artistic abilities while learning from an experienced instructor. Led by accomplished artist Ray Mendieta\, the class provides expert instruction\, personalized coaching\, and a welcoming atmosphere where creativity can flourish. \nUnlike traditional art classes that focus on a single medium\, this workshop is a multi-medium class\, giving participants the freedom to work with the materials they enjoy most. Whether your passion lies in oil painting\, acrylics\, charcoal\, or pastels\, you are encouraged to bring your preferred medium and favorite tools. This flexible approach allows every student to develop their own artistic voice while receiving guidance tailored to their individual goals. \nOne of the greatest strengths of the Landscapes & Portraits Fall Series is its accessibility. Beginner\, intermediate\, and advanced artists are all welcome\, making it an ideal opportunity for anyone who wants to improve their skills. Beginners can build a strong artistic foundation while learning essential techniques\, intermediate artists can expand their knowledge and confidence\, and experienced creators can refine their style with professional coaching and constructive feedback. \nStudents also have the freedom to choose the subjects that inspire them most. Whether you are fascinated by breathtaking natural landscapes\, expressive portraits\, or another artistic challenge\, Ray Mendieta provides individualized instruction that helps you achieve your creative vision. Instead of following a rigid curriculum\, participants receive coaching based on the projects they are personally passionate about\, making every class engaging and rewarding. \nTo ensure a comfortable learning environment\, easels and tables are provided\, allowing students to focus on creating rather than worrying about equipment. Participants simply need to bring their preferred art supplies and tools\, making it easy to settle into each session and begin working immediately. \nThe workshop offers two convenient class schedules\, making it easier to fit creativity into your weekly routine.

Participants interested in drop-in sessions are encouraged to text Ray directly to arrange attendance and discuss any questions regarding art supplies or materials. \nBeyond technical instruction\, this workshop celebrates the importance of creativity in everyday life. Art provides an opportunity to slow down\, observe the world with fresh eyes\, and communicate emotions that words often cannot express. Whether painting peaceful landscapes or capturing the personality of a portrait\, students will gain not only artistic skills but also greater confidence in their creative abilities. \nRay Mendieta brings both experience and genuine passion to every class\, creating an encouraging environment where students feel comfortable experimenting\, learning\, and growing. His personalized coaching ensures that each participant receives guidance suited to their experience level\, making every session productive and inspiring. \nRay shares his heartfelt philosophy with prospective students: “I look forward to working with you and continuing the creativity and beauty that this world so desperately needs in these times.” His words perfectly capture the purpose of the workshop—not simply to teach artistic techniques\, but to encourage people to create beauty\, find inspiration\, and contribute something meaningful through their art. \nThe workshop takes place at Art Bias\, located at 1700 Industrial Road\, San Carlos\, CA 94070. Known for supporting artists and creative education\, Art Bias provides an inviting space where students can focus on learning\, collaborate with fellow artists\, and become part of a thriving creative community. \nIf you have been searching for the perfect opportunity to develop your artistic skills\, explore new mediums\, or reconnect with your passion for creating\, the Landscapes & Portraits Fall Series offers an outstanding experience.

DESCRIPTION:Children’s Redwood Theater: Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters Brings Storybook Magic to Filoli\nFamilies are invited to step into the redwoods at Filoli for a morning of storytelling\, laughter\, and theatrical adventure during Children’s Redwood Theater: Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters on August 22\, 2026\, from 11:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. \nSet among Filoli’s beautiful redwoods\, this special children’s theater experience brings stories to life in a unique outdoor setting. Presented as part of Children’s Redwood Theater\, the event gives young audiences an opportunity to enjoy live entertainment surrounded by nature. \nThe featured performance\, Rabbit Hole Theater’s “Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters\,” takes audiences on a playful adventure involving a famous author\, runaway storybook characters\, and a mission to bring everyone back together. \nA Storybook Adventure in the Redwoods\nImagine sitting beneath the trees while a theatrical story unfolds around you.

As Miss Emu searches for the characters she has created\, the audience gets to join the search and help solve the problem. \nThe performance is designed to encourage participation and keep young audiences engaged throughout its 45-minute presentation. Instead of simply watching a story unfold\, children can feel as though they are part of the adventure. \nTheater Meets Nature\nOne of the most distinctive aspects of Children’s Redwood Theater is its location. Rather than sitting inside a traditional theater\, families will head into Filoli’s redwoods for an outdoor performance surrounded by nature. \nThe forest setting adds a sense of adventure to the experience.

A cozy blanket on the forest floor or a folding chair can make the experience even more enjoyable for parents and children. \nA Fun Family Activity at Filoli\nThe performance is a wonderful opportunity for families looking for an entertaining and imaginative activity. Children can experience live theater while developing an appreciation for storytelling\, creativity\, and performance. \nFor parents and caregivers\, the event also provides a chance to enjoy Filoli’s beautiful surroundings while spending quality time with their children. \nThe 45-minute performance makes it a manageable activity for younger audiences\, while the playful storyline provides plenty of opportunities for laughter and imagination. \nBecause the performance takes place outdoors\, families should come prepared to enjoy a forest theater environment and bring whatever they need to remain comfortable during the show. \nPlan Your Visit\nEvent: Children’s Redwood Theater: Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters\nDate: August 22\, 2026\nTime: 11:00 a.m.–11:45 a.m.\nLocation: Filoli’s Redwoods\nPresented by: Rabbit Hole Theater\nAdmission: Free with General Admission\nReservations: Required\nMembers: Free admission; reservation required \nFamilies are encouraged to reserve their spots in advance because space for the performance is limited. \nCreate a Memorable Morning in the Forest\nChildren’s Redwood Theater offers something different from a traditional theater outing. It combines the imagination of live storytelling with the natural beauty of Filoli’s redwoods\, creating an atmosphere where children can laugh\, explore\, and become part of an unforgettable story. \nWith Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters\, young guests will be invited to help a famous author search for the characters who have mysteriously escaped from their storybooks. It is a playful adventure that encourages children to participate and let their imaginations run wild. \nBring your children\, pack a blanket or folding chair\, and prepare for a morning of theater and laughter beneath the trees.

SUMMARY:Let Your Talent Shine: Audition Workshop Helps Young Actors Build Confidence 2026
DESCRIPTION:Let Your Talent Shine: Audition Workshop Helps Young Actors Build Confidence\nFor young performers\, an audition can be both exciting and intimidating. Knowing how to make a strong first impression\, manage nervousness\, and confidently showcase your talents can make all the difference. This August\, aspiring actors ages 8 to 14 will have an opportunity to develop those skills during the Audition Workshop\, a fun and fast-paced theater experience designed to help young performers shine. \nTaking place on Monday\, August 24\, 2026\, from 4:00 to 6:30 p.m.\, the workshop will be held at Mahany Hall\, 1336 Arroyo Ave\, San Carlos. The cost is $65\, and registration for the program is handled directly through SCCT. \nWhether your child is preparing for a first-ever audition or already has experience performing on stage\, this workshop provides practical techniques\, professional guidance\, and an encouraging environment where young actors can grow. \nBuilding Confidence from the First Audition\nEvery great performance starts with a great audition. For young actors\, however\, walking into an audition room can sometimes feel overwhelming. Questions about what to say\, how to perform\, and what directors expect can create unnecessary pressure. \nThe Audition Workshop is designed to help students approach auditions with greater confidence. Participants will learn how to make a memorable first impression while discovering ways to calm those familiar pre-audition jitters. \nThrough interactive activities and expert coaching\, young performers will learn how to present their personalities naturally and demonstrate their abilities without losing the fun and excitement of theater. \nLearn Through Games\, Movement\, and Performance\nRather than relying solely on lectures or traditional instruction\, the workshop uses engaging theater activities to help students learn by doing. \nParticipants will take part in acting games\, vocal warm-ups\, cold reads\, and movement exercises designed to strengthen their performance skills. These activities can help young actors become more comfortable using their voices\, bodies\, expressions\, and imagination. \nCold reading exercises are particularly valuable because actors are often asked to perform material they have not seen before during auditions. Learning how to quickly understand a scene\, make choices\, and perform with confidence can give young actors an important advantage. \nThe workshop will also help students understand what directors are really looking for when they audition performers. \nPractical Tips Young Actors Can Use\nAuditioning is about more than simply memorizing lines. Young performers will receive practical advice they can apply to future auditions\, including guidance on selecting appropriate material and preparing before entering the audition room. \nStudents will also learn how to walk into an audition with confidence and make choices that allow their unique personalities to come through. \nThese skills can be useful whether a young actor is auditioning for a school production\, community theater performance\, musical\, or another stage opportunity. \nDeveloping Skills Beyond the Stage\nOne of the most valuable aspects of theater education is that its benefits extend far beyond acting. \nDuring the workshop\, students will have opportunities to strengthen important life skills such as public speaking\, creative thinking\, self-confidence\, and resilience. These abilities can help children communicate more effectively and feel more comfortable expressing themselves in a variety of situations. \nLearning how to handle an audition can also teach young performers how to respond to challenges\, accept feedback\, try again after disappointment\, and continue developing their abilities. \nAll of this takes place in a supportive environment where students can learn alongside other young people who share their interest in theater. \nBring a Song or Monologue\nStudents are welcome to come to the workshop with a prepared song or monologue that they would like to work on during class. While bringing prepared material can be helpful\, it is not required. \nThis flexibility makes the workshop accessible to both experienced young performers and children who may be newer to auditions and theater. \nWho Should Attend?\nThe workshop is ideal for young actors between 8 and 14 years old who want to become more confident and prepared when auditioning. \nSome participants may already dream of landing a leading role\, while others may simply want to become more comfortable performing in front of people. Either way\, the workshop offers practical tools that can help each student perform at their very best. \nParents can also feel confident knowing that the workshop emphasizes encouragement\, creativity\, and skill development rather than simply focusing on competition. \nEvent Details\nEvent: Audition Workshop for Ages 8–14\nDate: Monday\, August 24\, 2026\nTime: 4:00–6:30 p.m.\nLocation: Mahany Hall\, 1336 Arroyo Ave\, San Carlos\nCost: $65\nRegistration: Directly through SCCT \nIf your child loves theater\, enjoys performing\, or simply wants to become more confident in front of an audience\, this workshop is a great opportunity to learn\, grow\, and have fun. \nFrom calming audition nerves to mastering cold reads and making a strong first impression\, young performers will leave with practical skills they can use again and again. Most importantly\, they will gain confidence in their ability to walk into an audition room\, let their personalities shine\, and give their best performance. \nLet your child’s talent shine and give them the confidence to take center stage! \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:Learn to Sew & Refashion: Build Confidence and Transform Your Clothes in San Carlos
DESCRIPTION:Learn to Sew & Refashion: Build Confidence and Transform Your Clothes in San Carlos\nHave clothes in your closet that you love but never wear because they do not fit quite right? Instead of letting those pieces collect dust\, why not learn how to transform them yourself? On Wednesday\, August 26\, from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM PDT\, sewing enthusiasts and beginners can join the Learn to Sew & Refashion! [Aug] workshop at 641 Laurel Street\, San Carlos\, CA 94070. \nPriced at $45\, this hands-on class introduces participants to practical sewing and clothing alteration techniques that can help extend the life of their favorite garments. Whether you are completely new to sewing or simply want to become more comfortable making basic adjustments\, this workshop offers an approachable way to develop useful skills while getting creative. \nTurn Your Existing Clothes Into Something Better\nUpcycling and refashioning clothing is more than a creative hobby. It is a valuable life skill that can help you make better use of the clothes you already own. Instead of replacing a garment simply because it is too long\, too loose\, or does not fit properly\, learning basic alterations gives you the ability to make adjustments yourself. \nDuring this workshop\, participants will learn the fundamentals of altering everyday garments. The class will cover how to take up items such as pants\, dresses\, and skirts\, as well as how to take in simpler garments such as shirts and skirts. \nThese practical techniques can make a significant difference in the way your clothes fit and feel. Even small adjustments can turn an uncomfortable or oversized garment into something you will actually want to wear again. \nLearn Both Hand and Machine Sewing\nThe workshop will introduce participants to both hand sewing and machine sewing\, providing a well-rounded introduction to basic clothing alterations. \nHand sewing remains an important skill for making careful adjustments\, finishing details\, and handling situations where a sewing machine may not be practical. At the same time\, understanding how to use a sewing machine can make larger or repeated alterations much faster and more efficient. \nThe goal is not to turn participants into professional tailors overnight. Instead\, the class focuses on building practical knowledge and confidence that can be applied to everyday clothing projects. \nBy the end of the session\, you will have a better understanding of how garments are constructed and how you can make basic changes to improve their fit. \nBring a Project and Start Creating\nOne of the most exciting parts of this workshop is that you can bring your own project along. Rather than learning only through demonstrations\, you can apply the techniques directly to something from your own wardrobe. \nHave a pair of pants that needs shortening? A skirt that needs adjusting? A shirt that could fit better? Bring it with you and use the workshop as an opportunity to begin working on it. \nYou can also choose to bring your own sewing machine or use one of the machines provided at the workshop. This flexibility makes the class accessible whether you already own sewing equipment or are still deciding whether sewing is the right hobby for you. \nBuild Confidence Through Creativity\nLearning to alter your own clothing can be incredibly empowering. Instead of immediately giving away a garment that does not fit\, you can consider how it might be changed. A simple adjustment can give an old piece a new purpose and help you become more resourceful with your wardrobe. \nRefashioning also encourages creativity. Once you understand the basics\, you can begin experimenting with different fits\, lengths\, and styles. What starts as a simple alteration can eventually inspire more ambitious sewing and clothing projects. \nMost importantly\, the workshop is designed to help you walk away feeling more confident about making basic alterations.

DESCRIPTION:University of Hawai‘i Alumni Pau Hana in the Bay: Reconnect\, Celebrate\, and Build Community\nThe spirit of Hawai‘i is coming to the Bay Area this August as University of Hawai‘i alumni\, friends\, and members of the UH ʻohana gather for a special evening of food\, friendship\, and connection. The University of Hawai‘i Alumni Pau Hana in the Bay will take place on Thursday\, August 27\, 2026\, at The Alexandria at San Carlos. \nHosted by the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa\, this special gathering offers alumni an opportunity to reconnect with old friends\, meet fellow graduates\, make new connections\, and celebrate the lasting bonds created through the University of Hawai‘i community. \nWhether you attended UH Mānoa recently or graduated many years ago\, this pau hana is an opportunity to come together and celebrate the shared experiences\, memories\, and traditions that connect members of the UH ʻohana. \nAn Evening of Connection and Celebration\nPau hana\, a Hawaiian term commonly associated with gathering and socializing after work\, provides the perfect theme for this alumni event.

For newer graduates\, it can also be an excellent way to expand their professional and social network. \nSpecial University Guests\nAdding to the significance of the evening\, the University of Hawai‘i is pleased to welcome two special guests: University of Hawai‘i President Wendy Hensel and UH Mānoa Chancellor Vassilis Syrmos. \nTheir presence provides attendees with a unique opportunity to connect with university leadership while celebrating the continued growth and accomplishments of the UH community. \nHaving university leaders participate in the gathering makes the evening particularly meaningful for alumni who remain engaged with UH and interested in the university’s future. \nIt is also an opportunity to hear from and connect with representatives of the institution that played an important role in shaping the educational and personal journeys of so many alumni. \nEnjoy Delicious Food and Good Company\nNo pau hana would be complete without good food and great company. The $25 event ticket includes pupus\, giving guests the chance to enjoy delicious bites while mingling with fellow alumni and friends. \nThe relaxed setting makes it easy to catch up with former classmates\, introduce yourself to new people\, and share stories about life after the University of Hawai‘i. \nWhether you come with a group of friends or attend on your own\, the welcoming atmosphere is designed to encourage conversation and connection. You may arrive knowing only a few people and leave having made several new acquaintances. \nCelebrate the UH ʻOhana\nOne of the most meaningful aspects of the University of Hawai‘i Alumni Pau Hana in the Bay is its focus on community. The UH ʻohana extends well beyond the university campus\, bringing together alumni and friends wherever they may live. \nFor those now living and working in the Bay Area\, gatherings like this provide a way to maintain a connection to Hawai‘i and to the people and experiences associated with the University of Hawai‘i. \nIt is a chance to celebrate where you came from while building new relationships in the community where you are today. \nA Great Bay Area Networking Opportunity\nIn addition to reconnecting socially\, the event can provide a valuable opportunity for alumni to expand their personal and professional networks. \nThe Bay Area is home to people from many different industries and backgrounds\, and University of Hawai‘i alumni are part of that diverse community. Meeting fellow alumni can lead to new friendships\, professional connections\, collaborations\, or simply enjoyable conversations with people who share a common university experience. \nEven if networking isn’t your primary reason for attending\, the event provides a natural and relaxed environment for making connections. \nEvent Details\nUniversity of Hawai‘i Alumni Pau Hana in the Bay \nDate: Thursday\, August 27\, 2026\nTime: 6:00 PM–8:00 PM\nAdmission: $25\nTicket Includes: Pupus\nParking: Complimentary parking available \nLocation: The Alexandria at San Carlos\nAddress: 835 Industrial Road\, San Carlos\, United States \nGuests who have questions about the event can contact the organizers by email at events@uhfoundation.org. \nCome Join the UH ʻOhana\nWhether you’re looking forward to reconnecting with longtime friends\, meeting fellow University of Hawai‘i alumni\, learning more about the university’s future\, or simply enjoying a relaxing evening with good food and great company\, the University of Hawai‘i Alumni Pau Hana in the Bay is an event worth adding to your calendar. \nMark Thursday\, August 27\, 2026\, and make plans to join the UH ʻohana in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:San Carlos and the ’60s Counterculture Scene: Discover a Fascinating Chapter of Local History
DESCRIPTION:San Carlos and the ’60s Counterculture Scene: Discover a Fascinating Chapter of Local History\nStep back into the 1960s and discover the surprising role San Carlos played in the rise of the counterculture movement during a fascinating multimedia presentation led by Eric Dentler. On Thursday\, August 27\, 2026\, at 6:00 p.m.\, residents and history enthusiasts are invited to explore a remarkable chapter of local history at the San Carlos Adult Community Center. \nThe presentation\, “San Carlos and the ’60s Counterculture Scene\,” offers an entertaining and educational look at an era defined by music\, social change\, youth culture\, and a growing desire to challenge traditional ideas. Best of all\, the presentation is free\, making it an excellent opportunity for the community to learn more about San Carlos’s place in this extraordinary period of American history. \nDiscover San Carlos in the 1960s\nWhen people think about the counterculture movement of the 1960s\, their minds may immediately turn to famous destinations such as San Francisco\, Haight-Ashbury\, and other well-known centers of social and cultural change. \nHowever\, the story was much broader than a few famous neighborhoods. Communities throughout the Bay Area were influenced by the cultural shifts of the decade\, and San Carlos had its own surprising connection to the movement. \nEric Dentler’s multimedia presentation explores how the local community became part of the changing cultural landscape. Through stories\, images\, music\, and historical details\, the program offers an opportunity to see San Carlos from a completely different perspective. \nFrom Local Bands to Teen Dance Clubs\nMusic played a defining role in the culture of the 1960s\, and San Carlos was not left on the sidelines. The presentation explores legendary local bands and teen dance clubs\, revealing how young people experienced the changing musical and social environment of the time. \nBefore the age of streaming services\, social media\, and digital entertainment\, live music and community gathering places were essential parts of youth culture. Teen dance clubs provided spaces where young people could listen to emerging bands\, dance with friends\, and experience new forms of music and self-expression. \nThese local experiences were connected to the much larger cultural changes happening throughout the Bay Area and across the country. \nA Multimedia Journey Through an Unforgettable Era\nOne of the highlights of the program is its multimedia format\, which helps bring the 1960s to life. Rather than simply discussing historical events\, the presentation uses different forms of media to create a more immersive experience. \nThe combination of historical information\, music\, images\, and stories allows attendees to explore what life was like during a transformative decade. \nFor those who remember the 1960s\, the presentation may bring back memories of a very different time. For younger generations and newcomers to the subject\, it provides an opportunity to discover the people\, places\, and cultural forces that helped define the era. \nUnderstanding the Counterculture Movement\nThe 1960s counterculture movement represented a period of significant social and cultural transformation. Young people increasingly questioned established traditions and embraced new ideas surrounding music\, art\, fashion\, community\, and personal expression. \nThe Bay Area became particularly influential in these developments\, and San Carlos’s proximity to the region’s major cultural centers made its local story especially interesting. \nBy examining the community’s connections to music and youth culture\, the presentation provides a broader understanding of how major historical movements can influence everyday life in local communities. \nIt also demonstrates that history is not only made in famous cities and iconic locations. Sometimes\, important cultural stories can be found much closer to home. \nWhether You Remember the ’60s or Are Discovering Them\nThe presentation is designed for a wide audience. If you personally experienced the 1960s\, it can offer a nostalgic opportunity to revisit the music\, atmosphere\, and cultural changes of the era. \nIf you were born later\, the event offers a chance to learn about a fascinating period through the perspective of San Carlos and the surrounding Bay Area. \nEither way\, attendees are encouraged to come with an open mind and curiosity. By the end of the presentation\, you may have a new appreciation for the ways San Carlos contributed to the cultural history of the region. \nEvent Details\nEvent: San Carlos and the ’60s Counterculture Scene Presentation\nDate: Thursday\, August 27\, 2026\nTime: 6:00 p.m.\nLocation: San Carlos Adult Community Center\nAdmission: FREE\nCourse Code: 24872\nRegistration: www.cityofsancarlos.org/register \nThe San Carlos and the ’60s Counterculture Scene Presentation promises to be an engaging evening filled with music\, stories\, history\, and unexpected discoveries. \nWhether you lived through the decade or are simply curious about this remarkable chapter in San Carlos history\, this free presentation offers a unique opportunity to look back at a time when music\, youth culture\, and changing social attitudes helped shape an entire generation. \nCome discover the local stories behind an unforgettable era and see how San Carlos became part of the larger counterculture story of the 1960s. \n  \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.
