SUMMARY:Connect\, Share\, and Grow at the New Parent Meet-Up in Foster City
DESCRIPTION:Connect\, Share\, and Grow at the New Parent Meet-Up in Foster City\nBecoming a new parent is one of life’s most rewarding experiences\, but it also comes with new challenges\, questions\, and adjustments. Whether you’re navigating sleepless nights\, celebrating exciting milestones\, or simply looking for a supportive community\, the New Parent Meet-Up in Foster City offers a welcoming space where parents can connect\, share experiences\, and build lasting friendships. Scheduled for Monday\, August 3\, 2026\, from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.\, this free community gathering invites families with babies under one year old to enjoy a relaxed morning of conversation\, learning\, and play at the library. \nThe transition into parenthood is exciting\, but it can also feel overwhelming at times. Many new parents discover that connecting with others who are experiencing similar joys and challenges provides encouragement\, reassurance\, and valuable advice. The New Parent Meet-Up creates exactly that kind of supportive environment by bringing together local families in a casual\, friendly setting where everyone is welcome. Whether this is your first child or you’ve recently expanded your family\, you’ll find an inclusive community ready to share stories\, experiences\, and helpful parenting resources. \nHeld on the first Monday of every month\, this recurring event has become an excellent opportunity for new parents to establish meaningful connections within the Foster City community. Rather than navigating the early months of parenthood alone\, participants can enjoy open conversations with others who understand the unique experiences of caring for a newborn. From feeding schedules and sleep routines to developmental milestones and local family resources\, every conversation offers an opportunity to learn something new while building confidence as a parent. \nWhile parents spend time chatting and getting to know one another\, babies have the opportunity to explore a carefully prepared play area filled with developmentally appropriate toys. These age-appropriate activities encourage sensory exploration\, movement\, and early social interaction in a safe and welcoming environment. Watching babies observe\, play\, and interact alongside other children often creates joyful moments for parents while supporting important stages of early childhood development. \nOne of the greatest benefits of the New Parent Meet-Up is its relaxed and informal atmosphere. There are no presentations\, lectures\, or structured lessons to follow. Instead\, the gathering focuses on creating authentic conversations where parents can ask questions\, exchange recommendations\, celebrate milestones\, and offer encouragement. Whether you’re looking for practical parenting tips or simply hoping to meet someone who understands what you’re going through\, this event provides an ideal setting for meaningful connections. \nThe library serves as the perfect location for this community-focused event. Known as a welcoming place for lifelong learning and family engagement\, the library offers a comfortable environment where parents and children can feel at ease. Beyond the meet-up itself\, families can also explore children’s books\, parenting resources\, educational materials\, and other programs designed to support early childhood learning and family development. A visit to the library often becomes more than just attending an event—it becomes an opportunity to discover valuable community resources that continue to benefit families long after the gathering ends. \nThe New Parent Meet-Up is especially valuable for families who are new to the area or looking to expand their social circle. Parenthood often changes daily routines\, making it more difficult to meet new people or maintain previous social connections. Events like this help bridge that gap by bringing together individuals with shared experiences and common interests. Many parents leave not only with helpful advice but also with new friendships that continue beyond the monthly gatherings. \nIn addition to fostering social connections\, the event promotes emotional well-being by reminding parents that they are not alone in their parenting journey. Sharing both successes and challenges with others who genuinely understand can reduce feelings of isolation while increasing confidence and encouragement. Sometimes\, simply hearing another parent say\, “I’ve experienced that too\,” can make a meaningful difference during the early months of raising a child. \nThe program is designed for adults aged 19 and older accompanied by preschool-aged children from birth to five years old\, with a special focus on families who have welcomed a new baby within the past year. Conducted in English\, the meet-up welcomes participants from all backgrounds who are interested in building community\, exchanging parenting experiences\, and supporting one another through this exciting stage of life. \nParents attending the event are encouraged to bring their babies ready for play while they enjoy meaningful conversations with fellow caregivers. There’s no pressure to participate in every discussion\, making it easy for first-time attendees to join at their own comfort level. Whether you stay for the entire hour or simply stop by to introduce yourself\, every visit offers opportunities to build relationships and gain valuable parenting insights. \nIf you’ve welcomed a new baby into your family during the past year and are searching for a supportive\, friendly community\, the New Parent Meet-Up is the perfect opportunity to connect with other local families. Join the gathering on Monday\, August 3\, 2026\, from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.\, for a morning of conversation\, encouragement\, and play. Share parenting experiences\, discover helpful community resources\, and watch your little one enjoy developmentally appropriate toys alongside other babies. Whether you’re looking for friendship\, advice\, or simply a welcoming place to spend the morning\, this monthly meet-up offers a wonderful way to strengthen your support network while creating meaningful memories with your growing family. \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:Dive into Bubble Bonanza: A Fun-Filled Hands-On Science Adventure at Hiller Aviation Museum
DESCRIPTION:Dive into Bubble Bonanza: A Fun-Filled Hands-On Science Adventure at Hiller Aviation Museum\nScience becomes even more exciting when learning feels like play\, and that’s exactly what visitors can expect at Bubble Bonanza at the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos. Taking place on August 5\, 2026\, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\, this engaging event invites families\, children\, and curious minds of all ages to discover the fascinating science behind one of nature’s simplest yet most captivating creations—bubbles. Through interactive outdoor stations and creative experiments\, Bubble Bonanza transforms everyday science into an unforgettable hands-on adventure filled with fun\, discovery\, and learning. \nLocated at 601 Skyway Road\, San Carlos\, the Hiller Aviation Museum is well known for inspiring curiosity through interactive exhibits and educational experiences. Bubble Bonanza continues that mission by encouraging visitors to explore the incredible relationship between water\, air\, and the science of surface tension. Instead of simply reading about scientific concepts\, guests become active participants\, experimenting with bubbles of every shape\, size\, and color while uncovering the principles that make them possible. \nAt the heart of Bubble Bonanza is the exciting opportunity to experience science through play. Visitors can move between multiple outdoor stations specifically designed to encourage exploration and creativity. Each station presents a unique way to investigate bubbles\, allowing participants to test different techniques\, compare bubble formations\, and observe how changes in shape and movement affect their behavior. Every activity offers a fun challenge while introducing important scientific concepts in an easy-to-understand and engaging way. \nOne of the event’s greatest attractions is its focus on the science of surface tension. Although bubbles may seem simple\, they demonstrate remarkable scientific principles that influence everything from engineering to nature. During Bubble Bonanza\, guests will discover how surface tension allows bubbles to form\, stretch\, and float gracefully through the air. Interactive demonstrations help explain why bubbles behave the way they do while giving visitors plenty of opportunities to experiment for themselves. \nChildren especially enjoy creating enormous bubbles\, colorful bubble streams\, and unusual bubble shapes using specially designed tools and equipment. Watching giant bubbles float effortlessly across the outdoor activity area creates moments of wonder that inspire curiosity and excitement. At the same time\, parents appreciate that every playful activity also introduces valuable STEM concepts that encourage observation\, critical thinking\, and problem-solving. Bubble Bonanza perfectly balances education and entertainment\, making learning feel effortless and enjoyable. \nThe event also encourages creativity by inviting participants to experiment with bubble sizes\, colors\, and designs. Visitors quickly discover that changing a wand’s shape or adjusting their technique can produce dramatically different results. These simple yet fascinating experiments help demonstrate scientific principles while allowing everyone to enjoy the artistic beauty of shimmering bubbles dancing through the sunlight. Every successful bubble becomes both a scientific discovery and a delightful visual experience. \nBeyond the featured bubble stations\, guests can continue their visit by exploring the many exhibits inside the Hiller Aviation Museum. The museum showcases the history of aviation\, remarkable aircraft\, interactive displays\, and engaging educational exhibits that inspire visitors of all ages. Combining Bubble Bonanza with the museum’s permanent attractions creates a full day of exploration where science\, engineering\, and innovation come together in exciting ways. \nFamilies looking for meaningful summer activities will find Bubble Bonanza to be an excellent destination. The event encourages parents and children to learn side by side while sharing memorable experiences together. Instead of watching demonstrations from a distance\, every participant becomes directly involved in the experiments\, making the lessons more memorable and enjoyable. These shared moments often spark conversations about science that continue long after the visit has ended. \nAnother reason Bubble Bonanza stands out is its welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re visiting with toddlers\, school-aged children\, grandparents\, or friends\, everyone can participate at their own pace. The outdoor setup provides plenty of space for exploration while creating a lively environment where curiosity is celebrated. Museum staff and activity leaders help guide participants through each station\, ensuring that every guest feels encouraged to experiment\, ask questions\, and have fun. \nOne of the best aspects of this special event is that Bubble Bonanza is included with regular museum admission\, making it an exceptional value for families seeking an entertaining and educational outing. Guests receive access to both the exciting bubble activities and the museum’s fascinating exhibits\, allowing them to enjoy hours of interactive learning without purchasing a separate event ticket. It’s an excellent opportunity to maximize your museum visit while experiencing a unique seasonal program that only adds to the excitement. \nRunning from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Wednesday\, August 5\, 2026\, Bubble Bonanza offers the perfect morning adventure before exploring everything else the Hiller Aviation Museum has to offer. Conveniently located at 601 Skyway Road\, San Carlos\, the museum provides an inspiring destination where science comes alive through hands-on experiences designed to educate\, entertain\, and inspire. \nIf you’re searching for an activity that combines creativity\, learning\, and family fun\, Bubble Bonanza is an event you won’t want to miss.

This inclusive environment promotes curiosity\, respect\, and appreciation for different cultures from an early age. \nBeyond language development\, storytime supports many essential early childhood skills.

SUMMARY:Toddler Time in San Carlos: A Fun and Engaging Community Playdate for Little Learners
DESCRIPTION:Toddler Time in San Carlos: A Fun and Engaging Community Playdate for Little Learners\nFinding meaningful activities for toddlers can be a wonderful way to support their early development while also giving parents and caregivers an opportunity to connect with others in the community. This August\, families in San Carlos are invited to enjoy Toddler Time\, a relaxed and welcoming program designed especially for young children and their grown-ups. \nTaking place on Monday\, August 10\, 2026\, from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM\, Toddler Time provides a comfortable environment where toddlers can explore\, play\, and interact with other children. The program is held in the Children’s Room and is designed for children between 18 months and 3 years old. \nA Welcoming Community Playdate for Toddlers\nToddler Time is an excellent opportunity for families looking for a community playdate where young children can enjoy age-appropriate activities in a safe and welcoming setting. Rather than following a strict schedule or structured lesson\, the program offers an unstructured free-play environment that allows children to explore at their own pace. \nDuring the hour\, toddlers and their caregivers can discover a variety of sensory and building activities. These types of play can encourage children to use their imagination\, develop coordination\, experiment with different textures and materials\, and practice problem-solving skills. \nFor toddlers\, play is more than simply a way to have fun. It is an important part of early learning. Activities that involve building\, touching\, moving\, and exploring can help children develop important physical\, social\, emotional\, and cognitive skills. \nEncouraging Early Learning Through Play\nChildren between 18 months and 3 years old are at an exciting stage of development. They are becoming increasingly curious about the world around them and are beginning to develop greater independence. Toddler Time gives them the freedom to explore while still having their caregivers nearby for support and encouragement. \nFree play can also help young children practice social skills. As toddlers play alongside one another\, they may begin learning how to share space\, communicate their needs\, observe other children\, and participate in simple social interactions. \nThe program does not require children to complete a particular project or follow a specific set of instructions. Instead\, they can explore the available activities according to their interests and comfort level. This flexible approach makes Toddler Time accessible to children with different personalities\, abilities\, and levels of development. \nA Chance for Caregivers to Connect\nToddler Time is not only beneficial for children. It also provides caregivers with an opportunity to meet other parents and adults who are caring for young children. \nParenting and caregiving can sometimes feel isolating\, particularly when families are adjusting to the routines and challenges that come with raising a toddler. A community playdate can create a valuable opportunity to have casual conversations\, exchange experiences\, and build connections with people who understand the joys and challenges of caring for young children. \nWhile children explore and play\, caregivers can connect with one another in a friendly community environment. Library staff will also be available to help families discover useful library resources and information that may support their parenting and early-learning journey. \nDiscover Helpful Library Resources\nOne of the benefits of attending a library program such as Toddler Time is the opportunity to discover resources beyond the event itself. Library staff can connect families with materials\, services\, and programs that may be helpful for young children and their caregivers. \nFamilies may find books and other resources that encourage early literacy\, learning\, creativity\, and family engagement. Parents and caregivers can also learn about other community opportunities that may be appropriate for preschool-aged children. \nBecause Toddler Time is part of the library’s Early Learning and Parenting\, Caregiving programming\, it offers families more than an hour of play. It can also serve as a starting point for discovering additional ways to support a child’s development. \nEvent Details\nFamilies interested in attending should mark their calendars for Monday\, August 10\, 2026. The program runs from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM in San Carlos\, with activities taking place in the Children’s Room. \nThe program is intended specifically for children ages 18 months to 3 years and is suitable for preschoolers ages 0–5. The event is conducted in English. \nAdults must be accompanied by a child\, so caregivers should plan to attend together with their toddler. Since this is a drop-in free-play program\, families can enjoy a relaxed experience without the pressure of a formal class structure. \nMake Toddler Time Part of Your Family’s Routine\nFor families searching for a simple\, engaging\, and community-centered activity\, Toddler Time offers a wonderful opportunity to combine play\, early learning\, and social connection. Young children can explore sensory and building activities\, interact with other toddlers\, and enjoy quality time with their caregivers. \nAt the same time\, parents and caregivers can meet others\, connect with library staff\, and discover resources designed to support young children’s growth and learning. \nIf you are looking for a positive way to spend part of your Monday morning with your little one\, consider joining Toddler Time in San Carlos on August 10\, 2026\, from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM. It is a welcoming opportunity for toddlers to play\, explore\, learn\, and make new connections while their grown-ups become part of a supportive community. \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:Unleash Your Artistic Potential at the Landscapes & Portraits Fall Series with Ray Mendieta
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. Class #1 meets every Monday from 10:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.\, while Class #2 is held Mondays from 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Both sessions run from August 10 through October 5\, covering the complete nine-week Fall Series. Students can select the schedule that best fits their availability while enjoying the same high-quality instruction and supportive atmosphere. \nEnrollment for the complete nine-week series is $350\, representing excellent value for artists seeking consistent instruction and personal growth. The extended format allows participants to steadily improve their skills\, receive ongoing feedback\, and complete meaningful artistic projects throughout the course. \nFor those who would like to experience the class before committing to the full series\, the workshop also offers flexible attendance options. Drop-ins are welcome for anyone interested in trying the class or making up a missed session. Walk-ins are accepted for $40 per class\, providing a convenient way to experience Ray Mendieta’s teaching style without enrolling in the complete program. 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.

SUMMARY:Empower Your Future with Free Computer Skills Classes at San Carlos Library
DESCRIPTION:Empower Your Future with Free Computer Skills Classes at San Carlos Library\nTechnology has become an essential part of everyday life\, from communicating with family and friends to applying for jobs\, managing personal information\, accessing online services\, and staying connected with the community. For adults who want to become more comfortable using a computer\, the Free Computer Skills Classes | TechExchange program at the San Carlos Library offers an excellent opportunity to build valuable technology skills in a supportive learning environment. \nTaking place in San Carlos on Monday\, August 10\, 2026\, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM\, this special computer class is presented by the San Carlos Library in partnership with TechExchange. The program is designed for adults who want to learn essential computer skills with guidance from a certified instructor. \nLearn Essential Computer Skills in a Supportive Environment\nLearning how to use a computer can feel overwhelming\, especially for people who have limited experience with technology. The TechExchange program is designed to make the learning process approachable\, practical\, and encouraging. \nParticipants will take part in a four-session computer class taught in English by a certified instructor. Rather than attending a single workshop\, participants will learn as part of a cohort\, giving them the opportunity to build their skills gradually while receiving support throughout the program. \nThe complete course consists of eight hours of instruction\, divided into two classes per week over a two-week period. This format gives participants enough time to practice what they learn and become more comfortable using a computer. \nWhether you want to improve your digital literacy\, gain confidence with everyday technology\, or develop skills that can help you with work and personal responsibilities\, this program can provide a valuable foundation. \nA Free Laptop Makes This Opportunity Even More Valuable\nOne of the most exciting benefits of the TechExchange program is that participants who successfully complete all four classes will be able to keep the laptop and take it home. \nThis can make a significant difference for adults who may not currently have reliable access to a computer. Having a laptop at home allows participants to continue practicing their new skills after the classes are over. \nHowever\, there is an important requirement: attendance at all four classes is required to receive the free laptop. Participants should therefore make sure they can attend the complete series before registering. \nLimited Space Available\nThose interested in participating should register as soon as possible because only 10 seats are available. The limited class size allows participants to learn in a more focused and supportive environment while receiving assistance from the instructor when needed. \nThe program is intended specifically for first-time TechExchange participants. If you have previously attended a TechExchange computer class at any San Mateo County Library location and already received a laptop\, you are not eligible to register for this session. \nThis eligibility requirement helps ensure that the available laptops and learning opportunities reach new participants who can benefit from the program. \nWho Can Participate?\nThe Free Computer Skills Classes | TechExchange program is suitable for adults ages 19 and older. The program is particularly welcoming for adults seeking practical life skills and greater confidence with technology. \nThe event is categorized as 55+ Friendly\, Life Skills\, Literacy & ESL\, and Technology & Innovation\, making it an inclusive opportunity for adults with different learning needs and levels of technology experience. \nThe class will be conducted in English\, and participants can expect a structured learning experience designed to introduce and strengthen essential computer skills. \nMark Your Calendar\nThe August 10 class is part of a four-session series. The available event information lists the following sessions: \nMonday\, August 10\, 2026\n1:00 PM – 3:00 PM\nSan Carlos \nThe series continues with Tuesday\, August 11\, 2026\, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM\, with additional sessions forming part of the complete four-class program. \nBecause completing all four classes is necessary to receive the free laptop\, participants should carefully review the full schedule and ensure they are available for every session. \nBuild Confidence and Stay Connected\nDigital literacy is no longer simply an optional skill. Computers are increasingly important for accessing information\, communicating with others\, completing applications\, exploring educational opportunities\, managing documents\, and participating in modern community life. \nPrograms such as TechExchange can help remove some of the barriers that prevent people from becoming comfortable with technology. By combining hands-on instruction\, a supportive classroom environment\, and access to a laptop\, this program gives participants both the knowledge and tools they need to continue learning beyond the classroom. \nIf you or someone you know is an adult who would like to strengthen basic computer skills\, the Free Computer Skills Classes | TechExchange program at the San Carlos Library is an opportunity worth exploring. \nWith only 10 seats available\, early registration is strongly encouraged. Remember that this session is reserved for first-time TechExchange participants\, and completing all four classes is required to receive the free laptop. \nTake the first step toward greater digital confidence\, practical technology skills\, and continued learning by participating in this valuable community program. \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:Discover the Beauty of Outdoor Painting at the Plein Air Landscapes in Watercolor Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Discover the Beauty of Outdoor Painting at the Plein Air Landscapes in Watercolor Workshop\nIf you have ever dreamed of capturing the beauty of nature with a paintbrush\, the WORKSHOP: Plein Air Landscapes in Watercolor is the perfect opportunity to bring that vision to life. Whether you are a beginner looking to develop new artistic skills or an experienced painter hoping to refine your techniques\, this inspiring three-day workshop offers an unforgettable creative experience. Hosted by Art Bias and led by accomplished watercolor artist Megan Afensev\, this event combines expert instruction\, breathtaking coastal scenery\, and the joy of painting in the great outdoors. \nTaking place from Friday\, August 14\, 2026\, at 6:00 PM through Sunday\, August 16\, 2026\, at 6:30 PM\, the workshop begins at Art Bias\, 1700 Industrial Road\, San Carlos\, CA 94070\, before continuing at the picturesque Rockaway Beach and Linda Mar Beach in Pacifica. These stunning coastal locations provide the ideal setting for artists to observe and paint California’s natural landscapes while learning the rewarding practice of plein air painting. \nArt Bias is proud to present the third installment of its popular once-a-month plein air landscape painting series\, which features different artistic mediums and talented instructors throughout the year. This August\, participants will focus on watercolor techniques while discovering how to confidently paint landscapes outdoors. The workshop is thoughtfully designed to help artists understand both the creative and practical aspects of plein air painting\, making it an enriching experience for painters of all skill levels. \nThe weekend begins with a welcoming Friday evening meet-and-greet at Art Bias. During this introductory session\, Megan Afensev will discuss essential painting materials\, watercolor techniques\, and what participants can expect when painting outdoors. This relaxed gathering allows attendees to become familiar with one another\, ask questions\, and prepare for the exciting days ahead. It also provides valuable insight into organizing supplies\, selecting the right tools\, and approaching watercolor painting with confidence. \nFollowing the introductory session\, the workshop moves to the breathtaking beaches of Pacifica. Participants will spend time at both Rockaway Beach and Linda Mar Beach\, where they will paint directly from life while surrounded by the sights and sounds of the California coastline. The ever-changing light\, rolling waves\, dramatic cliffs\, and expansive ocean views create an inspiring environment that encourages creativity while helping artists strengthen their observation skills. \nPainting outdoors presents unique challenges that cannot be replicated in a traditional studio setting. Natural lighting constantly changes\, weather conditions evolve throughout the day\, and landscapes are filled with dynamic movement. Under Megan Afensev’s expert guidance\, participants will learn how to embrace these elements rather than fear them. The workshop will explore techniques for simplifying complex scenes\, creating balanced compositions\, mixing harmonious watercolor palettes\, and confidently capturing the atmosphere of a landscape before the light shifts. \nOne of the greatest benefits of watercolor painting is its ability to produce luminous colors and expressive washes that beautifully reflect the natural world. Throughout the workshop\, attendees will practice layering transparent pigments\, controlling water flow\, and using brush techniques that create depth\, texture\, and movement. Megan’s approachable teaching style encourages experimentation while providing practical instruction that builds confidence with every painting. \nBeyond technical instruction\, this workshop offers an opportunity to reconnect with nature while enjoying a peaceful and supportive artistic community. Spending time outdoors has long been recognized for reducing stress and inspiring creativity. Painting on location encourages artists to slow down\, carefully observe their surroundings\, and appreciate details that are often overlooked in everyday life. The shared experience of working alongside fellow painters also creates lasting friendships and meaningful artistic conversations. \nThe intimate class environment ensures that participants receive personalized guidance throughout the weekend. Megan Afensev will provide demonstrations\, individual feedback\, and practical advice tailored to each artist’s experience level. Whether someone is picking up a watercolor brush for the first time or already has years of painting experience\, every participant will leave with valuable knowledge and greater confidence in their abilities. \nBy the conclusion of the workshop\, attendees will have completed multiple landscape studies while developing skills they can continue practicing long after the event ends. More importantly\, they will leave inspired to take their watercolor supplies outdoors and continue exploring new locations through plein air painting. The combination of expert instruction\, beautiful scenery\, and hands-on experience makes this workshop a memorable investment in both artistic growth and personal enjoyment. \nFor anyone seeking a creative weekend filled with learning\, inspiration\, and spectacular coastal views\, the WORKSHOP: Plein Air Landscapes in Watercolor is an experience not to be missed. Join Megan Afensev and Art Bias from August 14–16\, 2026\, and discover the confidence\, techniques\, and inspiration needed to create beautiful watercolor landscapes while painting directly in nature. Whether your goal is to develop a new hobby or elevate your artistic skills\, this immersive workshop promises an unforgettable journey into the vibrant world of plein air watercolor painting. \nFor more info and to purchase tickets\, click here. \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:23rd Annual Bacchus Harvest Party: Craft Your Own Wine and Create Lasting Memories
DESCRIPTION:23rd Annual Bacchus Harvest Party: Craft Your Own Wine and Create Lasting Memories\nThe 23rd Annual Bacchus Harvest Party invites wine lovers\, families\, friends\, and colleagues to celebrate the art of winemaking in an unforgettable afternoon filled with flavor\, connection\, and creativity. Taking place on August 16\, 2026\, from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm\, this special event offers far more than a traditional wine tasting. It gives guests the opportunity to step into the world of winemaking and imagine what it would be like to create a bottle of wine that is truly their own. \nThe spirit of the celebration is perfectly captured in its invitation: “You be the Winemaker….Craft it….Bottle it….Love it!” From selecting a varietal to exploring distinctive wines\, guests can experience the excitement and craftsmanship behind every bottle. It is an opportunity to learn\, taste\, socialize\, and become part of a tradition that continues to bring people together year after year. \nAt the Bacchus Harvest Party\, guests can savor over 20 distinctive wines while mingling with passionate Bacchus Club members. Each wine offers a chance to discover new flavors\, aromas\, and styles while gaining inspiration for the varietal you may choose to craft during the upcoming harvest. Whether you already know your favorite wine or are still discovering what you enjoy\, the variety makes the experience engaging for everyone. \nThis event is especially appealing to anyone who has ever wondered what happens behind the scenes of winemaking. Rather than simply pouring and tasting wine\, the Bacchus Harvest Party allows guests to become part of the creative process. Choosing a varietal is only the beginning. The journey from grape to finished bottle requires patience\, care\, knowledge\, and passion\, making the prospect of crafting your own wine especially exciting. \nThe party also provides a wonderful setting for meaningful social connections. Bring your family and enjoy an experience that can become part of your annual traditions. Invite friends for an afternoon of conversation and discovery. Gather your colleagues and turn a corporate outing into an experience everyone will remember. The event is designed to create connections that extend beyond the tasting room\, making it an ideal opportunity to celebrate relationships and build lasting memories. \nFor Silicon Valley socialites and wine enthusiasts\, the Bacchus Harvest Party offers a distinctive way to spend an afternoon. Instead of attending another ordinary social gathering\, guests can participate in something interactive\, educational\, and memorable. The combination of exceptional wines\, enthusiastic members\, and the excitement of selecting a varietal creates an atmosphere where conversation flows as naturally as the wine. \nThe event’s emphasis on family and corporate traditions makes it particularly special. Some experiences are enjoyed once and quickly forgotten\, while others become annual occasions that people eagerly anticipate. The Bacchus Harvest Party aims to be the latter. Its welcoming atmosphere encourages guests to return\, bring others\, and make the celebration part of their own traditions. \nMost importantly\, the Bacchus Harvest Party is about creating something truly your own. Winemaking combines creativity and craftsmanship\, transforming carefully selected grapes into a finished product that reflects time\, effort\, and character. By participating in the harvest experience\, guests can gain a deeper appreciation for the work and dedication that goes into every bottle. \nThroughout the afternoon\, every tasting can become part of a larger story. Guests can compare favorites\, exchange impressions\, ask questions\, and discover how different varietals inspire different possibilities. The relaxed environment makes it easy for newcomers to feel welcome while giving experienced wine lovers plenty to appreciate. It is also a chance to slow down\, enjoy good company\, and celebrate the anticipation that comes with a new harvest. With its blend of tasting\, creativity\, and community\, the celebration captures the joy of wine at its best. It reminds us that great wine is not only something to drink; it is something to experience\, share\, and remember together. For everyone\, this is a celebration worth making part of the calendar. \nMark your calendar for August 16\, 2026\, and set aside the afternoon from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm for an experience filled with wine\, friendship\, and inspiration. Whether you are attending with family\, friends\, or colleagues\, the 23rd Annual Bacchus Harvest Party promises an afternoon worth remembering. \nCome ready to taste more than 20 distinctive wines\, meet members of the Bacchus Club\, explore your winemaking possibilities\, and select the varietal you will craft for the harvest. Most of all\, come ready to enjoy the moment. \nThe Bacchus Harvest Party is more than another wine tasting. It is your gateway to the world of winemaking\, a celebration of community\, and an invitation to begin a tradition of your own. You be the Winemaker. Craft it. Bottle it. Love it. And create memories that will last long after the final glass is poured. \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:Paper Airplanes: Discover the Science and Fun of Flight at Hiller Aviation Museum
DESCRIPTION:Paper Airplanes: Discover the Science and Fun of Flight at Hiller Aviation Museum\nWho says you need an actual airplane to become a test pilot? With nothing more than a sheet of paper\, anyone can experiment with speed\, distance\, flight patterns\, and even aerobatics. This August\, families and aviation enthusiasts can discover the fascinating world of paper aviation during Paper Airplanes at the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos. \nTaking place on Saturday\, August 29\, 2026\, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.\, this special event will feature an expert demonstration by John Collins\, a world-record-holding paper airplane designer and one of the top paper airplane makers in the country. \nWhether you have been folding paper airplanes since childhood or have never built one before\, this event offers a fun and fascinating look at how a simple piece of paper can become a surprisingly capable flying machine. \nEveryone Can Become a Test Pilot\nPaper airplanes are one of those timeless activities that can turn an ordinary piece of paper into an experiment in flight. \nA small change in the fold can affect how an airplane flies. Adjusting the wings can change its stability. Changing the nose\, angles\, or weight distribution can influence its speed and distance. \nThat is part of what makes paper airplanes so much fun. They allow people to experiment with basic principles of aerodynamics without needing complicated equipment. \nAt Paper Airplanes\, visitors can see just how much creativity and science can go into designing a successful paper glider. \nMeet World Record Holder John Collins\nThe featured guest for this event is John Collins\, a master paper airplane builder and world distance paper airplane record holder. \nCollins has dedicated years to understanding the design and performance of paper airplanes. His expertise has helped demonstrate that creating an impressive paper aircraft involves much more than simply folding a sheet of paper. \nDuring the event\, Collins will provide an expert demonstration showcasing the wonder\, delight\, and aeronautic capabilities of handmade paper gliders. \nHis presentation is an opportunity to learn from someone who has taken this seemingly simple hobby to an extraordinary level. \nDiscover the Aerodynamics of Paper Flight\nOne of the most exciting parts of paper airplanes is seeing how science affects their performance. \nDifferent designs can produce dramatically different results. Some are built for distance\, while others are designed for speed or stability. Certain models can even perform impressive aerial maneuvers. \nCollins will demonstrate the capabilities of handmade paper gliders and give visitors an opportunity to appreciate the design decisions that can make one paper airplane fly farther or more effectively than another. \nFor children\, the activity can introduce basic concepts of science\, engineering\, experimentation\, and problem-solving in a fun and approachable way. \nFrom Simple Folds to Record-Breaking Designs\nAlthough almost everyone has made a paper airplane at some point\, record-breaking designs require a deeper understanding of folding techniques and aerodynamics. \nCollins has authored several books dedicated to building paper airplanes\, giving enthusiasts the opportunity to continue exploring the hobby after the event. \nHis books will also be available at the event\, and Collins will be there to personalize them for visitors. For aspiring paper airplane designers\, having a signed and personalized book from a world-record holder can make the experience even more memorable. \nA Fun Event for Families and Aviation Fans\nPaper Airplanes is an ideal event for families looking for an educational activity that does not feel like a traditional classroom lesson. \nChildren can discover how experimentation and creativity work together\, while adults may find themselves reconnecting with a favorite childhood pastime. \nAviation enthusiasts will also appreciate the opportunity to explore flight from a completely different perspective. Instead of looking at large aircraft\, engines\, and complex machines\, this event focuses on one of the simplest possible forms of aviation: a folded sheet of paper. \nThe event demonstrates that the principles behind flight can be fascinating at any scale. \nEvent Details\nEvent: Paper Airplanes\nDate: Saturday\, August 29\, 2026\nTime: 11:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m.\nVenue: Hiller Aviation Museum\nAddress: 601 Skyway Rd.\, San Carlos\, CA 94070\nFeatured Expert: John Collins\, world distance paper airplane record holder \nFrom childhood experiments to world-record designs\, paper airplanes demonstrate how creativity\, science\, and curiosity can come together in a remarkably simple way. \nJoin John Collins at the Hiller Aviation Museum for an hour of fascinating demonstrations and aviation fun. Discover how handmade paper gliders can achieve impressive distances and maneuvers\, learn from a true expert\, and explore the surprisingly sophisticated world behind one of childhood’s most beloved activities. \nGrab a sheet of paper\, bring your curiosity\, and get ready to see paper airplanes in a whole new way! \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.

SUMMARY:Children’s Redwood Theater: Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters Brings Storybook Magic to Filoli
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. That is the experience Filoli’s Children’s Redwood Theater is designed to create. \nFor this performance\, audiences will meet Miss Emu\, a famous author in the Queendom whose beloved storybook characters have unexpectedly run away. With her characters missing\, Miss Emu needs help finding them—and the audience becomes part of the adventure. \nChildren can follow along as the story develops\, meeting characters and discovering where the runaway figures may have gone. The combination of storytelling\, theater\, humor\, and an outdoor setting makes this an engaging experience for young children and their families. \nMeet Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters\nRabbit Hole Theater’s “Miss Emu and Her Lost Characters” offers a playful premise that encourages children to use their imagination. \nThe idea of storybook characters escaping from their own stories creates plenty of opportunities for fun and surprises. 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.

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. Sewing does not have to be intimidating. With the right guidance and some practice\, beginners can quickly learn useful techniques. \nWorkshop Details\nEvent: Learn to Sew & Refashion! [Aug]\nDate: Wednesday\, August 26\nTime: 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM PDT\nCost: $45\nLocation: 641 Laurel Street\, San Carlos\, CA 94070 \nBring a clothing project you would like to work on\, and feel free to bring your own sewing machine. If you do not have one\, a machine will be available for you to use. \nWhether you want to save a favorite pair of pants\, improve the fit of a dress\, refresh an old skirt\, or simply learn a valuable new skill\, this workshop is a great opportunity to get started. \nLearn to sew\, refashion what you already own\, and discover the confidence that comes from creating something useful with your own hands. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n  \nSee other interesting events in San Carlos.
