Art at the JCC is hosting a juried art show for the Santa Barbara Art Association (SBAA). Paintings in a mix of media and genres will be submitted by SBAA members to be judged for excellence. Those chosen will exhibit at the Bronfman Family Jewish Community Center Gallery July 5-Sept. 25, 2012.  The judge will be Frank Goss, owner of Sullivan Goss - An American Gallery.

Artist and collector Eli Luria launched Art at the JCC in 1999 to provide high-caliber, strongly-themed exhibits for the Santa Barbara community. The exhibit openings often feature gallery talks and panels with artists, curators and collectors that draw lively crowds.

The Santa Barbara Art Association’s first exhibition was in June 1952 at the Faulkner Gallery’s reopening after the war. Started by a few of the local artists with the mission to present free art shows and encourage art in the community, they have sponsored over 500 shows at venues around town with a rich diversity of art in various media. SBAA now has 545 members, including painters, printmakers, mixed media artists, sculptors, ceramists, fused glass makers, and jewelers. SBAA is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year.

Dinner reservation needed - only 80 tickets available

Sponsored by Mothers for Peace

We are honored to host Cheiko Shiina, a mother from Fukushima who will be on a week-long speaking tour of California organized by Steve Zeltzer and Umi Hagitani of Nuke-Free California. They are traveling the coast of California to talk about the disaster at Fukushima.

 Mothers for Peace member Carole Hisasue of Los Osos will also share her experiences from several trips to Japan since the catastrophe. Carole is in Tokyo now. She writes, "I am from Tokyo, where I worked in radio and television. Moved to SLO in 2006 to find a life of health, sustainability and self-sufficiency. I thought our little ranch was perfect for that (despite Diablo Canyon so close by.) The Fukushima Daiichi disaster kicked me awake. Extended family members in Fukushima Prefecture have suffered the most in the aftermath of the disaster, but the problem is not just a local one. It is worldwide."

Steve Zeltzer has made a documentary film, "Fukushima: Never Again!," which will be available for purchase that evening.

This will be a rare opportunity to hear first-hand accounts from Fukushima.  We hope you will plan to join us.

The dinner including tip is $25. Vegetarian lasagna as only Cafe Roma does it, salad and dessert will be served, and wine by the glass at a no-host bar.

How to reserve you ticket:  Pay via the Mothers for Peace website. mothersforpeace.org  or you can mail a check payable to Mothers for Peace to Evy Justesen, 2065 McCollum St, SLO 93405.

Please pay for your ticket by July 1 so we can give Cafe Roma a head count by July 4th.

Launch and Signing of Children’s books: “Camouflage” and “Ants on a Log” at Whiz Kids Toy Store, San Luis Obispo.

Local children’s book author, Beryl Reichenberg will be launching two of her books on Saturday, July 14 from 11 AM to 3 PM at Whiz Kids Toy Store at 3979 S. Higuera in San Luis Obispo, next to Trader Joe’s.

Beryl will be on hand to sign her books, “Ants on a Log” and “Camouflage” and to answer questions and talk about her writing process. Small children are welcome to make a small book.

Beryl has been a San Luis Obispo artist for many years, and during the past five years, she also turned to writing and illustrating children’s books. “I remember how my grandfather told us stories when we were young in an old, rocking chair by the fireplace. I started by writing stories for my own grandchildren.”

She has now produced over 35 titles, illustrated with her drawings and photographs. A traditional publisher, Oak Tree Press, has published three of her books. Blurb.com publishes the other titles.

She holds a Master’s Degree from UCLA and has taught school in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles. She now lives in San Luis Obispo, California.

Also at the book launch will be Gini Griffin, another local artist who drew the animals for “Camouflage”. In the past, Gini has illustrated other book covers and has a degree in Fine Arts from Claremont Colleges. Beryl Reichenberg completed the illustrations in “Camouflage” and produced the illustrations for “Ants on a Log”.

Please join them both at this event. For more information, call Whiz Kids Toy Store at 805-547-1733.

(Press Release, Page 2 for Beryl Reichenberg) Summary of “Camouflage”

How do animals hide, camouflage and protect themselves in the wild? This interactive book, encourages young children to hunt for various animals in their native habitat and to find their hiding places.

Summary of “Ants on a Log”

Jack the Rabbit is a picky eater and refuses to eat vegetables, no matter how much his mother tries to encourage him. How do school snacks, like ants on a log, entice him to eat his greens?

Night Owl Reviews calls “Ants on a Log” a "cute children's story (that) will delight children with illustrations of little bunnies that they can relate to" and recommends it as "a wonderful addition to any child or family's library."

Xiaojian Zhao of UCSB presents a historical look at the Chinese in Santa Barbara at the Santa Barbara Genealogical Society monthly meeting.

The Santa Barbara County Genealogical Society holds its monthly general meeting on Saturday July 21st, at the First Presbyterian Church, 21 E. Constance at State Street, 9:30 am to 12:00 pm.  Special interest Groups meet at 9:30am for Beginning Genealogy, German Ancestry, Italian Ancestry and Computer Genealogy and 9:00am for JewishGen.  Featured program starts at 10:30am.

This month’s meeting features Xiaojian Zhao, Associate Professor of Asian American Studies at UC Santa Barbara.  Her talk will focus on her film project about the history of the Chinese immigrants in Santa Barbara beginning in the 1860s. The presentation will include images and documents from her years of research. She will share some of the unique features of the relationship between Chinese immigrant laborers and Santa Barbara residents in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Xiaojian Zhao was born in China and completed her Ph.D. in History from the University of California at Berkeley. She is former Chair of the UCSB Department of Asian American Studies from 2005 to 2008. She has offered courses in Asian American History, Chinese American History, Asian American Women's History, Asian Americans in American Law, and Asian American Families.

Her book, Remaking Chinese America, was published in 2002 by Rutgers University Press, and it was subsequently awarded the History Book Award from the Association for Asian American Studies. In recognition of her work, the Award Committee said: "Xiaojian Zhao's Remaking Chinese America, with its focus on the reunification of trans-Pacific families in the post-World War II period, offers an interpretation of an understudied era in Asian American history that is complex and humane--a rich portrait of families living an ocean apart that reunited and built communities in the United States.

Special interest Groups meet at 9:30am for Beginning Genealogy, German Ancestry, Italian Ancestry and Computer Genealogy and 9:00am for JewishGen.  Meeting and featured program starts at 10:30am.

Come join us. You do not need to be a member to enjoy this wonderful presentation.
