Merlin Snider & Band | CD Release Concert & Celebration
Enjoy the melodies of Merlin Snider & Band while savoring delicious drinks and appetizers during this exciting studio concert & CD release celebration!
"My music is acoustic to the core, bending and blending American roots genres of folk, blues, jazz, rock and gospel—all the soulful stuff that has seeped under my skin over the years. On the latest album several splendid players added their touch on mandolin, fiddle, upright and electric bass, drums, banjo, penny whistle, cornet, piano, and percussion. "
- Merlin Snider

Casa Pacifica Holiday Celebration
We ended another wonderful year at Art Trek with our Casa Pacifica Holiday Celebration! On Christmas Eve we gathered at our studio with the children of Casa Pacifica and had a massive end of the year celebration. Volunteers, friends, and staff worked hard cooking, stuffing presents, decorating, and making our studio transform into a winter wonderland. Santa and Mrs. Claus made a surprise appearance after their bellies were full and we all joined to sing in and out of tune during holiday carols. The children spent their day getting their faces painted, doing art, decorating cookies, playing games, petting bunnies, and dancing the Macarena. What a hilarious time! It is a magical day of bonding, laughing, and spreading love to others. From afar it may look like just another holiday celebration but up close, this is a heart warming and special day for everyone involved. Everyone leaves with a smile from ear to ear!
Throwback Thursday: Camp Kesem Fundraiser!
