I'd like to invite you all to our very first Halloween/Dia de los Muertos party, this Sunday from 2:00-5:00. It's a fundraiser for Berkeley Maynard Academy's after school program.

We'll have DDLM-themed art from the BMA kids, a performance of The Prospect Bear, a children's book written and scored by Elan Vytal, a costume contest, and more.

I knew that the day would come eventually. It came much sooner than I thought, and has taken me by surprise.

Actual Cafe is new.  But the idea isn’t.  Although you might not know that if you’ve lived in the area for the last bunch of years.
