While traveling through Watsonville on June 1st, I came across a grid of four inch figures representing “every person who has died in Iraq since we invaded.” The exhibition is at Sierra Azul Nursery and Gardens and is part of the Pajaro Valley Arts Council exhibit, Sculpture IS, which is showing June 2nd through July 30th. Thirty-nine regional artists are showing over seventy pieces of work ranging from installation and performance art to a variety of sculptures that are kinetic, functional, traditional and collaborative.
On April 17th, 2006, the Watsonville Brown Berets held the 6th annual Youth and Power. The theme was “Brown and Black Pride” and the event, held on a Monday night, brought together more than thousand people from ‘Los Atzlan’ to the Bay Area.
