SUMMARY:Campo-Sano Climate Action Conference
DESCRIPTION:Campo-Sano Climate Action: A Regional Conference on California Farmworkers and the Environment will be co-hosted on October 4th\, 2025\, by the University of California\, Santa Cruz\, and community partners \nThe conference will address the challenges of resilience amid the impacts of climate changes and the many other compounding risks farmworkers face. We will first review lessons learned from developing practical remedies and health promoter training designed to protect farming communities. Next\, we will involve all attendees in deliberating ways to scale up these protective efforts and make them sustainable amid mounting social and political challenges. \nProgram Description \nThe daylong conference will start with a morning session including testimonies of health promoters from local community-based organizations (CBO’s) and UCSC students. The frontline community health workers will describe the challenges they face in trying to protect farmworkers from environmental stressors in a context that is also overshadowed by chronic but intensifying political and economic vulnerabilities. \nA report will also be delivered by faculty on the two-year effort supported by funding from a Californian Climate Action grant to develop the Campo-Sano data app. This app is designed to inform local farm communities on climate related risks from exposures to high temperatures\, flooding\, wildfire air pollution\, groundwater contamination and other risks. We will showcase how this application can be used on mobile phones to support farmworkers who want to report their experience of these risks anonymously to state agencies and legal advocacy groups. \nA keynote luncheon presentation will be followed by a dialogue between representatives of state agencies and local community-based partners. Discussion panels and breakout sessions will engage these CBO’s and state agency officials to explore the extension of workplace protections for farmworkers and further regulation enforcement\, as well as the possible scale-up of Campo-Sano trainings across the state. This dialogue is critical in the face of the federal government’s retreat from protecting agricultural workers\, their employers and the food security they support for our wider community.

SUMMARY:Fall is for Planting!
DESCRIPTION:Join us on the patio at Norrie’s Gift & Garden Shop at the Arboretum & Botanic Garden.  \nThe UC Master Gardeners will host a pop-up booth to give information and answer questions about the benefits of planting in the fall and growing Mediterranean climate plants. \nWe know how hard it is to resist a beautiful blossom in the springtime\, but fall really is the best time for planting. By planting in the fall\, your plants will benefit from winter rains\, shorter days\, and cooler temperatures. This means they’ll be well established come springtime\, and you’ll be able to enjoy the blossoms in your own garden. \nNorrie’s features plants from the Mediterranean regions of South Africa\, Australia\, Chile\, and California. At this pop-up\, we will be selling a rare native iris for the first time. We will also have special offerings of Dudleya varieties grown here at the Arboretum from wild\, collected seed.

SUMMARY:Road Trip! Light in the American West\, from Baja to the Yukon
DESCRIPTION:The photographs in this exhibition\, made between 2004 and 2025\, span across the American West from the Baja California Peninsula in Mexico to The Yukon territory in Canada. Paul Schoellhamer’s (Cowell ‘69) color photographs invite us to travel with him and reflect on our relationship to land\, the light that shapes it\, and the freedom – contested but essential – to move across it. \nThe exhibition draws on voices across time and perspective that frame the American landscape as more than a stage for beauty and awe. For Chief Satanta of the Kiowa Nation\, to roam the land freely was life itself. For N. Scott Momaday\, land must be “believed to be seen.” For Eliot Porter\, light and reflection imparted magic to Glen Canyon’s waters. For Wallace Stegner\, saving natural places meant saving fragments of our collective sanity. For Brook M. Thompson\, the Klamath River is recognized with personhood. Alongside these perspectives\, Paul’s images press us to see public land not as scenery to extract or aestheticize\, but as sustenance and history. Land is alive and contested. To see closely is not to linger on a romanticized vision of the American landscape\, but to reckon with responsibility: how we safeguard access\, how we imagine “wildness\,” and how we hold space for futures beyond our own. For Paul\, this exhibition is a call for students to encounter land and light firsthand and let those encounters be their teachers. \nOpening Reception\nOctober 4\, 2025\n1-4pm \n—– \nJoin us every Friday for Art Fridays.\nNo experience necessary. Supplies and snacks provided. \n\nSep 26 Snail Mail/Postcards\nOct 3 Souvenir Keychains\nOct 10 Stamp Magnets\nOct 17 Cyanotype Totebags/Pouches/Pencil cases\nOct 24 Candy Around The World Linocuts\nOct 31 Abstract Felt Collages\nNov 7 Phone Photos/Buttons\nNov 14 Travel Related Patches With Upcycled Materials\nNov 21 Thanksgiving Break! No Art Friday\nNov 28 Unexpected Landscape Surrealist Collage\n\nPlease note that the date and the project is subject to change.
