Color Me Mine opened the doors to a brand new studio in downtown Lafayette in the La Fiesta Square. This paint-it-yourself ceramics studio lets customers design and paint their pieces and pick them up later after the studio glazes and fires their works of arts. I've also just learned of a new retail shop—Monkey Bars—for baby clothing, gear and furniture on Park Street in the charming island city of Alameda. You'll find lots of organic cottons and gender neutral items in this fun, hip store, which is great for baby shower shopping.
Congratulations to MOCHA (Museum of Children's Art) in Oakland. This wonderful non-profit will be celebrating 20 years of children's art with a birthday bonanza, featuring an art-cade of fun for kids of all ages. Located in Swan's Marketplace on 9th Street, MOCHA manages children's art exhibitions and also offers studio art workshops and camps. Visit www.mocha.org to check out their online gallery and get details on their birthday celebration, slated for April 26, from noon-5pm. Admission is free.
Speaking of free. Camp Kesem, a UC Berkeley student-run program that offers a free summer camp for kids who have or had a parent with cancer, is now enrolling for their camp in August. The one-week camp is open to all children, ages 6-13, in the Bay Area and Central Valley. Camper applications are available online at www.campkesem.org/berkeley.
