SUMMARY:Small Steps Holiday Shopping Event
DESCRIPTION:SMALL STEPS is a local\, non-profit organization which\, for nineteen years\, has put on an event benefitting local children on a Saturday in November. Our mission is to provide warm winter jackets and shoes for up to 375 deserving children in San Benito County who have been identified by their teachers. \nThis year our shopping trip is on November 5\, 2016. Target and Payless Shoe Source open their doors to the children\, escorted by volunteers\, at 7:00 a.m. These stores generously give a discount for all Small Steps purchases. Each child is accompanied by a volunteer who is 18 years or older. Each volunteer is provided an envelope with up to $100.00 to spend\, primarily on shoes and a warm jacket. With our goal of up to 375 children\, a minimum of 400 volunteers are needed on the day of the event. The volunteers must sign up in advance and their names\, addresses\, and driver’s license numbers are compared to the Megan’s Law list. Thumbprints and photos of all volunteers are taken on the day of the event. We are asking the people of our community\, businesses\, churches and organizations for help. Please check out our website for more information and to download a volunteer form. We could really use your help!

Bob Sypek\, at the young age of 85\, has done over 600 Spin Classes and is my Star Spinner that exemplifies that age is just a number! In 2013\, I added Tabata Bootcamp which is a High Intensity Interval Training Fitness Class. It is a fast\, effective and full body strength and cardio workout!  In 2014\, I added Jillian Michaels Bodyshred to the mix which is another HIIT Class. I will be bringing Bodyshred back at the end of October- beginning of November 2016. In August of 2016\, I doubled my space and brought in an incredible Yoga Instructor\, Jacqueline Tennant\, whose classes you are sure to love! Elizabeth Armenta also start teaching Zumba Muvz classes! I am grateful and humbled that our Live to Cycle family continues to grow!  It is an honor and a privilege to continue to offer the residents of Hollister just the right fitness class to empower them to lead a long\, healthy and fit life.

SUMMARY:Elizabeth Williams & Judith Ogus Studio Art Show
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Williams and Judith Ogus met in 2010 when they shared a show at SJB’s former Galeria Tonantzin. Judith was hanging illustrations from her Cancer Frog Blog\, in which she used the avatar of a frog to recount the challenges of cancer treatment\, failing parents\, and living in a period of climate change. Elizabeth\, also preoccupied with the plight of animals on this warming planet\, filled the rest of the gallery with images of ocean life. The two immediately felt a connection and do to this day. They share a mutual love of folk art\, stripes and dots\, animals\, wood cut outs and the use of a myriad of materials. Over the years they have become fast friends\, inspiring and encouraging each other in their respective art journeys. \nArtist’s Statement • Elizabeth Williams \nI use wood\, paint\, and found objects to make sculptures and paintings. This show will exhibit “Americana” type subjects including winged angels\, swimming mermaids\, toothed whales\, leaping horses\, adoring dogs\, funky dolls and anthropomorphic robots. \nI ‘ve been making art all my life. I grew up in an old New England town in the ‘60’s  during an arts and crafts revival. I learned tool use\, making things by hand and love of art from my parents. Some of my favorite artists are: James Castle\, Edward Hicks\, Horace Pippin and Judith Ogus! I admire gothic sculpture\, indigenous art and self taught folk/primitive art. I live in Watsonville\, CA\, where I enjoy looking at the clouds\, fields\, mountains and bay\, having fun with friends\, and making art. \nArtist’s Statement • Judith Ogus \nI am an eclectic artist. I carve\, weld\, paint\, make mobiles\, have conceptual art ideas\, draw cartoons\, pile rocks and takes thousands of photos. From the time I was a little girl my mother dragged my brothers and me to art galleries\, museums and ancient ruins. I remember making my first piece of art as a six-year-old — a huge elephant painting. The possibility of making something bigger than myself filled me with joy. Now I make some large things and some very small things\, some things material and some things digital. \nAnimals\, the environment and what it is to be human are my sources of inspiration. This show will include carved small chairs\, painted wooden cutouts of horses and “Chicken Littles\,” butterfly wings and dogs\, a mobile of flying birds\, Apocalyptic Puzzles and welded fish. We will also have a selection of greeting cards and prints. \nI am excited to share this exhibition with Elizabeth Williams.  I love her work. When I see new pieces of hers\, I either want them or wish I had made them myself. She has taught me to be more playful and free in my own art-making. Her paintings of women flying over landscapes on horseback ring true to my feelings when I am riding – a sense of exaltation and being transported beyond all the worries of the day.
