Connecting Cultures – Connecting Community – Saturday & Sunday, May 21 & 22, 10am – 4:30pm

A new cast of 35 musicians and dancers will tell the story of Alameda Point – a site that served as an airport for the PanAm China Clippers in the 1920s, became a naval air station that staged four wars, and is now being repurposed, fulfilling the promise of a community’s future. Sat/Sun, May 21/22 at Alameda’s West Mall Square.

Audiences will join ODC/Dance, 13th Floor, Maze Daiko and Akira Tana Trio on a 75-minute, outdoor performance art walk that takes them on a journey from the wings of peace to the wings of war and from boot camp to WWII internment camp.

The Experience, Alameda: Almanac Beer Co. + WCK for Ukraine

The Experience:

Buy Peaceful Pils & Provide Fresh Food & Hot Meals to our Ukrainian Friends!

Almanac is raising money to feed Ukrainians through World Central Kitchen. Peaceful Pilsner is a hopeful lager, brewed in solidarity with Ukrainians, and all people suffering from the impacts of war.

This Bohemian-style pilsner directly supports the work of World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit that’s first to the frontlines, providing meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. You can find Peaceful Pilsner at the taproom this weekend, on the webstore, and at the San Francisco Ferry Plaza Farmers Market this Saturday! Free shipping when you order any six 4-packs or more.

About WCK

Within days of the initial Russian invasion, WCK began serving meals to families traveling long distances and waiting for hours at various border crossings in Poland and then in Romania, Moldova, Hungary, and Slovakia. At the same time, urgent food needs quickly grew within Ukraine. They started working with local restaurants and bakers with their partner volunteers to provide large quantities of meals for the Ukrainians.

“It’s a universal human right to live free from hunger,” states founder & chef José Andrés. At first it seemed overwhelming. “But many complex problems have simple solutions. Sometimes you just need to decide to do something. Sometimes you just have to show up with a sandwich or some warm rice and beans. You’d be amazed at the power of a plate of food. It can change the world, and so can you.”

Almanac’s Barrel House, Taproom and Brewery are open 7 days a week!
