New Ceramics Studio Opens in San Clemente

Also, a school puts out a call for help, music, movies and good times.

1. From Pico Boulevard to Avenida Pico: There’s a new ceramics studio in town. After 17 years, Jennifer Joyce Ceramic Arts Art Studio & Gallery has moved from Santa Monica to San Clemente. The shop at 131 Avenida Navarro, the site of a former woodworking company, is “a relaxing haven for artists and non-artists of all skill levels to disappear into a quiet, nurturing environment and work with clay,” Joyce says in a press release. She especially likes the parallel of once being on Pico Boulevard and now being near Avenida Pico. “It must be meant to be,” she said.

2. Las Palmas needs your help: Principal Kristen Nelson is putting the call out. Las Palmas could use some middle and/or high school students this week or next (for a few hours) to assist in instructional materials and textbook chores.  If you have a child who could help us for community service hours, please call Yolanda Gascon at 234-5004.
