The Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue Project, now in its seventh year, helps keep beaches, rivers, parks and lakes across America “barefoot friendly.” In 2013, Barefoot Wine and the Surfrider Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protection and enjoyment of the world’s oceans, waves and beaches, along with community volunteers, are embarking on a tour of 15 cleanups nationwide, stopping in Boston, MA.  Cleanup 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm on the Charles River at Christian A. Herter Park. Meet at the parking lot off Soldiers Field Road, near the community garden, Boston, MA 02134.  Look for the Surfrider tent!  Free.

Volunteers are also invited to attend a celebration, organized by the Surfrider Foundation, featuring Barefoot Wine, surf-inspired fare and a performance by Eric Hutchinson. Tickets for the celebration will be distributed at the cleanup. Celebration 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm at The Sinclair 52 Church St. Cambridge, MA 02138.  Please note that all events are limited to those 21 years of age or older.

Wednesday, July 24, 9:30 am – 2:30 pm – Multi-Media Color Explosion

by

Using different media including colored pencils, watercolors, and collage, the Wellesley College Botanic Garden will help you understand how color works.  Carol Govan instructs on matching the local color and making objects look three dimensional.  With just a few colors, play with highlights and shadows on those objects.  Understand how using the same principles with different media will affect your image.  The class, held on Wednesday, July 24 from 9:30 – 2:30 at the WCBG Visitor Center, is $60 for WCBG members, $75 for nonmembers.  Register on line at www.wellesley.edu/wcbgfriends.  Image from makingamark.blogspot.com.
