Free 20-Minute Photo Coaching Session with Camera or Lens

Looking Glass Photographic Outfitters

Here in Berkeley, Looking Glass Photo is where gear, guidance, and community come together—since 1971. We’re a boutique-style camera shop that outfits photographers with exactly what they need and nothing they don’t. That means real conversations, hands-on help, and curated solutions across top brands like Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Sony and more. We carry new gear, offer a thoughtful selection of preowned and consignment cameras and lenses, and place special orders when the perfect fit isn’t on the shelf. Learning is at the heart of what we do. Join our small-group classes and workshops, sign up for photo adventures in the wild (from tide pools to elk rut season), or dig into image reviews and practical technique sessions. Our Rentals program makes it easy to test drive the latest bodies, lenses, lighting and accessories—perfect for a weekend project or a big assignment—while our “Try Before You Buy” and paid Gear Outfitting service help you make confident choices. What makes us unique? Personalized coaching before and after a purchase, community-driven events (including our Photo Friends network), and a values-driven approach that puts longevity and stewardship first. We stand behind the gear we sell, keep darkroom and printing essentials flowing, and cheer on your growth every step of the way. Whether you’re brand-new to photography or a seasoned pro, Looking Glass is your trusted partner for classes, adventures, rentals, consignment and used gear, and a welcoming community that lifts each other up.

Marin Art and Garden Center

Hey Ross, CA! Indie Pop Star Michelle Lambert is coming your way!
From Boston to Nashville, from Denver to Miami, Pop-Folk singer/songwriter Michelle Lambert has been performing to audiences all over the country! And now, Michelle brings her amazing show to the Marin Art and Garden Center’s Redwood Amphitheater, Thursday, August 20th. Come with the entire family and enjoy Michelle‘s Pop/Folk set with influences from Ed Sheeran and Amy Winehouse!
Now touring out of the San Francisco Bay Area, Michelle will take you through the adventures of her life with insightful lyrics, powerful vocals, energetic delivery, and electric violin hooks! The artist and songwriter Michelle will reflect on the experiences she has been through, from the rigid and committed work as a classical violinist and singer during her early days in Northern California, to the happy and festive Celtic music honed in Scotland. From the structured sounds of the classrooms at Berklee School of Music in Boston to the years spent perfecting her storytelling on the stages of the Honky Tonks in Nashville, Michelle has emerged as the professional entertainer guaranteed to please audiences of all ages. Don’t be mistaken by her colorful clothes, her flying red ponytails or her candid smile. When Michelle steps on stage, you will witness all of her experiences melded together to generate a result that defies music genres or styles.

Come enjoy great music and a message of hope as we explore favorite
Broadway musicals and deeper spiritual themes in our annual “God on
Broadway” series. Shows in this year’s series are: "The Lion King”
(August 2), “Man of La Mancha” (August 9), “The Music Man” (August 16),
and “Maybe Happy Ending” (August 23). Our pianist/composer John
Steiner and guest musicians will perform songs from each production. 

Rev. Cynthia Cochran-Carney will explore meaningful and humorous
connections between Broadway shows and biblical stories, saying “The
arts inform all aspects of our lives, including our spiritual lives.
Many of the musicals look at challenging social issues, including
racism, poverty, exploitation, and diversity. In this time of
polarization and division, the arts can open us up to see joys and
challenges from someone else’s perspective.” 

Sing, laugh and learn valuable life lessons with us in the sanctuary on
Sundays in August at 9:30 am at First Presbyterian Church of San Rafael,
1510 Fifth Avenue The building is handicap accessible. The services
are livestreamed on YouTube. 

For more information, visit <a href="https://file:///C:/Users/Cynthia/FPCSR%20Dropbox/Cynthia%20Cochran-Carney/Cynthia's%20files/letterhead%20%232/www.fpcsr.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.fpcsr.org</a> or call 415-456-6760
