On May 3rd Don Lau visited with Richmond Art Center Executive Director Jose Rivera and Community Engagement Director Amy Spencer to drop off a donation to RAC to refurbish the floor in the main gallery. The current display is the WCCUSD Student Art Show (we supported their reception last year). Once that display comes down the floor work will start.

On April 30th, Richmond Rotarians got to spend an afternoon observing the 3rd grade after school Book Club that we sponsor with Orinda Rotary Club.

Thanks to Ken Jew of Orinda and Erle Brown of Richmond for starting the program. This is the fourth year of the 10 week program and this year they read 4 different versions of the Cinderella story (Mexican, French, Egyptian, and Filipino). After reading the stories the students wrote their own Cinderella story. Thanks to Peres Principal Christy Titong Chen and the three 3rd grade teachers Cathy Baker, Elizabeth Haynes-Mumford and Kayontaya Pace.
