Palo Alto Art Center Fall 2010 Exhibits

Posted in Palo Alto
October 18th, 2010 by admin

For Fall 2010, the Palo Alto Art Center will be displaying three exciting exhibits, running from Sept. 25 through Dec. 12, 2010, for all to enjoy.

So what can you expect to see? Their website gives an excellent summary of the three compelling exhibits :

In Focus: Collecting Photography showcases the unique character of, and stories behind, four diverse photography collections formed by art professionals who live in the Bay Area. Light from the Underground is a photographic essay by Colette Campbell-Jones based on communal memories collected from miners and families in South Wales. Paintings from Haiti presents selections from the collection of Dr. Ralph S. Greco. Many of the paintings make palpable the invisible powers of belief that have sustained a culture through centuries of adversity.

As covered in an earlier post, the Art Center is scheduled to undergo a significant remodel and renovation. In order to facilitate this transformation, the Palo Alto Art Center Foundation is kicking off a community-wide “Where Art Transforms” capital campaign to raise the funds necessary to renovate the Art Center. This project recently received two generous gifts from Ann Bowers and the Packard Foundation and is very close to its funding requirements .

To learn more about the campaign and how you can help, click here or watch their video below.

Altaire loves all that Palo Alto has to offer and we are very excited to see the proposed renovations to the Palo Alto Art Center become a reality.

Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival

Posted in Events
October 15th, 2010 by admin

credit: miramarevents.com

When you think of Fall what comes to mind? Cooler weather, the leaves changing color and pumpkins…..lots of pumpkins.

For those of you who would like to celebrate the Fall season in style, look no further than the quaint coastal community of Half Moon Bay. The 40th Annual Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival takes place this weekend, October 16 & 17 from 9am – 5pm.

The festival has become quite an event, with a loyal following.  Here is a  little background (from the official festival site) describing  how the small coastal community became synonymous with pumpkins in all shapes and sizes.

The pumpkin boom can be traced back to growers in the area who began to plant pumpkins in the 1930′s. In the early 30’s, teenager John Arata and his brother Clarence began planting pumpkin seeds to feed the family’s hogs. One day, they were hauling some of their pumpkins along Highway One back to the farm when a passing motorist stopped and asked if he could buy a few. The Arata’s sold the pumpkins for a quarter and a booming pumpkin-picking business and tourist attraction was born.

And the tradition continues on today as more than 3,000 tons of pumpkins are grown each year by 15 or so commercial growers in the Half Moon Bay area. They ship pumpkins all over the United States and sell to many of the large retailers in the Bay Area.
Although the focus is on pumpkins, there is something for everyone at the festival…..parades, costume contests, family activities and great food and drink await you as well.

One more reason Altaire loves life on the peninsula. Have fun!

A Homebuyer’s Guide to Buying Green

Posted in Green Living
October 4th, 2010 by admin

image credit: builditgreen.orgIn the market for a healthy, energy- and resource-efficient home?  Knowledge is power and  the GreenPoint Rated label provides a means to evaluate and rank New Single Family and Multifamily Homes as it pertains to a home’s green features. Each Green-Point rated home is evaluated and a consumer label is provided indicating the performance of the property in five unique categories.  These categories are:

  • Energy Efficiency
  • Indoor Air Quality
  • Resource Efficiency
  • Water Conservation
  • and Community.

A Green-Point rated home gives you the assurance that you’re getting a healthier, more environmentally responsible home for your family because rated homes are verified by third party Certified GreenPoint Raters to exceed state building and energy code requirements for health and environmental performance.

We all need a place to call home.  Altaire believes that home ownership is not just about your home, but also includes your community and the environment in which we live.  Altaire – it’s what living Green in Palo Alto is all about.
