THE RIVERSIDE 

FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS 

DAZZLES DOWNTOWN 

DON’T MISS YOUR CHANCE 

TO EXPERIENCE THE MOST 

DAZZLING HOLIDAY SPECTACLE 

SOUTH OF THE NORTH POLE! 

The Riverside Festival of Lights is almost here, marking 23 

years of illuminating downtown Riverside and lifting the 

spirits of residents and visitors during the holiday season. 

The Festival offers five weeks of merriment in Downtown Riverside, November 

27 – January 2. As the largest holiday celebration in the region, 

the Festival of Lights has become a holiday tradition for families, visitors 

and groups alike. Celebrate the season with family activities that include Inland 

Southern California’s first outdoor ice skating rink, holiday-themed vendors, 

endless hours of family-friendly live entertainment, unique shopping and creative 

dining along Main Street Riverside, and, of course, Santa Claus. 

With the flip of a switch, Riverside’s downtown will instantly illuminate 

with more than three and a half million twinkling lights 

and spectacular fireworks during the magical November 

27 th “Switch-On Ceremony” hosted by The Mission Inn 

Hotel & Spa and the Greater Riverside Chambers of 

Commerce. Gather at Mission Inn Avenue and Orange 

Street at 4:30pm for a night to remember. 

While strolling around downtown, festival-goers 

can grab a cup of hot cocoa and warm sugared donuts, 

purchase one-of-a-kind presents or dine at a unique 

restaurant. 

Added to the line-up again this year will be several 

local artists out on Main Street with demonstrations 

of their artwork and opportunities to purchase a truly 

unique gift. The incorporation of these local artists is 

something that has made Riversiders very 

proud. Also added is the New Year’s Eve 

celebration at the downtown Library Plaza 

from 6-9pm. 

The Riverside Festival of Lights allows 

everyone - no matter what age - to be charged 

with wonder and anticipation of the magic of 

the holidays. Don’t miss your opportunity to 

be part of this wonderful Riverside tradition.

Arlington Winterfest 

Twinkling Lights And 

Santa To Make A Visit In 

Riverside’s Arlington Village 

Arlington Winterfest starts with holiday 

cheer and bright lights adorning the 

Christmas tree that lives in the middle of 

Arlington Park in Riverside. With last year’s success 

creating a Winter Wonderland in Arlington, 

Arlington Business Partnership is gearing up the 

holiday spirit! 

Holiday cheer in Arlington begins on 

December 5 with the traditional Tree Lighting 

Ceremony taking place at Arlington Park, 3860 

Van Buren Blvd., in Riverside. Arlington Winterfest 

will house activities and holiday sights for 

all ages. Some activities include the annual tree 

lighting, holiday carols and crafts, a BBQ dinner 

and various sweet treats available for purchase. 

This will be the first opportunity to take photos 

with Santa. 

The Arlington Winterfest tree lighting event 

will be from 4pm to 9pm. Everyone is invited 

to experience other holiday inspired surprises 

Arlington Business Partnership has in store. 

Apart from Santa parking his reindeer for 

photos at Arlington Park, there will be more 

opportunities to take photos with Santa in the 

Arlington Business District. Dates include Dec. 

12 at McDonald’s located at 5010 Van Buren 

Blvd. and Dec. 19 at the Magnolia Community 

Health Center located at 9380 Magnolia Ave. 

Times for both Santa inspired camera ready moments 

are 9am to 1pm. Every child will receive 

the spirit of the holidays with a complimentary 

gift. Santa photos will be available to purchase 

at all events. 

Arlington Winterfest is hosted by the Arlington 

Business Partnership in partnership with the City 

of Riverside and businesses of the Arlington Business 

Improvement District. ABP strives to promote the 

businesses in Arlington by coordinating such community 

events in order to attract people into the area 

and encourage “Shop Riverside. Buy Arlington!” 

The District was formed by area businesses and 

community leaders who band together to establish 

the formation of the Arlington Business Improvement 

District which the Riverside City Council 

authorized in October, 2002. The mission of the 

ABP is to represent and promote Arlington businesses 

to stimulate the local economy and initiate improvement 

projects, thus creating a sense of pride for all 

who live, work and do business in Arlington. IER

‘Hope Comes Alive’ With 

Lonestar 

CBU Christmas Concert 

There’s music in the air. That’s something that 

generally happens around Christmas time in 

most places; however, it’s a little different at 

California Baptist University. 

The University Choir and Orchestra (UCO), 

directed by Dr. Judd Bonner, is hard at work 

preparing for their 10th annual Christmas concert 

titled Hope Comes Alive and their approach 

to the standard canon of Christmas music is 

different than you’ll hear on the radio. The message 

of Christmas rings louder and pierces hearts 

in a way like no other when presented by 150 

college-aged students who passionately believe 

every word they sing. 

UCO, as they are fondly referred to, performs 

regularly – roughly 60 concerts throughout the 

year – both locally and across the country, and 

in every venue in which they perform, their goal 

SINGING THEIR PASSION The California 

Baptist University Choir and Orchestra includes 150 

student voices. 

is the same – to inspire and engage the audience 

with overwhelming energy, vibrant passion, and 

musical excellence. 

This special evening of Christmas music is sure 

to do just that for you and your family, so mark

Soul Band Offers Free Music 

Workshop For Kids 

Local grammy-winning musician partners 

with Fox Riverside Theater Foundation to 

offer a FREE workshop for local students 

Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings.

Grammy Award 

winner Gabriel 

Roth was raised 

in Riverside, and has 

returned to his hometown, 

after nearly two 

decades in New York, 

to raise his family. Roth 

is concerned about the 

financial limitations of 

arts education in the 

schools and wants to 

encourage others in the 

music and recording 

industries to join him in 

offering educational enrichment to students of all ages. 

He and his fellow band members, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, 

will perform at the Riverside Municipal Auditorium (RMA) on November 

6 and will present a 90-minute music workshop at 3:30pm that 

afternoon, prior to the show. The workshop is free, and the tour is also 

offering 300 tickets to the evening show at a greatly-reduced rate of $15, 

an offer that is limited to workshop participants and their parents. 

Roth is aware that some kids won’t know the band, so he is happy to 

talk about other musicians with whom the band has worked and even 

-- with some reluctance and humility -- his Grammy awards. 

“Some kids may not know us yet,” said Roth, “but they know names 

like Jay-Z and Amy Winehouse, and they know what a Grammy statuette 

looks like.” 

The Fox Riverside Theater Foundation has accepted the role of outreach 

coordinator for the event, and aims to bring in kids, 2nd – 12th 

grade, from all over the region. The Foundation works with a network 

of schools and non-profit organizations to distribute outreach tickets 

through its Students at Broadway program, which provides tickets for 

youth to attend shows during the Fox Performing Arts Center’s Broadway 

season. The Foundation staff and board members are excited to 

partner with the band. 

“This program is an example of our outreach mission,” said Executive 

Director Cynthia Wright. “For some of these students, it is the first 

opportunity to get up close and personal with specific musical instruments; 

for others, it is an opportunity to add fuel to the fire of their 

passion for music and to hear advice from successful professionals.”

Mythbusters: Jamie Hyneman’s 

Final Performances On Tour 

At The Fox Performing Arts 

Center In Riverside 

Monday, December 7, 7pm 

Tickets On Sale Now! 

Tickets are on sale now at www.riversidelive.com 

Live Nation announced that the all-new live 

show MythBusters Jamie & Adam UN- 

LEASHED!, starring Jamie Hyneman and 

Adam Savage, co-hosts of the Emmy-nominated 

Discovery series MythBusters, debuts at the Fox 

Performing Arts Center in Riverside for one 

night only on Monday, December 7. 

MythBusters Jamie & Adam UNLEASHED! 

presents a fantastical evening of on-stage experiments, 

audience participation, exciting videos, 

and behind-the-scenes stories. With this show, 

16 


fans join Jamie and Adam onstage to assist in 

their mind-blowing and mind-twisting approaches 

to science. MythBusters Jamie & Adam 

UNLEASHED! brings you face-to-face with the 

curious world of Jamie and Adam as the duo 

matches wits on stage with each other and members 

of the audience. 

Jamie Hyneman has announced that he will 

end touring with the live show this year. 

Since 2012, Jamie and Adam have toured 

North America, Australia and New Zealand 

with their live show. To date, they have performed 

in 108 cities, given 119 performances, 

over 200,000 people have seen them onstage 

and the tour has grossed over $12 million. This 

fall, the tour will perform 31 dates across the US 

and Canada. 

One of the most highly regarded and 

watched series on the Discovery Channel, 

MythBusters is now in its thirteenth season. 

Co-hosted by Hyneman and Savage, the show 

mixes scientific method with gleeful curiosity 

and plain old-fashioned ingenuity to create its 

own signature style of explosive experimentation 

– and the supporting or de-bunking of urban 

myths that we live with day to day. 

Jamie Hyneman is the owner of M5 

Industries, an effects company specializing in 

problematic custom builds. Besides serving as 

headquarters of MythBusters, M5 continues 


to work on various research and development 

projects for private clients. After trying his hand 

at careers as various as librarian at the United 

Nations in Geneva to running a diving and sailing 

charter business in the Caribbean, Hyneman 

began his career in show business as special effects 

shop assistant in New York and later in San 

Francisco as a crew member on films including 

Robocop, Arachnophobia and Naked Lunch. 

While managing Colossal Pictures’ model 

shop in San Francisco, Hyneman was given the 

opportunity to take over – and M5 Industries 

was born. Hyneman graduated from Indiana 

University with a degree in Russian. He has 

received an honorary engineering degree from 

the University of Maine as well as an honorary 

doctorate of engineering from Villanova 

University, with whom he has an ongoing 

collaborative relationship to help develop new 

safety concepts for the military. He is the holder 

of several patents and the winner of numerous 

industry awards. 

Adam Savage received a call from Jamie 

Hyneman in 2002 to participate in a demo for a 

TV show, which turned into the wildly popular 

Discovery Channel & SBS series MythBusters. 

Savage immersed himself in the NYC arts scene 

before moving to San Francisco in 1990 to 

parlay his skills into the thriving theater scene. 

There he worked for dozens of companies as set 

designer, prop master, art director and producer 

before falling into the machine art community 

where he learned welding, pneumatics, hydraulics, 

electronics, and robot-building. 

After exhibiting his work in over 50 art 

shows nationwide, Savage caught the eye of the 

special effects industry and began working as 

a prop builder and art director for major commercials 

for Sega, Coca-Cola, Nike, Burger King 

and Chevrolet. His work on a Coca-Cola commercial 

earned him a Clio Award nomination. 

After a 18-month stint as head of research & 

development for startup toy company ZOOB, 

Savage joined George Lucas’ Industrial Light 

and Magic. IER

RIVERSIDE COMMUNITY PLAYERS PRESENTS 

One Moment Changes Everything In 

Riverside Community Players’ Almost Maine 

Riverside Community Players presents the 

second show in their 91 st season with the 

touching and charming play Almost Maine 

by John Cariani, directed by Kathryn Gage. 

It is January in northern Maine where the 

average temperature is 9 degrees Fahrenheit and 

the average winter snowfall is 115 inches. While 

the town of Almost is a mythical composite of 

several northern Maine towns, the plights of 

its residents are very real. Several of them are 

about to experience a big epiphany, something 

that really only comes when people actually 

listen to and hear each other. 

During one night in Almost, Maine, nine 

magical moments are about to happen. They 

will happen simultaneously at nine o’clock under 

the big sky illuminated by the amazing spectacle 

of the aurora borealis. As the playwright 

himself describes it – “This play is all about one 

moment in time – what happens to people in a 

heartbeat. It is a play about real people who are 

really, truly, honestly dealing with the toughest 

thing there is to deal with in life: love.” 

Show dates and times are: Nov. 13, 14, 19, 

20, 21, 27, 28, 2015 at 8pm and Nov. 15, 22, 

28, 29, 2015 at 2pm. For tickets and reservations

This holiday season Riverside Community 

Players make their annual pilgrimage to 

Victorian England as they present the classic tale 

of Ebenezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol written 

by Charles Dickens and directed by Michael 

Charles. 

This enduring story of transformation and 

redemption unfolds on Christmas Eve. Mr. 

Scrooge, a miserly and seemingly unfeeling sort 

of fellow, receives a visit from his dead partner, 

Jacob Marley. Mr. Marley tells Ebenezer that 

he will be visited by three spirits. These ghosts 

of Christmas past, present and what is yet to be 

hold the key to Ebenezer’s future. 

A Christmas Carol runs from Dec. 11 to Dec. 

20. Evening performances are the 11 th , 12 th , 18 th 

and 19 th , at 7pm. Matinees are the 12 th , 13 th , 

19 th and 20 th , at 2pm.

2015 Christmas Jubilee Tour Comes To Highland 

Following three straight years of tremendous 

success, IMC Management has announced 

plans for the 2015 Christmas Jubilee Tour. 

The Jubilee Tour features three of Southern Gospel 

Music’s most recognized artists, The Booth 

Brothers, Greater Vision, and Legacy Five. 

The 2015 Christmas Jubilee Tour will begin 

November 30 and feature 15 concerts. It has 

been two years since the Jubilee Christmas Tour 

made stops along the West Coast, and this year 

the event will return to Idaho, Washington, 

Oregon and California, including a stop on 

Monday, December 14 at Immanuel Baptist 

Church in Highland. 

What began as a light-hearted lunch conversation 

between three friends has become one 

of the most popular concert tours in Gospel 

Music. Managed and promoted exclusively by 

IMC Management, The Jubilee Tour brings three 

of the most popular names in Southern Gospel 

Music together for a unique and unforgettable 

concert experience. The event has proven to be 

very popular in cities across North America, 

with sell-out concert attendance in numerous 

cities in recent years. 

The evening allows each group to be featured 

during the first half of the program, then the 

second half brings the three groups together for a 

Jubilee spectacular filled with Christmas classics. 

The unscripted and spontaneous format is both 

entertaining and inspirational, providing audiences 

with a most enjoyable, must-see evening. 

The Jubilee Christmas Tour concert features

recordings and have delighted crowds throughout 

the Holiday season. Since that first year in

music lovers throughout North America. This 

year promises to bring more Holiday cheer.

the West Coast,” IMC President Landon Beene 

states. “In 2013, the Tour enjoyed multiple

Gospel Music in nearly a decade, so we know 

Gospel Music lovers on the West Coast will 

be excited that the Christmas Jubilee Tour is 

returning.” 

The Christmas Jubilee Tour stop in Highland 

on Monday, December 14 at Immanuel Baptist 

Church, located at 28355 East Baseline, will 

begin at 7pm. Doors will open at 6pm for this

Christmas With The Nelsons 

November 21 

Christmas With The Nelsons 

tells the story of three family 

Christmases in the lives of 

America’s Favorite Family- 

The Nelsons. This heartwarming 

multi-media live 

concert experience stars the 

third generation of #1 Nelson 

Family hitmakers, Matthew 

and Gunnar Nelson. 

A genuine blend of Everly 

Brothers-style harmonies 

and Smothers Brothers-style 

comedy, multi-platinum recording 

artists Matthew and 

Gunnar have been thrilling 

sellout audiences world-wide 

for the past decade with their 

high-integrity Ricky Nelson Remembered show… and they’ve got a new 

gift for you to open. Not merely a rock concert with a few holiday songs 

thrown in… Christmas With The Nelsons delivers Christmas Classics 

the Nelson Family way. Interweaving quick humor, soaring sibling 

vocals, and state of the art big screen video, Matthew and Gunnar’s 

completely new show will take you on a sleigh ride through time. From 

the Holly Jolly 50’s when their father Ricky was a little boy intent on 

duct-taping antlers on the family cat… …to the 70’s when Santa Claus 

Came To Town delivering Schwinns for the Twins in the era before bike 

helmets (THAT explains a lot) to Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree 

today with the newest generation of Nelson Family kids who prove that 

yes we DID in fact turn out to be just like our parents after all. 

Desperado: The Premiere 

Eagles Tribute November 27 

Desperado’s line up is powerful 

and entertaining, and promises 

to be the finest Eagles experience 

to be had, outside of an 

actual Eagles concert. With their 

exciting stage and visual presence, 

world class guitar work, 

rock solid rhythm section, and 

dynamic vocal work, Desperado 

satisfies their audiences with a Big Stage quality experience. As you 

experience this band performing, you realize that you are in the presence 

of a group of extremely accomplished and well seasoned. 

Orgy December 5 

Orgy emerged in the 

Goth music scene in 

1998 with their incredible 

remake of “Blue 

Monday.” The track sold 

over 1 million copies 

and built a worldwide 

audience for the brand. 

In late 2005 the band 

went on a hiatus to work 

on side projects. In 2011, after seven years of demand from fans for new 

music and a tour, founding member Jay Gordon (vocals) decided it was 

time to kick things back up and begin recording and touring again in 

support of Orgy’s fans.

Comedic Classic ‘Tartuffe’ Opens At CSUSB Nov. 13 

A Provocative Take On A Comedic Classic 

Cal State San Bernardino’s Theatre Arts Department in November 

will kick off its 50 th Anniversary main stage season with a wickedly 

powerful and provocative take on an old tale, Tartuffe, by Molière. 

This comedic classic from 1664 was the center of great controversy and 

censorship upon its release, and has now been masterfully adapted by David 

Ball, making it just as relevant and poignant as the day it first debuted. 

Tickets Now Online For 

Calimesa Christmas Concert 

Internet ticket sales for the 

annual Christmas Concert 

sponsored by Calimesa Community 

Concerts are underway. 

The Gary Bonner Singers and 

Orchestra will be featured in three 

concerts on Dec. 18 and 19 at the 

Calimesa Seventh-day Adventist 

Church. 

The concert, titled Bethlehem 

Skies, is a return engagement for 

the musicians. Dr. Bob Soderblom, 

founding director of the 

Calimesa concerts, notes the 

Bonner groups have previously 

made several sold-out appearances 

in Calimesa. 

The concert series is currently 

in its 30 th season. Its annual 

Christmas concert is known as the 

Candlelight Festival of Music and 

Lights. 

As before, this year’s concert 

will be directed by Dr. Gary Bonner, 

internationally recognized 

as a musician and a leader in 

advancing Christian choral music 

performance. He was the founding 

dean of the schools of music at 

Azusa Pacific University and later 

at California Baptist University, 

where he was honored as the university’s 

outstanding professor. He 

retired from CBU in 2012. 

Bonner launched the Gary 

Bonner Singers in 

1995. Acclaimed for 

their musical versatility, 

sparkling performance, 

and “warm, vibrant 

choral tone,” they have completed 

21 recordings. The 60-voice 

ensemble’s most recent recording, 

Legacy Christmas in Concert, is 

the live recording of their 2013 

Christmas concert. A full orchestra 

will accompany the singers in all 

three Calimesa performances. 

This year’s Calimesa concerts 

are at 6pm Friday, Dec.18, and on 

Dec. 19 at 4pm and 6pm. Tickets 

are $15, $10, $8, and $5. Tickets 

can be ordered online from 

iTickets.com or by phone at (800) 

965-9324. 

No tickets will be sold at the 

door, and pre-ordered tickets are 

nonrefundable. 

All three concerts are at the 

Calimesa Seventh-day Adventist 

Church, 391 Myrtlewood Dr. (4 th 

and Myrtlewood) in Calimesa. 

The church is chosen to host the 

community concert each Christmas 

partly because of its long 

tradition of beautiful lighting and 

decoration to honor the religious 

holiday, Soderblom said. 

“Early ticket orders have the 

best choice of seating for all three 

concerts,” he adds. 

A dedicated telephone line 

provides recorded information 

and directions for the concert at 

(909) 795-4960. IER 

Tartuffe last graced the CSUSB stage in 1990 when then-department 

chair Ron Barnes, for whom the theatre was named, directed the classic. 

Barnes was a founding faculty member when the college opened in 1965 

and founded the theatre arts department 43 years ago in 1972. 

It’s the late 1960s, and Orgon, a wealthy family man, has taken in a 

stranger by the name of Tartuffe. Tartuffe appears to be an extremely pious 

and devout man of religion, and Orgon regards him almost as a saint. Offering 

the stranger his best food and drink, Orgon places the needs of his 

guest above those of his wife and children, who believe Tartuffe is nothing 

more than a con man who pretends to be of the highest moral authority, 

but does not practice what he preaches. 

Brimming with music, costumes, props and scenery from the 1960s, 

this unique take on Tartuffe will be directed by theatre department chair 

Terry Donovan Smith. Tartuffe opens Nov. 13-22, with eight performances 

at 8pm each night and 2pm matinee performances on Nov. 15, 21 

and 22. 

The show will then move to the Palm Desert Campus for three additional 

performances the weekend of Dec. 5. 

Individual and season tickets may be purchased from the CSUSB Theatre 

Arts Box Office by phone at (909) 537-5884, or online at theatre.csusb. 

edu. Tickets are $6 for students and children under 17; $12 for faculty, 

staff, senior citizens and military; $15 for adults. Performances take place 

in the Ronald E. Barnes Theatre on the CSUSB campus. Parking at 

CSUSB is $6 Monday-Friday and $3 on the weekend. IER

It is Christmas Eve, but the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge celebrates no holidays. As 

usual, he walks home from his office through the heavy fog to the large, empty 

building where he resides alone. Alone, however, is not what he will be this night. At 

his front door Scrooge encounters the ghostly face of his dead partner, Jacob Marley, 

and will soon learn that Jacob has plans for Scrooge to receive three more visitors 

this very evening - visitors who will transform his life. 

Sorry, no children under 5 are admitted

CATS Presents Original Adaptation 

Of ‘A Christmas Carol’ 

The Community Arts Theater Society of Big 

Bear Valley (CATS) presents its original 

stage adaptation of A Christmas Carol, 

opening Friday, Nov. 13 at the Big Bear Lake 

Performing Arts Center. The show plays a total 

of 11 performances with 7:30pm shows on Nov. 

13, 14, 18, 20, 21, 24, 27 and 28 and 1:30pm 

matinees on Nov. 15, 22 and 29. 

All performances are reserved seating and 

prices range from $17 to $29 for Adults, 

$16 to $27 for Seniors and $11 to $20 for 

Students/ Children, depending on date and 

location of seats. 

Tickets are now on sale through the 

CATS website at www.bigbeartheater.org or 

at the PAC Box office at 909-866-4970. 

This new adaptation of the Charles 

Dickens classic was specially adapted for 

CATS by its director, Karen Sargent Rachels, 

and was originally presented in 2009. 

Rachels was inspired by a chance remark 

from an Antiques Roadshow appraiser of a 

letter written by Charles Dickens, telling a 

member of Royalty that he, himself, was unable 

to procure tickets to one of his sold-out concert 

readings for her. The Roadshow appraiser 

mentioned that tickets to a Dickens reading was 

like trying to get tickets to a Bruce Springsteen 

concert today. 

Further research indicated that Dickens 

made two trips to America, also doing a series of 

concert readings of his works. From this premise, 

this CATS adaptation of A Christmas Carol, 

The CATS adaptation features 

a real-life encounter of 

Dickens and a young Mark 

Twain as well as other twists 

on this old classic. 

featuring the on-stage character of Charles 

Dickens, was born. 

The CATS adaptation also features a real-life 

encounter of Dickens and a young Mark Twain 

in 1868 at Steinway Hall in New York. 

Because of Dickens’ on-stage narration, 

much of his original book-narrative is retained 

in this version, and is brought to life on the 

PAC revolving stage by a cast of over 60 actors 

of all ages. It promises to be a special delight to 

tried-and-true Dickens fans. 

Another CATS innovation for this stage production 

is the involvement of the Clock Sprites, 

a group of mischievous sprites who live in The 

Clock and help the spirits redeem Mr. Scrooge. 

CATS is well known for the quality of its 

productions and will feature original sets designed 

by Joanne McMaster and re-built by Bob 

Perry and his crew. Karen Sargent Rachels is 

Director-Producer, with Karen Bergmann as 

Associate Producer. Costumes are designed 

by Priscilla Anderson with Lighting Design 

by Joanne McMaster and Melinda Garcia. 

Garcia is also Assistant To The Producer and 

Adam McDonald is Production Coordinator. 

This CATS production of A Christmas 

Carol is “back by popular demand,” after 

an overwhelming reaction to its production 

four years ago. This year Robin Field, 

who played Scrooge for CATS in the last 

production, will star as Dickens. Director 

Rachels says: “We realized that the timeless 

and inspiring story of A Christmas Carol could 

be presented traditionally every few years or 

so. This original play with music is faithful to 

Dickens, and we wanted to make sure the show 

would hold some surprises for our repeat patrons 

and newcomers as well. It is a very special 

play with music, filled with holiday magic for 

the whole family. I think this original adaptation 

and new production will bring its own special 

magic to our holiday season this year.” IER

KICKS OFF THE HOLIDAYS AT 

THE FAIRPLEX IN POMONA 

Nothing gets you in the holiday spirit like a trip to the Pomona Harvest 

Festival Original Art & Craft Show at the Fairplex, Dec. 4-6, where more 

than 300 exhibitors ring in the season with dazzling, handcrafted items for 

everyone on your shopping list. Aglow in holiday décor, the Fairplex becomes a 

winter wonderland for the holiday “shop fest” of the season, complete with live 

entertainment, contests, strolling performers, a Kidzone, and more.

handmade originals ranging from stunning jewelry, photography, clothing and

and much more, all at unbeatable prices. Patrons who bring non-perishables for 

donation to the Foothill Family Shelter will receive $2 off admission. Tickets are 

good for the entire weekend. 

Local Corona artists are among the hundreds showcasing their creations. 

Cheryl Bechtold of “Pillow Picasso” specializes in custom-made bedding. Her 

hand painted holiday pillow covers and table runners are a blend of fabrics and 

textures, each one a unique masterpiece. “I especially enjoy visiting with the 

Festival patrons,” says Bechtold. “Sometimes they even send me pictures of how 

my pieces look in their homes.” Katie Knight of “Unique Bottle Candles” gets 

creative with repurposed bottles, hand cut bottles and wind chimes. 

The celebration includes a creative oasis for the young at heart where Macaroni 

Kid presents free interactive “make ‘n’ take” crafts and Home Depot of 

Chino hosts personalized instruction and assembly of pint-sized toolboxes kids 

can keep as a free memento. Parents will also appreciate the free digital fingerprint 

Child ID services courtesy of New York Life. Priceless Pets will have a host of four 

legged friends available outside for adoption.

Moving Again 

This old Volvo keeps packing up 

them miles. I never thought I’d miss 

Minnesota’s rolling hills. All I see is 

cornfield and highway. The land flattens. 

More corn. Forever cornfields. Then 

desert. I park on the side of the road to 

sleep as the trucks rumble by. A highway 

patrol stops. “Just resting. I’ll be on my 

way now.” Morning rises behind me 

as the mountains rise in front of me. 

California. My new home.
