In the next week or so at SubRosa! And elsewhere!

- THIS EVENING! All are invited to a film screening of "14 Tîrmeh" at SubRosa, 703 Pacific Ave - Tuesday, July 8th at 5pm - from @rojavasc1 

Poetic and raw: life, death, and resistance
Witness and reflect on 45 years of ongoing struggle

Hosted by Rojava Solidarity Santa Cruz - @rojavasc1

Free, followed by discussion
Food and refreshments provided

"14 Tirmeh" or "July 14" is a stark and moving reflection of one of the most brutal episodes in the Turkish state's war on Kurdish identity. Through restrained visuals and powerful testimony, the film honors the resistance of Kurdish political prisoners who faced torture, repression, and death with defiant will. A meditation on memory, sacrifice, and the cost of struggle.

- Lei Po'o Wili Workshop: Flower Crown Making - Sunday July 13th / 3 - 5 p.m. with Sangita Yolanda Diaz-Houston - @redwood_lei (a class from @freeskoolsantacruz)

Location: SubRosa, 703 Pacific Avenue, Santa Cruz

"With deep roots in California, and inspired by the islands, Sangita has been leading lei making workshops since 2023, beginning under the mentorship of the late Kumu Lorraine Kaleiokalaua'e Kinnamon. At SubRosa, she will be guiding participants through the process of creating flower crowns using a traditional Hawaiian technique with locally sourced flowers and plants. In Hawaiian, this is called "lei po'o will" meaning a lei that you wear on your head created by wrapping or twisting. This experience is contextualized within traditional ecological knowledge that centers our reciprocity with nature. The intention of the workshop is to instill a sense of connection and humility for the gifts of mother earth that we are used to naming and imagining as inanimate. As we work with and recognize these gifts, in the form of leaves and blossoms, we reaffirm our dependence upon and responsibility toward the land and all beings." From @redwood_lei

This workshop is open to everyone and requires no prior experience with lei making. Please RSVP via text to (831) 750-4403 to participate and limited to 15 people.

All materials are provided, although students can bring flowers and greens to share if they would like. Donations accepted for materials cost and no one turned away for lack of funds (for real!).

Description: No Gods. No Masters. No Addictions.

This is a space for folks who are ready to face the compulsive behaviors that are throwing off balance and creating toxicity in our lives—whether you're just starting, in the middle of the journey, or have been working on it for a while.

THIS IS NOT AA.

This is about open conversations, sharing our struggles, and supporting each other through the process of healing and growth. While we focus on breaking free from compulsive behaviors, it's not just about alcohol or drugs. If you're tackling any compulsive behavior—be it work, food, gaming, or anything else—we're here for you.

You don't have to have it all figured out or be "sober" to join. We're here to share tools, skills, and approaches that have worked for us in the hope that they'll work for you too. Let's build a supportive community where we can grow together.

Whats up at SubRosa?

          It's happening at SubRosa! (All this and more!)

- Collective Creation Games – TODAY! Monday June 30th / 3 – 5 p.m. with Rami Chahine

Location: SubRosa courtyard, 703 Pacific Avenue, Santa Cruz, CA

Description: Collective creation games creates a container for creative play, critical reflection, deep sharing, making, mindfulness practices, movement, performing and game conception and design. It's a safe space where participants play art games then share & tell their personal stories, find points of connection amongst each other and transform them by working together into inclusive interactive games or experiential situations. They will try each others' propositions, reflect on them and share feedback. It's a space where video games or board games become models to think together and create real physical situations. In this sensorially stimulating space of experimentation, participants actualize their individual expression, build empathy, find group synergy and openly reflect about what makes collaboration work and what makes it fail.

NOTE: If participants are comfortable with it, the workshop can lead to participatory creative interventions on Pacific Avenue.

Materials: Bring a personal object, a sketchbook or paper and pen. Having junk and cardboard around can be very useful.

Accessibility: I'm parent to a newborn, so if someone feels under the weather it's better to not show up.

- Intro to Ecological Psychology: Relational Foundations of Self and World – TODAY! Monday June 30th / 6 – 7:30 p.m. with Lilli Specter (lilli.specter@viridis.edu)

Location: SubRosa Courtyard! 703 Pacific Avenue, Santa Cruz, CA

Description: This course explores the dynamic interplay between ecological processes and our psychological experience. By examining five core ecological principles, students will gain insight into how these same patterns shape human narratives, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. Ecopsychology invites us to move beyond the isolated self and into a deeper, more relational understanding of our place within the living world. Through this lens, we engage with both the beauty and the complexity of life on Earth—psychologically, ecologically, and ethically.

SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center, in downtown Santa Cruz, CA which is the unceded homelands of the Awaswas-speaking Ohlone people known as the Uypi, who stewarded these lands since time immemorial. Centuries of colonial violence led to the removal and displacement of the Uypi. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
