Programming Calendar

Croix Estate Winery was founded by Jason Williams and acclaimed winemaker Kirk Venge, whose roots in winemaking trace back generations in Napa Valley. Williams began concepting the winery in 2009, leading to its first vintage in 2012 and the transformation of its Russian River Valley home. Venge, who also owns Venge Vineyards and consults for top Napa producers, brought a vision of minimal-intervention winemaking rooted in Sonoma’s premier vineyard sites. Together, they’ve built a brand defined by rustic luxury, sustainability, and a deep respect for the land.

Come enjoy Vinyl rarities and all time favorite Beatles songs, including solo works and later collaborations from the Fab Four and their friends.

The images in this exhibit were captured at Salt Point which is a short distance down Highway 1 from Sea Ranch.  The stone photographs focus both on the tafoni right at the shore which are porous sandstone formations carved by the wind and on the harder surfaced rocks farther inland which have been overwhelmed by lichen.  Contrasting in what they evoke, both types of rock present memorable patterning. 

The tafoni sometimes have wild patterns of divots which look like faces; sometimes the divots are all bunched together and then broken up by areas of unmarred flat rock creating abstract sculptural forms.

The lichen covered rocks are subtler; the patterning on the surface can look like spots on a hide and when the rocks are surrounded by grasses, they appear to be slithering through the grass like preying animals.

Both the tafoni and the lichen covered rocks make a case for taking the time to look down, not just at the broader view.  But there are also broader view images of the pastoral fields up the hill from the tafoni in which the rocks line up as though carefully placed by human hands.  The one tree image in the exhibit is from a bit farther down Highway

Join us at The Sea Ranch Lodge for an unforgettable experience. Tap into new levels of joy as you open your heart and tune into your senses during an ancestral Cacao Ceremony led by Charlotte Keane and Heart Opening yoga session led by Shoshana Hebshi.

The ceremonial cacao drink will be prepared and consumed in the ritual shared by Charlotte’s ancestors. As a plant medicine, cacao itself calls us to share her loving energy with others. Paired with drums, rattles, and movement you will be able to tap into new levels of joy and exhilaration. Priestess Charlotte brings ritual and ceremonial customs from her family in Mexico, Central and South America. She is a healer, shaman, curandera, and ordained priestess in the Order of the Magdalene. Shoshana is the founder and owner of Revolution Yoga in Santa Rosa.
