Wednesday Gazette: October 30, 2024
Hello Riverside, and Happy Wednesday!
Today, we're opening our second annual Reader Survey. If you're a regular reader, you know I love feedback, and this survey is a great way for our team to get measurable feedback in mass directly from the people we're working to serveâyou!
I want to know what you like about The Raincross Gazette and what we can do better. Your participation in this survey will be mutually beneficial: I get to hear directly from you, and you get a Gazette whose future is shaped by your input to better serve Riverside.
This anonymous survey will take approximately 5-8 minutes, so I am excited that each subscriber who participates will be entered in a giveaway to win a gift basket with a $100 gift card from Ampersand Gifts and Goods in the Riverside Plaza.
Thank you for your time spent on this survey, and thank you in advance for bearing with me as I will continue reminding you to participate in the coming weeks before the survey closes on November 11 at midnight.

Community relationships are a critical part of CBU's commitment to graduating work-ready professionals.
California Baptist University partnered with Riverside architectural firm Ruhanu Clarke for âCareers By Design.â The Architecture Month event connected students in the architecture, graphic, and interior design programs with working professionals in those fields.
Question and answer sessions held on campus and student tours of the Ruhanu Clarke studios in Downtown Riverside gave prospective architects and designers a complete preview of what the day-to-day for professionals looks like, as well as answers to student questions.
Ruhanu Clarke has served Southern California for over 70 years. The firm specializes in large public projects, with a particular emphasis on schools. Recent local projects include the upgrades to Arlington High School and Convention Square. Three former CBU students are currently employed at Ruhanu Clarke.

The exhibition is up for a couple more months and offers a deep dive into the many techniques and media of the masterful Chicana artist.
It wouldn't be unimaginable to think the Yolanda LĂłpez show at the Cheech is a group show. From the sheer size of the collection to the diversity of techniques and materials, the solo exhibit takes up a lot of space, being both aesthetically varied and physically large. The whole second floor of the museum is dedicated to her work, from large-scale portraits in both paint and charcoal to street photography and political flyers.
Yolanda M. LĂłpez was born in 1942 in San Diego. After completing high school, she moved to San Francisco, where she attended college and became active in the social movements that swept the Bay Area in the 1960s. Yolanda LĂłpez played an important role in creating the aesthetic of the Chicano cultural movement of the 1970s and 80s. Along with creating some of the most recognizable and celebrated works of the era, she is also considered important in the feminization of the movement. Those two elements, femininity and Chicano identity, sit plainly at the forefront of what she did, creating the lens by which to view her work.
