Bring the family to our outdoor concert featuring the Banana Slug String Band plus our H2Oooh So Great environmental fair with activities galore! Go green with the PJCC this summer in an afternoon filled with music, juggling, puppetry and art and science activities all about water!

It's a fiddlin' fest at the PJCC with a double dose of bluegrass notes. The evening of mountain music opens with The Wronglers (featuring Hardly Strictly Bluegrass founder Warren Hellman) to get toes tapping and spirits high, followed by the jewels of Jewgrass (a soulful mix of Klezmer and bluegrass) Margot Leverett & The Klezmer Mountain Boys. Bring a blanket, picnic and all your friends for the outdoor concert of the season.

Once a year, crafters, tinkerers, hackers, musicians, amateur scientists, robot makers, gardeners, steampunk fans, and everyone in between take over the San Mateo County Expo Center for MAKE Magazine's annual Maker Faire, a celebration of all things DIY. This year's Faire takes place this weekend, May 30 & 31. Inspired by President Obama's call to action—begin again the work of remaking America—the 2009 theme is "Re-Make America."
