RECREATION GUIDE

HEALDSBURG

Welcome to the 2023 spring and summer edition of the Recreation Guide. We hope you have an opportunity to experience the many events, parks, programs, and services offered in Healdsburg. The Community Services team strives to provide recreational and experiential programs for all generations within the community, so whether you are 2 or 102, you are sure to find an activity that fits your interest. If you have any questions or suggestions for future program offerings, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to seeing you out in the community in the near future!

The Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT), also referred to as a “bed tax” or “room tax”, is a tax assessed to visitors staying in all lodging establishments within the city limits. In 2004, voters passed a ballot measure to ensure there would be an ongoing funding source for parks, recreation and open space by designating 10% of the TOT to fund Community Services/Parks & Recreation. An additional 2% goes to support public safety, and the remaining 2% to support affordable housing initiatives.

GALLERY SHOWCASE: LEA BLACK, PASTELS

Artist statement: As far back as I remember I have always enjoyed creating some form of art. My current passion is Soft Pastels. I was introduced to this medium when many years ago I took a class offered by local artist Joyce Powers through the City of Healdsburg’s Park and Rec department. As that class ended so did my art journey until recently when I picked it up again during COVID lockdown. While I don’t have any formal art training I have taken opportunities to educate myself in the medium as much as I could. I have taken online SRJC Older Adult Pastel classes and have also completed many online zoom workshops with extraordinarily talented artists. In the past year, I had several pieces accepted into local and national juried exhibits. I also participated in my first Open Studios weekend this past fall in Morgan Hill.
