Weekender: Festivals and events for a rainy weekend

A wet weekend, Santa Cruz. But don’t worry, I have suggestions for — mostly indoor — ways to get out despite the rain.

On Saturday, Annieglass in Watsonville hosts The Good Table, a creative fundraiser where 10 decorated tables compete for your vote. Each table represents a local nonprofit or cause, and every vote cast is a contribution.

But with roughly 500 people already waiting for similar housing, the new units will meet only a fraction of the demand. Beneath a brilliant blue sky and surrounded by a growing neighborhood of model homes, officials gathered Nov. 10 to break ground on Marina Kai Apartments, a permanent supportive housing development for low-income adults with serious mental illness who are homeless or at risk of homelessness in Monterey County. "In our field we know that housing and mental health are deeply connected," said Fabricio Chombo, assistant bureau chief with the Monterey County Behavioral Health Bureau, during the ceremony. "It's difficult to focus on recovery, maintain your health, or plan for the future when you are uncertain about where you'll be sleeping at night."
