My name is Veronika. I live in Santa Monica with my husband who is an American and with two little daughters. I am a teacher and I hope to organize a Russian speaking preschool coop. While Santa Monica has lots of wonderful activities to offer, and there are many Russian speakers on the playgrounds, I was unable to find some structural daycare or preschool in this area in Russian. And that's what I'd like to have for my daughters. I've been teaching as long as I remember myself. :) I am a music …

As a Fullerton native, and momma to twin boys; I've found the pickings slim for getting in touch with like minded parents.  This is for parents and guardians who would like to do one better than meeting up at the playground. Events will include activities such as planting gardens, visiting farms, arts and crafts, yoga, animal sanctuaries, baking, and of course lots of park and playground time. I'd really like for this to be a guild of sorts.  One in which us parents can inspire eachother and mos …

I am starting this group because I love to scrapbook and make cards while sitting and chatting with others. I haven't been able to find a scrapbooking group specifically for the LGBT community and their friends, so I'm creating my own. I have been scrapbooking for about 3 years now, and still have a ton of my daughter's childhood pictures to do. I just became a Stampin! Up demonstrator and now spend my cropping time making cards. Join me for scrapping, crafting, and community!

Our finishing school provides workshops and training for those in the performing arts - specifically burlesque, cabaret, and circus performers. The training we provide focuses on movement, comportment, character development, and the refinement of an individual performer's acts or numbers. This group is designed for performers that are looking for a way to improve their craft without signing up for overpriced or extended classes. Everything is taught "a la carte". It's been my experience that a l …

An appreciation and performance society dedicated to enjoying the exquisitely silly light operas created by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. The Victorian era partnership of librettist W. S. Gilbert (1836–1911) and composer Arthur Sullivan (1842–1900) created fourteen comic operas between 1871 and 1896. The best of these shows became immensely popular and immediately swept across the British Empire. Produced professionally at the Savoy Theatre in London, and then by professional music halls and …
