SUMMARY:Los Tangueros del Oeste in concert
DESCRIPTION:Palenke Arts proudly presents Latin Grammy Nominees\, Los Tangueros de Oeste: a Nuevo Tango ensemble steeped in the styles of Astor Piazzolla\, Tanghetto\, Gotan Project and Bajo Fondo\, as well as the classic Tango of the Golden Era. \nFocusing on original compositions\, the group blends beats and textures from Hip-Hop and Electronica with Flamenco influences filtered through an improvisational lens. Their singular Nuevo Tango sound is cool\, impassioned\, sensuous\, seductive and utterly dance-inducing. Featuring the golden voice of singer/flutist Daniel Riera\, the piano virtuosity of up and coming pianist Diego Ramil\, the bandoneon mastery of Adrian Jost (Trio Garufa)\, the Flamenco inflected strumming of Venezuelan master guitarist Carlos Caminos and the emotionally lyrical sounds of violinist Charith Premawardhana (Classical Revolution)\, surrounded by the lush compositions of bassist/composer/bandleader Sascha Jacobsen (Trio Garufa\, The Musical Art Quintet)\, their music is as much for Tango lovers as it is an opening for all listeners into this magical world. \nLos Tangueros del Oeste will perform a mix of modern original Tango and Classic Tango from the Golden Era\, with a few masterworks by Astor Piazzolla thrown in to complete the night.

SUMMARY:San Antonio Ranch Discovery Hike
DESCRIPTION:The 586-acre San Antonio Ranch is a critical missing property in a larger regionally significant wildlife corridor between the Gabilan Range and Santa Cruz Mountains. The property is a strategic acquisition that would fill a gap between three protected ranches – Rocks Ranch\, Rancho Larios Open Space\, and the Nyland property – to create a 4\,245-acre protected landscape which is essential to the effectiveness of Caltran’s pending San Benito Wildlife Crossing over US Highway 101. \nIf not permanently protected\, the property is highly vulnerable to subdivision into ranchettes\, which would irreversibly fragment habitat and compromise wildlife movement in this already constrained landscape. We must raise $2\,800\,000 to buy the San Antonio Ranch. \nLearn more by joining one of our hikes.   Register at sanbenitolandtrust.org/ranch-days
