In celebration of Black History Month (February), AEF is highlighting seven African American visual artists and one poet who are participants in our Art Changes program. All eight artists made short videos where they explained (and sometimes demonstrated) their work. Each visual artist video is accompanied by an art activity video made by two film students of color. The poetry video is accompanied by an instructional PDF slideshow.
Here’s the list of artists with a description of their video.

On Tuesday, November 19, 2024 the Alameda Rotary Club presented $19,750 in matching grants to nonprofit organizations to support the important services and support that they provide in our community. The grants were presented at a meeting at Trinity Lutheran Church, which provided its Fellowship Hall for the event. Alameda Education Foundation received a matching grant from the Alameda Rotary Club along with several other non-profits in Alameda.
The grants are “matching” because individual Rotarians can make a donation to a worthy nonprofit in our community and then have our club’s foundation “match” that amount to double their donation.
