NEWS RELEASE
REDWOOD CITY IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION
*************************
With flavors and experiences from around the world, we are thrilled to be able to share several international traditions with our community throughout the year thanks to the many different faces that call our charming Downtown neighborhood home. Check out some of the international experiences happening this month
On November 7, the San Mateo County History Museum will join Casa Circulo Cultural and the Friends of the Redwood City Public Library to present a Día de los Muertos Celebration starting at 4:00 p.m. in Courthouse Square featuring music, traditional food and a processional. A Festival of the Altar will be on display inside the museum November 2-7. Additionally, a brand-new installation debuts at Art Kiosk titled We Are Stardust on November 4 by Mexican Artist and Redwood City resident, Fernando Escartiz. The idea behind the installation is the concept of rebirth and challenges us to rethink what it means for something to die. This is Fernando’s second time exhibiting a brand-new installation at Art Kiosk following his 2019 installation titled The Dream that featured a brightly-colored alebrije figure atop the Art Kiosk building.
Plus, be sure to check out the Zoppé Italian Family Circus is running through November 21. This year’s show features unforgettable acts including classically- trained mime and actor, an unforgettable Russian Bar act, a sword balancer, an aerialist specializing in swinging trapeze, and more!
Our local businesses are the backbone of our community and the safety of our guests and businesses is one of our top priorities. As the state reopens, Redwood City businesses and guests are still expected to follow health and safety guidelines including wearing face coverings if not vaccinated.
