Inspired by the Japanese tale that promises to make a wish come true to anyone who folds 1000 cranes, City Center resident and artist Paula Pietranera started the 1000 Wishes, 1000 Cranes project. She is using social media to ask people to send her their wishes which she will make into a 1000 piece Renzuru origami piece. Today she reached a 500 wishes milestone! To view Paula's art and contribute your wish, go here.

Wisdom from the Tassajara Library
Featuring a quote from a book found on the Tassajara library shelves.
“Don’t forget, there’s nothing small about ‘small acts of kindness.’ Can anyone know where the tiniest compassionate action will lead? How many people it will reach and how many lives it will change?"
