SOWING SUPPORT Everyone deserves the opportunity to grow, and have access to tools that improve their quality of life. In Spanish, siembra means “to sow”—a reflection of the Siembra Latinos Fund’s mission to support educational, economic and mental health initiatives for Latino communities in Monterey County. The organization provides grants to nonprofits and public agencies that promote college and career preparation, STEM education, and economic stability—especially for immigrant women—and more. Their 8th annual celebration is hosted at CRŪ Winery in the Santa Lucia Highlands. This special reception celebrates the impact of the Latino community and the power of collective giving, featuring a delicious dinner, wine and live music by Nancy Cordiel, while honoring a local champion for empowerment (see story, p. 32). [KR] 4-6:30pm Saturday, Sept. 20. CRŪ Winery, 37500 Foothill Road, Soledad. $75. 3759712, cfmco.org/siembra2025. MORE TO TANGO Hip-hop and electronica paired with flamenco and tango might sound like an odd combination, but the Latin Grammy-nominated Los Tangueros del Oeste makes it work—seamlessly. The ensemble is steeped in the Nuevo Tango sound, combining influences of modern and classic with a mix of work from the masters of their genres. Founder Sascha Jacobsen, a bassist and composer, can trace his musical family to at least five generations, when one member performed as a bassist for the Moscow Opera in the early 19th century. He’s joined by other masters of their craft to create music that is sure to resonate with a broad audience. [EC] 7-9pm Saturday, Sept. 20. Palenke Arts, 1713 Broadway Ave., Seaside. $30. bit.ly/ TanguerosConcertSept20. Sunday, Sept. 21 POTLUCK FOR PEACE The world may be roiled in violence, but the International Peace Day Potluck, hosted by the Monterey Peace and Justice Center in honor of the annual International Day of Peace (first established unanimously by a United Nations resolution in 1981) is here. This year the event recognizes the seven mayors on the Monterey Peninsula who are members of Mayor for Peace—a network of about 8,600 mayors across 166 countries who are working toward a peaceful and nuclear-free future. The potluck will be full of good food and meaningful conversation, with special guest Jackie Cabasso, an activist for nuclear disarmament and the North American coordinator of the U.S. Mayors for Peace.
