Find Your Creative Flow at Sunset Reset
Ventura Breeze
June 13, 2026
Looking for a way to wash off the workweek and tap into your creative side? Head to Ventura Harbor Village on Sunday evenings for Sunset Reset, a weekly gathering hosted by the Buenaventura Art Association. From 6 to 8 p.m., the Buenaventura Art Center opens its doors to artists and non-artists alike, offering a laid-back space to sketch, journal, or just breathe as the sun goes down over the water.
It’s more than an art session — it’s a community ritual. As the Ventura Breeze highlighted, this is a chance to decompress and find inspiration among neighbors. Whether you’re a seasoned painter or just need a calm hour with a coloring book, Sunset Reset reminds us that creativity is a form of self-care. Bring a friend, or come solo and let the harbor breeze do the rest.

VenturaVentura Surf Captures Double National Championship
Ventura Surf Soccer Club just made history — and they did it in only four years. The club became the first in Ventura County to bring home two NPL National Championships in the same season, with the Girls 2011 team (coached by Brian “Ziggy” Ziegenhagen) taking the title at the NPL National Finals. For a club that started in 2022, that’s not just a win — it’s a statement. This is the kind of achievement that puts Ventura on the map for youth sports. As reported by the Ventura Breeze, these girls didn’t just play well; they set a new standard for what’s possible here. Whether you’re a soccer family or just love seeing local kids succeed, this is a moment to celebrate. Congrats to the players, coaches, and everyone who made this dream real.
VenturaLeave Your Legacy at Harmon Canyon Preserve
If you’ve walked Harmon Canyon Preserve lately, you might have noticed something new among the oaks and sage: a set of metal leaves, each one etched with a name. They’re part of a permanent installation by local metal artist Tyronne McGrath, celebrating the native plants, wildlife, and people who’ve helped protect this open space. Right now, only a few leaves remain available. By giving $1,000 or more to Ventura Land Trust, you can add your name—or honor someone special—to this living legacy. As Ventura Breeze first reported, the sculpture is more than art; it’s a quiet marker of how our community steps up for nature. Whether you’re a regular hiker or just discovering the preserve, this is a chance to leave your mark in a place that belongs to all of us. If you’re thinking about a meaningful way to support local conservation, this might be it.
