EPACENTER expanded its mission to include the broader East Palo Alto community and will offer arts-related job training and arts programs to people of all ages and abilities. The organization will continue youth programming while adding daytime classes for seniors, adults with developmental disabilities, and other underserved community members. EPACENTER will present a regular series of free public events, including family-friendly movie nights, live concerts, and Family Art days, with events listed on EPACENTER.org. Separately, Sunnyvale and Mountain View residents can pick up certified organic compost and mulch at two Sunnyvale locations, up to 200 gallons per person per week; the sites are open daily and require bringing a shovel and container.
The nonprofit's board of trustees this month expanded its mission statement to include the East Palo Alto community at large. Our community has been telling us they would like access to amenities enjoyed by other neighboring cities, and we took that feedback seriously, with our board of directors determining in May to explore how to expand our offerings to additional constituents, EPACENTER's Executive Director Nadine Rambeau said in a release.
Compost pickup While Sunnyvale and Mountain View residents can still pick up free compost and mulch at the Sunnyvale SMaRT Station at 301 Carl Road, there's now a second pickup location at Charles Street Gardens, 433 Charles St. in Sunnyvale. This compost is organic, made from local yard trimmings, and certified by the U.S. Composting Council. Residents can pick up as much as 200 gallons per person per week in the gardens' parking lot. The site is open daily. Bring your own shovel and container.
