I wonder if everything even is secret in their business I doubt it. I was given new people to work with and some give me their doubts and have no hope for me I can hella breathe the energy but I choose not to. As soon as they have you in their hands completely they just let you go as if you're thrown off a cliff and treat you like shit. Fantastic! Won't have as much respect as I did for them before ever again

The variety of offerings and the caliber of the facilitators are top-notch, the food is delicious and the physical space and surroundings are beautiful.

Sections in the Yuba City store are often in disarray, but that's part of the phone is digging through stuff I guess. My main issue is the volunteer employees they have helping, they are often huddled together in groups, blocking sections, and chitchatting with no concern for the customers. They are very often talking loudly, cursing and acting a fool. When my 15 year old daughter was there with our fam she was digging through some stuff one of their unkempt, looking employees started harassing my daughter, to which I had to step in once I witnessed.

The Neighborhood Center of the Arts is housed in what I'm guessing is an old hospital. Or a…read moresanitarium. It looks old and crazy, stale and, to use the parlance of fast food, melty. If it had teeth then they'd be about to drop off onto your head. The center has a wing on the far end (I don't know what other parts of the building are used for, but I've heard there's a glass studio). It's upstairs, and you can either take the stairs or the elevator. At the base of the stairs you'll see a series of totemic ceramics. Art lies ahead. The center is an expansive working art studio, as well as an open art gallery. The aim is to provide resources and art classes for adults with developmental disabilities. They work in many different mediums, including paint, photography, ceramics, weaving, computers, and pen and ink. Further information can be found on their website. They have a new exhibit every few months. Hours are 10am to 4pm. Until about 2pm the studio is active, with artists working, milling about, and attending classes. But visitors are free to step in and check out what's going on. Basically, this is my favorite gallery in the world. It's such a positive place, free of pretentions, and the work is great and presented well. The staff is very friendly, and the artists are nice and available to speak about their work. I (and my family) have a whole collection of art from here. Some of my favorite pieces that I own are from here. Once you walk inside, there are a few rooms walling the latest exhibition. Past that you get into the studio areas, where there is also more art to look at. Basically, every room has art on the walls. One time I was browsing some abstract religious icon paintings, and one of the artists came up to me and asked, "Hey, do you want to know what happened yesterday?" I said, "Yes." And he handed me the newspaper. Then walked off. Then I bought a piece of art -- a woodblock with an all-text Volvo advertisement printed on it, and sprawling on top of the text, in various mediums, are words and nonsense. My family and I recently invested in a huge painting, a collaborate effort by a few of the artists. It looks somewhat like a Basquiat. I highly recommend visiting the Neighborhood Center of the Arts. The artists produce amazing work, and it's very accessible, engaging, and enjoyable. The center does a wonderful job at cultivating their talents. A lot of care and hard work goes into the place, and their efforts are rightfully deserving of praise.

There have only…read morebeen a handful of times where the volunteers have been unfriendly, but otherwise, always cheerful and accommodating to any thing I need. As far as our local food supply is concerned, it's not always the most nutritious option, due to the lack of fresh produce and diversity of plant-based items. Likely though, people will complain if less red meat and high-starch foods were supplied vs. the healthy alternative. Prior to the pandemic, I used to feel the items were quite diverse, and was inspired by the ingredients, like spices or bone broth, extremely flavorful and healthy items I had never prepared food with before. This forced me to think outside of the box and actually changed my attitude around food altogether. I think we can bounce back as a community and make sure everyone has better access to the best foods our community has to offer. With a highly versatile and well-supported NP with extensive access to the food source and industry we can in turn help improve and expand our food choices to reflect a more consumer-conscious and sustainable local economy.
