Upcoming
Pizza Week
This may or may not become a thing, but let’s take a slice from other area weeklies like the Bohemian and the Pacific Sun, and dig into some deep-dish (or thin-crust) pizza. From Wednesday, Jan. 8, through Sunday, Jan. 19, area restaurants will craft specialty pizzas in Marin, Napa and Sonoma counties, which can mean they can use just about any kind of crust at all. More information and registration at northbaypizzaweek.com.
Transition Workshops
The City of Healdsburg has scheduled two Community Workshops in addition to the required five public hearings on the Transition to District Elections process. They will be Thursday, Jan. 16, at the Community Center; and Friday, Jan. 24, at the Senior Center. More information at healdsburg.gov/transition.
