Clothes you could wear to a Stinson bonfire or a Point Reyes meandering afternoon. Jewelry that catches the fog-filtered light. Books that are meant to read in the sun, that make you think of tides and time. Everything curated with a surfer's sense of flow, even if you've never been on a board. We stop in for the rotating art shows--each one like a new swell. One month it's photographs that feel like standing ankle‑deep in warm water. Another, paintings that hum like slack‑key guitar. Always shifting, always worth the stop. You don't have to surf. You don't even have to live by the beach. But step inside and you'll swear you can hear the Pacific breathing.

This small but loaded school caters to the young and older alike. It has a bevy of accomplished and practicing musicians; teaching drums, guitars, piano, violin, cello. I see it as a place to perhaps learn to be a multi-instrumentalist. My first inquiry to the school was answered quickly and then put in touch with it's cello instructor (the instrument I wanted to learn). I was given a complementary hour of introduction and was sold after that. I appreciated the instructor's encouragement and that he did not sugar coat the road ahead to learn; I liked the challenge of that. This school has checked off all the boxes for me to learn. It is conveniently located in not quite down town San Anselmo and has a neighborhood feel about it. It is San Anselmo's very own School of Rock and Bach!
