Join us for a moving and thought-provoking program with two stunning interpretations of Magnificat - the first by Antonio Vivaldi and then by Dale Trumbore – along with seasonal Christmas carols and choral favorites by John Rutter, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Arvo Pärt, John Gardner, and Tomás Luis de Victoria performed in the beauty of St. Peter’s Chapel.

Embark with Dr. Rob Hoffman of the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory on a historical journey spanning eight decades, from a pivotal amphibious operation in the 1940s to the high desert of Nevada during the peak of the Cold War era.

Stop by Building 46, the former Mare Island Museum, for our garage sale. We are selling tools, furniture and other items that are not part of our artifact collection. The sale will take place Friday and Saturday from 9am to 3pm at 1100 Railroad Avenue on Mare Island.
