Event Details

Celebrating Alameda Birdlife

Alameda is a birder lover’s paradise. Thousands of long-distance migrant shorebirds spend their nonbreeding season at Elsie Roemer Bird Sanctuary; endangered and threatened species such as Least Tern and Peregrine Falcon breed on opposite ends of the island; while more common birds like California Towhee and Anna’s Hummingbird populate backyards and community gardens year-round. In all, more than 200 species of bird, in an astounding variety of shape, size and color, have been documented in Alameda.

Flight Patterns celebrates the wonder of local birds through photography, drawing, painting, ceramic, print and mixed media. Curated by local birder, musician, writer Deborah Crooks, this exhibition features the work of Brice Binder, Laura (Tex) Buss, Jean Chen, Flavia Krasilchik, Rick Lewis, Mary Malec, Christopher Reiger and Dana Zed.

Exhibit Dates: March 6 – April 24
Opening Reception: Friday, March 13, 2026, 6:00-8:00pm
