Join other UCLA alumni, friends, and families for a $30 watercolor class fundraiser in beautiful Heisler Park in Laguna Beach. No experience is needed. High-quality supplies will be provided for use during the event. Each participant will take home their own plein-air watercolor painting on high-quality cotton watercolor paper, and a color theory practice sheet. A bring-your-own picnic will follow after! This is more than a paint-along class. Participants will get hands-on access to rare and historic pigments that are usually too expensive for casual use, including Egyptian Blue, medieval frit(smalt), genuine Lapis Lazuli, Periwinkle phthalo blue, Benzimidazolone Blue, and genuine Quinacridone Gold PO49. We’ll explore the science and history behind these colors: Egyptian blue as the first known synthetic pigment and a material still studied for near-infrared luminescence; smalt as a cobalt-glass pigment; lapis lazuli as one of art history’s most prized blues; and modern pigments that changed what artists can do with transparency, staining, glow, and intensity. This will be a brief crash-course in pigment science and history, including the science behind why AI can’t replace physical art! Participants will also browse examples of watercolor styles—from realistic landscapes and botanical illustrations to modern abstraction, travel sketching, greeting-card art, and fun crafts—before painting from the ocean, cliffs, gardens, and architecture around us. Come paint by the coast, meet fellow Bruins, try rare pigments, and learn why handmade art still has optical and material qualities that screens and AI can imitate, but not physically replace. Your $30 registration includes supplies and supports future OC Bruins community events. PLEASE NOTE: No Refunds: Unfortunately, we don’t have the ability to offer refunds for this fundraiser or to help transfer your reservation. If you would like to give your reservation to someone else, please email us their name so we can add them to the registration list. What’s included: Your $30 registration includes use of high-quality watercolor supplies during the workshop, including shared access to rare, historic, discontinued, and specialty pigments. Each participant will take home their finished plein-air watercolor painting, and their color-theory practice sheet. Please note that palettes, brushes, pigment samples, books, and demonstration materials are provided for shared class use only and will remain with the instructor so they can be used for future OC Bruin art events.

As a first-generation immigrant, career coach Ricky Koo was taught to work hard, stay humble and let results speak. Sound familiar? Here’s the thing: You can be great at your job and still be misunderstood, overlooked or underestimated. In this webinar, Ricky Koo—a first-generation immigrant who rose through the ranks to become a corporate executive before building his own professional coaching business— breaks down what actually shapes how you’re perceived at work, and how to take control of your professional narrative without being fake, loud or political in ways that feel misaligned. This isn’t about self-promotion. It’s about self-definition. In this webinar, you’ll learn how to: • Define your professional brand clearly—so others stop guessing your value or mislabeling your intent • Advocate for yourself without feeling awkward or “bragging”, even if you’ve been taught to keep your head down • Navigate workplace dynamics with confidence, instead of pretending they don’t exist (because ignoring them is a strategy—and usually a costly one) • Stay grounded in your worth during high-pressure moments, so stress, feedback or hierarchy don’t shake how you show up Regardless of your career level or what industry you work in, this session can help you develop your skills in self advocacy and intentional branding, refine your voice and create lasting impact.

Malachi Whitson, drums Kai Lyons, guitar David Michael Otis, alto sax Ben Williams, bass Drummer, composer, educator, and community builder Malachi Whitson creates boundary-defying jazz rooted in the deep traditions of the Black Music canon–blues, gospel, swing, bebop–while simultaneously incorporating West African polyrhythms and Afro-Caribbean grooves. A passionate drummer since childhood, Whitson approaches the drums as not only an instrument, but a way of listening, connecting, and imagining a more vibrant world. Originally from the Bay Area and now based in Los Angeles, Whitson brings his new quartet to the JazzPOP stage to create music that connects ancestral echoes with contemporary voices in a sound that is unmistakably their own.

She is a creative consultant who has worked with Disney Imagineering and leading design agencies to craft immersive, place-based stories.

More Than a Trophy - A Lasting Legacy Join Bruin Affiliates for our September luncheon as Cori Close shares her experience coaching a winning team and her approach to carrying it forward. Cori coached the UCLA women’s basketball team to its first- ever NCAA championship last season, and shares the credit with her outstanding woman’s team that exemplified resilience, toughness and a strong bond that held them together during the remarkable season. Mentored by the legendary John Wooden, she has instilled values that brought the team to national recognition. “It’s not about any one of us — it’s about what we build together.” Close has built an extraordinary legacy at UCLA since taking over as head coach in 2011, compiling a 321-143 record and becoming the program's all-time winningest coach. Her crowning achievement came in 2026 when she led the Bruins to their first-ever women's basketball national championship, going 37-1 and routing South Carolina 79-51 in the title game, capping back-to-back Big Ten Tournament titles in 2025 and 2026. Along the way she swept all four major national Coach of the Year awards in 2024-25, developed seven WNBA draft picks, and received the 2024 WBCA Carol Eckman Integrity in Coaching Award — earning a contract extension through the 2029-30 season in recognition of her sustained excellence both on and off the court.
