In 1980 Jay Helgerson shocked the world, becoming the first person to run a marathon a week for a year—each race completed in under three hours. For the last ten years, his daughter, filmmaker Alexandra Helgerson, followed him with a camera in order to understand the eccentric man who raised her. What she gets are his projected anxieties, his struggles with physical age and emotional distress, all while he endlessly trains for the Boston Marathon. But as Jay trains, the film is nearly derailed by Alexandra’s encounter with a life threatening illness. Ultimately, AGE GROUP WINNER is an affirmation of the will to live.
Join us for a Q&A with Director Alexandra Helgerson and Natalie Rodriguez from Run SLO Club after the film.

Set in 1950’s New York, two musical gems are reimagined by director Kristine McIntyre. Ned Rorem’s Four Dialogues tracks a relationship in four vignettes from meeting to separation, while William Bolcom’s zarzuela-inspired Lucrezia is a comedic reflection of human nature.

Start your evening under Santa Barbara’s golden summer sky, wine glass in hand, before experiencing chamber music that unfolds like a perfectly framed scene. Our fellows share the musical director’s cut where every instrumental voice deserves its own spotlight—from Norman’s high-octane Gran Turismo to Tchaikovsky’s emotionally layered Piano Trio in A Minor.
Like a private screening of an award-winning film, these performances bring you so close to the action you’ll catch every nuance.
