The Palo Alto Community Survey is a feedback tool that helps the City Council and City staff understand community perspectives on current services and programs, as well as unmet needs and priorities. The survey was initially sent via mail on August 13 to a random sample population of resident households. On September 15, the survey opens citywide.
The first computer program was written by a woman and the design of the first computers was inspired by the jacquard weaving loom — historical facts that are little-known today. New media and textile artist Ahree Lee will share her recent body of work which explores the interconnections between weaving and computing, and the often-overlooked but essential role of women and textiles in the development of coding, while demonstrating the interconnections between fiber-related arts and computing by guiding participants in making their own weavings. All materials provided; no experience required.
