Nataliya Anon immigrated to the U.S. from Western Nataliya Anon immigrated to the U.S. from Western Ukraine 30 years ago, as a college student. Now the Tiburon resident, a mother of young children and the founder and CEO of Svitla Systems — a global software development company based in Corte Madera — devotes much of her energy to Hromada, the nonprofit she cofounded in 2017 to support the people of her homeland. Over the past year, as Ukrainians fight a war with Russia, Hromada’s mission has gained urgency. We sat down with Anon to hear about her background and her commitment to supporting the people of Ukraine. ✍️: @fullbloomday — Link in bio for details 🇺🇦
🚨flashback friday!!🚨 Nearly 102 years ago, M 🚨flashback friday!!🚨 Nearly 102 years ago, Marin County received a Christmas Day blast that shrouded Mount Tamalpais in white and left the City of Belvedere with battered-down homes and fences. In the above photo, taken in late December 1921, Mount Tam is wearing a white shawl while overlooking the damage. The thin strip of land barely above water in the background is today’s San Rafael Avenue; and the road in the foreground is Beach Road. The two-story buildings at the far right and far left not only survived the storm, but are both still standing today. So why does this area look so different now?

Well, for the next 20 or so years the area depicted in the 1921 photo remained dominated by that large bay. Then in the early 1940s, according to Pictorial History of Belvedere, “Developer Harry Allen, owner of the Belvedere Land Company, got the grand idea to fill in most of that bay and create fingers of land where waterfront homes could be built.” Today the completed project includes 234 homes that are priced into the many millions of dollars and are scenically surrounded by acres of placid water.

However, following World War II, when Allen first started asking $5,000 for a lagoon-front lot, there was considerable sales resistance. Again, according to Pictorial History of Belvedere, many a lookie-loo would leave Allen’s sales office muttering, “Who’d ever want to live in a mudflat?”
As cofounder of Marin Open Studios (MOS), Kay Carl As cofounder of Marin Open Studios (MOS), Kay Carlson has worked tirelessly to ensure this annual event promoting local artists’ work has survived — and thrived. Now in its 30th year, the 2023 event kicks off with the gallery opening and fundraiser gala at a new location, the new Sausalito Center for the Arts, followed by open studios at locations countywide the first two weekends in May. A talented artist in her own right, Carlson is a landscape painter who finds inspiration in Marin’s many scenic locales. Click the link in bio to read more.
