Second Tuesday Speaker Series on October 13 features Redlander Shelli Stockton

At her program titled “Who is the University of Redlands in 2026?”, Stockton will attempt to clear up some possible unclear perceptions about the University of Redlands. “People don’t seem to know UR as well as they think they do,” Stockton said. “It’s considered a Liberal Arts College, but I would have to say, it’s neither liberal nor strictly about the arts.” At the talk, Stockton will address the university’s newest initiatives, such as the merger with a school in Burbank. “This merger enables us to offer degrees in architecture, interior design, and fashion design,” she said. Stockton co-chairs the Redlands Forum program which brings extraordinary and ordinary people to Redlands to share extraordinary stories and ideas. To attend the October 13 program, register at www.redlandsconservancy.org/second-tuesday-speaker-series/. A refundable $5 deposit is required at registration: it will be refunded at check-in.

Ranchers, Robbers, and Stage Coaches
on Live Oak Canyon Road

It's all true, but it was a century ago. The history of Live Oak Canyon will be the topic for the October 10 program at Gateway Ranch. From the travels of the regional indigenous people, California's Mission history, and the rancho period, to the Anglo period of the 1850s, Live Oak Canyon has seen history happen. Presenter Sherli Leonard, Redlands Conservancy's executive director, will lead guests on the time travel through the 1800s and 1900s in Live Oak Canyon, the five-mile route between today's I-10 freeway and San Timoteo Canyon, and will tell how Redlands Conservancy saved the canyon from development. The program is free and open to the public at 31313 Live Oak Canyon Road in Redlands. Registration is required at

The Gates are open at Historic Asistencia this Sunday, October 4, 1-4pm

On most Sunday afternoons, curious people can stroll through the big wooden gates at Historic Asistencia, 26930 Barton Road in Redlands. Asistencia, with its distinctive Mission style buildings and grounds, is a re-creation of the San Gabriel Mission outpost of the 1820s and 30s. Today, it is the home of Redlands Conservancy which welcomes Redlands' residents and visitors to visit. This week, visitors can follow the QR code to learn about the site's long history and role in Redlands' history, they can check out the mini-museum in the north wing, sit quietly in the chapel, and visit Barton Hall to learn about Judson-Brown Preserve, Redlands Conservancy's first conserved property. Or, they can just bring their picnic and enjoy the shade of the elm trees. Gates open at 1pm. No registration is necessary.
