SJC 250 Celebration Media
As our multiple SJC 250 events unfold, our media page will
eventually be filled with photos and videos from all of our events.
“Day of the Dead”
The “Day of the Dead” event, filmed on 11/1/25 at the Blas Aguilar Adobe Museum and Acjachemen Cultural Center, was so amazing! SJC is a town filled with important local and California history.
Here is a film of the highlights!
One of our SJC250 Committee members is a local winemaker from the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians, Chris Lobo. His wine brand, Native Hands, has been growing in popularity and Chris has been recently honored with an article in Wine Enthusiast linked below.
“I’m excited to share a newly published article that features Native Hands Wines. It is a true honor to be acknowledged as one of the nation’s very few Indigenous wine producers, particularly by such a reputable publication.”
