Lower Fellowship Hall, 14103 Saratoga Ave, Saratoga“Believe the hype! I went here based on the great reviews and I had an amazing experience. Stayed for almost two hours and it wasn't nearly enough time to immerse myself as much as I would have. I'm not exactly an art buff, nor a nature buff, but as someone who loves to travel and learn, I found so much to enjoy in this unique artwork. The audio tour accompaniment - especially getting to hear the artist himself navigate you through his work - was a great addition. The museum staff were lovely, as well.”
“They have a very nice selection of clothing! Everything is sectioned by sizing. They do have a plus size rack and a small fitting room. The store is on the smaller side but definitely one filled with hidden treasures and trinkets :) I would recommend to come early. Staff was very kind and helpful!”

3850 E Homestead Rd, Santa Clara“This time of year reminds me of the kindness that was extended to my husband, and I during his surgical procedure. The JW House provided us with a place to lay our heads, serenity, and meals that were prepared and served by wonderful volunteers. The bonus was, we had a chance to bond and connect with other families who were also at The JW House. May God bless each and every one of you for the kindnesses that was extended to us. Thank you. Merry Christmas from the Shoushtari Family.”

She’s amazing!!We love the day camps. Plenty of activities for kids and they enjoy the field trips as well. Great program.”
“It was my first day here and my first time taking any classes. I was very scared and worried that I wouldn't be able to keep up with my swim work -out class. ( I'm partially disabled ) but Diane the instructor made me feel so comfortable. The pool is a little crowded but I was able to find spot to blend in. Highly recommend for people who do physical therapy .”
