The 3D Entrepreneurs Club (3DE Club), in collaboration with DeLaveaga Elementary School, invites the community to The Next Wave — a first-of-its-kind student-led mayoral forum. Elementary school students will ask Santa Cruz mayoral candidates important questions about the city’s future and their plans for the next generation.
Moderated by Mayor Fred Keeley, this unique event is designed to encourage civic engagement, student voice, leadership, and critical thinking — giving children a meaningful opportunity to participate in an authentic community conversation.
Date & Time: Saturday, May 30, 2026 | 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM Location: DeLaveaga Elementary School (MPR Hall) | 145 Morrissey Blvd, Santa Cruz, CA 95065
