Poetry & Painting

Poetry Reading

I’m truly excited about this Saturday, May 8th.  We have 2 very fun and engaging activities.  First, at 2pm, we have our dear friend Katherine Hastings heading up a poetry reading, celebrating the Golden Anniversary Edition of Beatitude Magazine.  Katherine will be joined by Sonoma County Poet Laureate, Gwynn O’Gara.  The magazine was founded in 1959 by Bob Kaufman, Allen Ginsberg, John Kelley and William Margolis and helped launch the careers of many poets.  It is a loving tribute to over 50 years of North Beach poetry in San Francisco.

Painting Demo by Alfredo Tofanelli

Alfredo Tofanelli’s artwork is flowing and colorful.  Join us for a painting demonstration by Alfredo during the Art Walk  Saturday, May 8th from 4 – 7pm.  Alfredo teaches figure painting on Thursdays from the l’Atelier aux Couleur (the Petaluma Art Academy).
