NOVEMBER EVENTS
The exhibition had a very full final weekend and was visited by guests from all over Southern California. Renowned Poet and Publisher Glenna Luschei taught a poetry workshop at the Gallery to the theme “Where I came from—a response to photographs in English and Spanish.” A poetry reading with Santa Barbara Poet Laureate Laure-Anne Bosselaar commenced at 4 pm and had a large and enthusiastic audience.
Bubbly was uncorked at the end of the poetry reading to mark the close of an extraordinary few weeks at the Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center.
