[May] The 4th Annual Art of Letter, Word & Book exhibit is up and running (until May 30) at Odd Fellows hall, corner of Ukiah and Kasten Streets in Mendocino. Please stop by any day between 9:30 and 5 p.m. to browse the galleries. The Writers Conference “Word Journeys” installation upstairs invites your input! Please pick a card, a prompt, and some map words. Scribe your imaginary flights of mind and add to the display. Young writers: Broadside poems from Redwood Elementary Second Grade students and beautiful handmade books from Anderson Valley / Point Arena schools offer delight and inspiration. Both projects were sponsored in part by GASP / the Arts Council of Mendocino County along with the Community Foundation, Mendocino County Office of Education and the Hudson Family Trust.
You’re invited to a special event on Saturday May 21, 3:30 - 5:00 p.m. This is the Noyo River Review launch party and offers an all-ages Open Mic. Sign-ups start at 3. The Noyo River Review is an annual publication of the Mendocino Coast Writers Conference featuring prizewinning prose and poetry. We’ll pour fizzy water (or any other libation you care to donate) and offer light refreshments (please bring these early, before 3 p.m.) Allow time to browse the galleries. Karen Lewis will be on site starting at 2 in order to set up. Odd Fellows is open daily 9:30 - 5 p.m. Writers: this is a family-friendly venue and PG, discretion is advised.
