He created International Guitar Night in 1995 and has released multiple albums and books on fingerstyle guitar. Italian steel-string guitarist Pino Forastiere fuses the classical, contemporary, and rock genres as he “employs a dazzling blend of slapping, tapping, strumming, altered tunings, and harmonics, combined with classical phrasing and a focus on distinct and addictive melodies” (Guitar Player). English fingerstyle guitarist Mike Dawes has developed a multifaceted repertoire of sound in his short but successful career, fusing Celtic, rock, jazz, and experimental music to create a product all his own. He has gained praise from artists like Gotye, Frank Turner, and Justin Hayward.

News You Can Use • Riverwest, Harambee and The East Side Vol 13 Issue 8 August 2014 The Riverwest Food Pantry - A Loaf of Bread, a Can of Beans and So Much More by Peggy Schulz The motto of the Riverwest Food Pantry is, “Not by bread alone.” Those four words capture the operation of the pantry, in that it strives to provide as broad a selection of fresh, prepared and canned food as possible. The motto also speaks to figurative and longer-term objectives to improve the quality of life of the pantry’s clients. Because “food insecurity” is so pervasive in Milwaukee’s neighborhoods, the immediate need for the pantry – to fill emergency gaps in a family’s food supply – likely won’t be going away anytime soon.

They include addressing the root causes of food insecurity, looking at the types of food that frequently come through the pantry and improving the diets of the pantry’s guests.
