For 50 years people have been creating, developing, playing, painting, writing, composing, improvising and performing -- driven by passion and the love of art. I am honored to play the cards I have been given and work for our community to share Celebrating the Summer of Love! our love of and for the arts. Together, we have created a thriving Arts Center here in the redwoods. As my father said to me before he passed, “For the first time in your life you are using all of your skills and qualities to benefit your community… your love of the arts, accounting and business background, people skills and your hard work and dedication are paying off. I am proud of you!” Thanks, Mom and Dad, for providing me with the gifts and tools that allow me to pay it forward. From a rocky start during the Detroit Riots of 1967, we are indeed a blessed family that has grown to include and embrace the West Coast of California. The following pages of Sketches are a glimpse into what a special place Gualala Arts is for our community and for me personally. I am absolutely blown away by the diversity of the life that we lead. We go from hosting a great summer art program for youth, to a world-class chamber music weekend, to a rare auto show honoring some of the most creative inventors of automobile components. We then move on to celebrating the Summer of Love and my birthday with com- munity, friends and icons of the music industry, all of this rounded out with inspiring exhibits from past, present, and beyond! What do all of these things have in common and why are we doing them? For the LOVE of it! We look forward to celebrating the love and diversity of what we have all created together. I am truly humbled by the outpouring of love, kindness and creativity. I carry your love with me everyday I hope in some way that you will carry mine with you... Cheers to 50 more!

Dolphin Gallery Hours Disturbing... Wednesday - Monday The July 2017 exhibit at The Dolphin Gallery features Ron Bolander 10 am - 5 pm and his long-time friend and fellow artist Doric Jemison-Ball II who Closed Tuesday is also having his first two-person show at The Dolphin. The show’s title, “DISTURBING,” is most appropriate as both are noted for their free unorthodox creations meant to provoke thoughtful responses in Information the viewer. GualalaArts.org Bolander says, “ ‘DISTURBING’ is a show that does not pander to the taste of summer tourists. There are no pictures of lighthouses, 707-884-3896 weathered fences or barns, of Bowling Ball Beach or cows standing 39225 Highway One on a clifftop. There are no shiny, oversaturated, over edited sunsets at the beach, no glossy aluminum pictures of harbor seals, breaking waves or gamboling sheep. This show will be diametrically opposite to what one conventionally sees on the coast.” Jemison-Ball is best known for his quirky ceramic pieces, taking the traditional craft a step further by adding a variety of figures from cartoon rabbits to baby doll faces. He might even crack open a pot to reveal an interesting interior. In fact, the person who introduced him to ceramics had him smash his first 14 pots to remind him that the process of creation was more important than attachment to the piece. Since 2009, Jemison-Ball has won first place in ceramics at the an- nual Art in the Redwoods (AIR) show four times. His work stems Thrown pot with hand-built interior. Doric Jemison Ball II organically from his background more than from the two years of formal study he completed in ceramics. 4 EXHIBITIONS | GUALALA ARTS CENTER 50th Anniversary Opening Reception Exhibit Friday, July 7, 5-7 pm Exhibit remains through of the Sunday, July 30 Summer Part of the of Love Summer First edition “Joint Show” poster of from the private collection of David “Sus” Susalla.

Furthermore, the entire subject of the effects of rock on a listening audience varies considerably from listener to listener. The teen-ager just likes, the sound of the music and the feelings that the music brings out in him, while the adult still thinks of rock as a lot of noise no matter how many magazine articles they read or TV programs they see.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 22, 2016
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 22, 2016 NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AMERICAN JEWISH HISTORY EXCLUSIVE EAST COAST VENUE FOR BILL GRAHAM AND THE ROCK AND ROLL REVOLUTION The National Museum of American Jewish History (NMAJH) in Philadelphia will be the exclusive East Coast venue for Bill Graham and the Rock and Roll Revolution. The exhibition, which opens on September 16 and will run through January 16, 2017, presents the first comprehensive retrospective about the life and career of legendary rock impresario Bill Graham (1931–1991). Recognized as one of the most influential concert promoters in history, Graham played a pivotal role in the careers of iconic artists including the Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Santana, Fleetwood Mac, the Who, Led Zeppelin, the Doors, and the Rolling Stones. He conceived of rock & roll as a powerful force for supporting humanitarian causes and was instrumental in the production of milestone benefit concerts such as Live Aid (1985)—which took place in Philadelphia and London—and Human Rights Now! (1988). The Museum will be open late on Wednesday nights (until 8 pm) throughout the run of the show.* Bill Graham lived the America Dream, and helped to promote and popularize a truly American phenomenon: Rock & Roll. The exhibition illuminates how his childhood experiences as a Jewish emigrant from Nazi Germany fueled his drive and ingenuity as a cultural innovator and advocate for social justice. Born in Berlin, Graham immigrated to New York at the age of ten as part of a Red Cross effort to help Jewish children fleeing the Nazis. He went to live with a foster family in the Bronx and spent his teenage years in New York City before being drafted to fight in the Korean War.

The Vietnam war is one of the most questionable and misconstrued wars in world history and deserves continuing study for lessons that can be applied going forward. My interview with Vietnam Veteran, John Ketwig offers the vital first-hand perspective of a person who was an American soldier in Vietnam and also an activist in the VVAW. Contained in this interview is the story of John Ketwig and the lessons he learned from his Vietnam experiences. Biography John Ketwig was born in 1948 and grew up in the Finger Lakes region of western New York. As a boy he was a fan of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, and Bob Dylan and had a special interest in automobiles. He graduated from high school and in anticipation that he would soon be drafted and assigned combat duty in Vietnam, instead enlisted in the United States Army with the hope of assignment elsewhere. In September of 1967, however, he was sent to Vietnam.

Chesnut CHESNUT — FATHER ED DOWLING — PAGE 3 QUOTES “The two greatest obstacles to democracy in the United States are, first, the widespread delusion among the poor that we have a de- mocracy, and second, the chronic terror among the rich, lest we get it.” Edward Dowling, Chicago Daily News, July 28, 1941. Father Ed rejoiced that in “moving therapy from the expensive clinical couch to the low-cost coffee bar, from the inexperienced professional to the informed amateur, AA has democratized sani- ty.”1 “At one Cana Conference he commented, ‘No man thinks he’s ug- ly. If he’s fat, he thinks he looks like Taft. If he’s lanky, he thinks he looks like Lincoln.’”2 Edward Dowling, S.J., of the Queen’s Work staff, says, “Alcohol- ics Anonymous is natural; it is natural at the point where nature comes closest to the supernatural, namely in humiliations and in consequent humility. There is something spiritual about an art mu- seum or a symphony, and the Catholic Church approves of our use of them. There is something spiritual about A.A. too, and Catholic participation in it almost invariably results in poor Catholics be- coming better Catholics.” Added as an appendix to the Big Book in 1955.3 CHESNUT — FATHER ED DOWLING — PAGE 4 “‘God resists the proud, assists the humble. The shortest cut to humility is humiliations, which AA has in abundance.

  • October 11, 2015 Bill Graham and the Rock & Roll Revolution
    May 7 - October 11, 2015 Bill Graham and the Rock & Roll Revolution Bill Graham played no musical instruments, save for the occasional cow bell. He could not really sing, and he never wrote a word of a single song performed on stage, and yet he changed rock music forever. During a crucial period of cultural transformation in American history, Bill Graham “stage managed” the rock revolution. His passion reflected the ideals of a generation and his life’s work has shaped musical taste and standards around the world to this day. Born Wolodia Grajonca in Berlin on January 8, 1931, Graham came to America as a Jewish refugee at the age of eleven with nothing to his name except the clothes on his back, a few photographs of his family, and a prayer book only to become the greatest impresario in the history of rock ‘n’ roll. Though he blocked the experiences of his early childhood from his memory, the hardship he endured left indelible marks on his character. He was strong and determined—and often abrasive. His quick temper was legendary, but equally unmistakable was his charisma and his compassion. It was one of America’s most turbulent eras. The Vietnam War was raging, the civil rights movement had progressed from non-violent to militant, and the airwaves carried messages of cultural revolution. Young people, the baby boom generation, had grown increasingly disillusioned with the world around them. Rejecting the stiff and stultifying values of the postwar era, they set out to remake the world by experimenting with new ways of living, new definitions of freedom, new philosophies, and a radical new style of music.

  • Director's Book
    Director’s Book Props and costuming are more important than the set in this show. The protest posters, the flower garlands, and the wild clothes of the sixties fit in well with a psychedelic backdrop (even tie-dyed fabric). Set pieces, with the exception of the schoolhouse pillars, can be painted in bright colors textured with psychedelic designs or tie-dyed patterns. Max King’s office need only be suggested by a desk with phones and a few chairs. COSTUMES The Flower Power girls and the boys who join in their “protest” movement should wear regular school clothes initially, but as they move into their Cornstalk Festival, they may begin to wear more bizarre outfits. The girls might wear garlands around their necks and the boys tie-dyed shirts. Only the real hippies and the bikers wear the classic garb associated with their character station. The teachers, the law officers, and the bureaucrats should wear their traditional outfits, as Book by Craig Sodaro should Grandpa and Grandma McDonald “down on the farm.” Music and Lyrics by Bill Francoeur Classic “hippie” dress is tie-dyed shirts, beat-up jeans, a vest, lots of love beads, and sandals.
