The Daily Feast

The Daily Feast A poetry reading and book signing with Chester Arnold and Bart Schneider March 2 | 5:00pm - 6:30pm Main Gallery Join us for evening of poetry and discussion with Altered Worlds exhibition juror, artist Chester Arnold, with poet Bart Schneider. The Daily Feast is the fruit of a joyous collaboration between old friends, Sonoma painter Chester Arnold and Berkeley poet Bart Schneider, published by Kelly's Cove Press. In the midst of the pandemic, unable to meet at their usual lunch spot, the two decided to make a book entirely focused on food and drink. The book opens like a restaurant you've always hoped to go to and offers beguiling choices for each course. Bart Schneider will read poems and Chester Arnold will share a presentation of his paintings from the book. Both artists will be available to sign copies of The Daily Feast, available for sale in the museum store for $20. Limited Capacity, purchase your tickets soon!
