*Three new Poetry Books by street artists have just been completed. 
These collections by Bob, Malcolm and Anna are wonderful expressions of the spirit of the streets.  Positive, playful, whimsical, heavy and light, these poems tell the truth that we may not always want to hear, yet we must hear!  You'll enjoy each page!
 

The titles are:

    Strings of Light by Bob King;
    Sacraments Flame by Malcolm;
    Miracle, by Anna Ione
 

We are seeking printers, publishers and distributors.

*On July 23, 2000 sixty-five people gathered around the "Tree of Life"
planted in front of St. Raphael Catholic Church (Fifth and A in San Rafael)
to unveil a stone with a plaque remembering everyone who has died
on the streets of Marin.  Over forty names were spoken aloud and their
lives were celebrated with music, a prayerful reading, poetry from Bob
King and bells.  This living memorial is a historic step for Marin.
It is a permanent reminder of those who have not survived their
homelessness in the county.

(You can visit the Japanese maple in front of St. Raphael Catholic Church in San Rafael anytime).
