SUMMARY:Caroline Arden Launch for her debut YA novel\, The High Climber of Dark Water Bay
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\nTwelve-year-old Lizzie is in trouble. She used to live a comfortable life with her loving father\, but after the stock market crash of 1929 and his sudden death\, she and her family now live in poverty. Lizzie is expected to help support the family\, but she can’t even cook without burning food. One day\, a letter arrives. Her wealthy uncle has offered her a paying job as a summer governess for her two young cousins at a remote logging camp\, so she travels alone into the wilderness of Vancouver\, British Columbia. To her horror\, she discovers that her uncle is missing from the camp. Penniless and stranded\, Lizzie’s worst fears are soon confirmed–she is being held hostage by the camp’s boss. “Accidents are easy to explain in the woods\,” he writes in a ransom letter to her uncle. Lizzie learns that in order to survive\, she will have to perform the most dangerous job at the camp–the high climber. She has one chance to save herself and return to her family. Her intelligence and bravery will be tested to the limit as she pulls on the climber harness to prove to everyone\, including herself\, what she is truly capable of.\n\n\n\n\n\nCaroline Arden holds an MFA in fiction writing from Johns Hopkins University. As a child she spent her summers at her grandparents’ home at a former logging camp in British Columbia. Now she lives in Santa Cruz with her husband and daughters.

SUMMARY:Leslie Jonath Presents Foraged Art: Creating Projects Using Blooms\, Branches\, Leaves\, Stones\, and Other Elements Discovered in Nature.

Divided into chapters by natural elements–flowers\, leaves\, rocks and pods\, and more\, the book encourages readers to forage and play outside using nature’s seasonal art box. With quotes by artists on nature and creativity\,Foraged Art is about making art from what you find and finding art in what you see. \nLeslie Jonath is an author\, book packager\, and producer specializing in content for food\, art\, design\, and children’s projects. She is the author of many books including Snowmen\, Everyone Loves Paris\, Give Yourself A Gold Star and Love Found. She lives in San Francisco.

SUMMARY:Katharine Dion Launch celebration for her debut novel\, The Dependents
DESCRIPTION:Katharine Dion: Launch celebration for her debut novel\, The Dependents\, a wise and lyrical debut novel about a new widower confronting the truth about his long marriage. \n\n\n\n\n“A marvel of a novel. With great subtlety and tact\, it evokes the love\, devotion\, and sadness that bind a grieving father to his troubled daughter. Its cumulative power comes from the depth of Dion’s entry into her characters and the vividness of her prose that brings them to life. The Dependents is one of the best debut novels I’ve read in years\, and a very auspicious one.”–Adam Haslett \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter the sudden death of his wife\, Maida\, Gene is haunted by the fear that their marriage was not all it appeared to be. Alongside Ed and Gayle Donnelly\, friends since college days\, he tries to resurrect happy memories of the times the two couples shared\, raising their children in a small New Hampshire town and vacationing together at a lake house every summer. Meanwhile\, his daughter\, Dary\, challenges not only his happy version of the past but also his view of Maida. As a long-standing rift between them deepens\, Gene starts to understand how unknown his daughter is to him–and how enigmatic his wife was as well. And a lingering suspicion seizes his mind that could upend everything he thought he knew. \nKatharine Dion’s assured debut moves seamlessly between Gene’s present-day journey and the long history of a marriage and friendship. Rich and wonderfully alive\, The Dependents is the most moving kind of drama\, an intimate glance into the expanse of family life and the way we must all eventually bridge the chasm between what we want to believe and what we know to be true. \nKatharine Dion is a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop\, where she was awarded the Iowa Arts Fellowship. She has also been a MacDowell Fellow and the recipient of a grant from the Elizabeth George Foundation. She lives in Berkeley.

SUMMARY:Hazel White presents Vigilance is No Orchard\, an experimental poem sequence inspired by a famous garden now in ruin.
DESCRIPTION:An experimental poem sequence inspired by a famous garden now in ruin. In Vigilance is No Orchard\, Hazel White records her haunting romance with the Valentine Garden\, created by landscape architect Isabelle Greene in the foothills of Santa Barbara\, California. Jealous of its maker’s power to affect a dynamic experience of space\, White tries to make language play faithfully in the game coursing between the body and Greene’s fiercely stirring landscape. Both the poems and the constructed landscape they describe are complex and explorative\, never simplified. Instead their interests are survival\, forage and repair\, the act of making\, accumulation and overflow that results in flowering and eventually gives way to loss. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nHazel White’s new poetry manuscript\, Vigilance Is No Orchard\, is a finalist for the 2015 National Poetry Series. Her work has appeared or is forthcoming in VERSE\, Denver Quarterly\, Fence\, and New American Writing. She and Denise Newman received a Creative Work Fund grant for a poetry installation at the UC Berkeley Botanical Garden.

SUMMARY:For Kids ages 4-8: Leslie Crawford Presents Sprig the Rescue Pig
DESCRIPTION:For Kids ages 4-8 Leslie Crawford\n\n\n\n\nPresents Sprig the Rescue Pig\, inspired by the true story of a feisty swine who escapes a delivery truck and ends up at an animal sanctuary\, this gently humorous tale introduces kids to an intelligent\, inquisitive\, and very appealing pig. \n“May Sprig help people to see what wonderful individuals pigs truly are.”–Sy Montgomery\, author of The Good Good Pig\, Tamed & Untamed\, and The Soul of an Octopus \nTo reserve your seat\, purchase a copy of Sprig the Rescue Pig by speaking to a bookseller or ordering from our website. \n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday\, June 23\, 2018 – 4:00pm\n\n\n\n\n\nThings aren’t looking good for Sprig\, who is packed into a fast-moving truck with dozens of other pigs. He doesn’t know where they’re going but his nose knows there’s something better out there. \nSo with one dramatic leap\, or really more of a tumble\, Sprig sets out on a pig-centered adventure that leads him to his new best friend\, a girl named Rory. Inspired by true events\, this light-hearted tale introduces kids to an intelligent and inquisitive pig who finds his way to an animal sanctuary. \nThe book includes a bonus section called “More About Pigs\,” where curious readers will learn that pigs are smart enough to play video games\, enjoy sleeping in cozy pig piles\, run really fast\, and other amazing facts. \nA journalist and editor for more than twenty years\, Leslie Crawford has primarily written about health and education. It was thanks to her 12-year-old daughter Molly\, who has never met an animal she doesn’t like\, that Leslie developed an interest in writing about animals. Crawford lives in San Francisco with her two children\, six chickens\, five foster pigeons\, and a bearded dragon lizard named Georgia.

SUMMARY:Frameline42: San Francisco International LGBTQ Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:June 14-24\n\nFor more info and to purchase\nElmwood tickets click HERE \nSan Francisco International LGBT Film Festival showcases the best queer cinema from around the globe! The festival runs June 14-24 and will be at the Elmwood June 17-21. \nThe Heiresses(Las herederas)\nParaguay\, Germany\, Uruguay\, 2018\, 95 min\nChela and Chiquita have lived together for decades in fading elegance\, sharing Chela’s childhood home in Asuncion\, Paraguay. Forceful Chiquita manages practical matters\, while reclusive Chela stays in and paints. When mounting money troubles force Chiquita to start selling off family treasures\, Chela clings to her tattered dignity and proudly refuses financial help from friends. But this carefully observed tale about social status takes a dramatic turn when Chiquita is sent to prison for covering up their debts. Chela is forced to reconsider her notions of class by going to work-at first hesitantly\, offering rides to her elderly (and judgmental) wealthy friends despite her discomfort behind the wheel\, and then more confidently\, starting a kind of private taxi service. It is a journey that will take her down exciting new avenues of independence\, and into thrilling contact with young and beautiful Angy\, who encourages her freedom-and a lot more.\nSunday\, June 17 7pm ♿ \nPost Cards From London\nUK\, 2018\, 88 min\nOn his first night out in London after escaping his provincial hometown\, Jim is robbed and left with nothing\, alone on the neon-lit streets of Soho. Fortunately\, he is just what the Raconteurs have been looking for. A coterie of dapper young hustlers\, the Raconteurs are immediately taken with Jim’s ethereal beauty and charming naivete\, and they adopt him as one of their own. The merry band of escorts is soon schooling Jim in the sexy delights of their specialty: using their encyclopedic knowledge of art history to bring to life the homoerotic paintings of Caravaggio\, Botticelli\, and Michelangelo. As Jim becomes more comfortable in his skin under the tutelage of the Raconteurs\, he finds himself submerged in the world of art\, becoming a muse to his patrons and customers\, even while discovering that he suffers from an overwhelming sensitivity to beauty-the legendary Stendhal syndrome.\nSunday\, June 17 9:30pm ♿ \nLife in the Doghouse\nUSA\, 2018\, 80 min\nAttention dog lovers! Are you an admirer of absorbing\, inspirational documentaries? Do you crave a positive story in a world turned upside down? If you answered yes to any of these questions then Life in the Doghouse is the flick for you. Danny Robertshaw and Ron Danta\, a loving couple for 30 years\, are the compassionate\, committed owners of Danny & Ron’s Rescue. With huge hearts and magical Dr. Doolittle energy\, these kindhearted men take care of anywhere from 50-70 dogs at once in their South Carolina home. In 2005\, the couple rescued 600 dogs after Hurricane Katrina\, and have since saved more than 9\,000 abandoned dogs from being euthanized\, and instead found them new forever homes. This fascinating film takes us behind the scenes of this well-oiled doggy domicile. Filmmaker Ron Davis (Pageant\, Frameline32) does an expert job of capturing the day-to-day life of these everyday heroes as they run never-ending laundry cycles\, prep custom food for hungry hounds\, and provide personalized love for each and every animal. We also learn about two men who have faced intense life challenges and found strength in their commitment to each other-and the animals that have changed their lives.\nMonday\, June 18 7pm ♿ \nFish Bones\nUSA\, 2018\, 80 min\nCollege student Hana is beautiful\, brainy\, and conflicted. A Korean immigrant on winter break in New York City\, she’s drawn to music producer Nico but finds herself torn between her family’s expectations and her own dreams and desires. Should she pursue a modeling career (despite her mother’s belief that modeling equals sex work)\, or continue her studies while moonlighting as a waitress? Her growing attraction to Nico only adds to her guilt and confusion. Unlike Nico\, who is accepted by her family and comfortable in her skin\, Hana must live a double life\, keeping both her modeling aspirations and her budding relationship a tightly held secret. Director Joanne Mony Park’s first feature is a kaleidoscope of non-linear moments that reflect Hana’s inner mindscape\, weaving color-drenched images with an equally evocative soundtrack\, which features Hercules & Love Affair and Nicolas Jaar.\nMonday\, June 18 9:30pm ♿ \nBixa Travesty\nBrazil\, 2018\, 75 min\nWinner of the Teddy Award for Best Documentary at the 2018 Berlin International Film Festival\, Bixa Travesty dazzlingly showcases the life and political artistry of Linn da Quebrada\, an electrifying performer from the outskirts of Sao Paulo\, whose daring and powerful performance style matches her social message of resistance and inclusion. A black transwoman (who refers to herself as a bixa travesty-“tranny fag”-by way of reclaiming those words)\, da Quebrada uses singing\, rap\, dance\, spoken word\, and other media to give a voice to queer people of color from Brazil’s favelas. Accompanied by her childhood friend and performance collaborator\, singer Jup do Bairro\, who is also trans\, she creates provocative\, high-energy performance pieces that celebrate and explore gender and sexuality while confronting the oppressive machismo of the country’s music scene.\nTuesday\, June 19 7pm ♿ \nSkate Kitchen\nUSA\, 2018\, 106 min\nAfter making a splash in 2015 with the documentary The Wolfpack\, winner of a Grand Jury Award at the Sundance Film Festival\, director Crystal Moselle breaks into narrative cinema with the sensational Skate Kitchen. Moselle uses a mostly non-professional cast-outside of musical phenom Jaden Smith-to populate this coming-of-age tale\, which she based on the lives of real-life Skate Kitchen girls she met on a train (many of whom she featured in her 2016 short That One Day). In Skate Kitchen\, we’re offered a beautiful\, queer-inclusive glimpse into the subculture of female skateboarding\, a subculture whose popularity never seems to die out with new generations.\nTuesday\, June 19 9:30pm ♿ \nRealness & Revelations Shorts Program\nVarious\, 94 min\nThese enriching shorts showcase the stories and experiences of queer and trans folks of color. Celebrating trailblazers\, queer resilience\, and the beauty of dance\, these films feature QTPOC folks forging toward truth and equality.\nWednesday\, June 20 7pm ♿ \nSnapshots\nUSA\, 2018\, 94 min\nThree generations of women come together for a weekend at the family’s lakeside home outside St. Louis\, and while fishing and Scrabble are intentionally on the menu\, secrets both new and long-held turn out to be the main course.\nWednesday\, June 20 9:30pm ♿ \nMan Made\nUSA\, 2017\, 88 min\nFour men strive for victory in this intimate documentary about men’s relationships to body and self as they prepare for the Trans FitCon Bodybuilding Competition-the only all-transgender bodybuilding competition in the world.\nThursday\, June 21 7pm ♿ \nAnchor and Hope (Tierra Firme)\nSpain\, 2017 \, 111 min\nKat and her girlfriend Eva live in bohemian bliss on their London barge\, floating to a new mooring every couple weeks. Kat (Game of Thrones’ Natalia Tena\, here divinely channeling Shane from The L Word) is content with the status quo\, but Eva (fellow Game of Thrones star Oona Chaplin) wants a baby. The fortuitous arrival of Kat’s straight pal Roger\, in addition to too much tequila\, conquers Kat’s doubts-at least momentarily. Anchor and Hope starts as a raucous\, ribald comedy of manners and becomes more thoughtful without ever losing its deft touch.\nThursday\, June 21 9:30pm ♿
