Persistence of Memory Memoir Writing - Kickstart Your Memoir
May 21, 2013 (Tuesday)
10:30 AM - 12:30 PM
Margo Hammond, former book editor of the St. Petersburg Times and
founder of the Creative Late Bloomers blog, conducts writing workshops
using specific Dali paintings and writings as catalysts for memoir
writing. After studying the paintings in class, participants are
encouraged to mine their own pasts, particularly their childhoods,
refine those memories and artistically transform them into a story that
reflects their personal experiences - just as Dali did both on the
canvas and on paper. Beginners and non-writers welcome.
Registration is required. Sign up at http://thedali.org/calendar/?showCat=6. The price for Dali members has been drastically reduced to $35, so it's a good time to think about joining the museum. The cost for non-members is $65. Art Taco readers, however, can benefit from a $10 discount off the non-member price by contact Bethany Mead, Education Coordinator at bmead@thedali.org or all her at 727-623-4730 and ask for the discount. The discount doesn't apply to the lower member price.

Join us for the Cuban Cultural Fest's inaugural year May 18 and 19, 2013.
The Cuban Cultural Fest was establish to celebrate the rich heritage and traditions of the Island nation that have been nurtured and kept alive by Cuban Americans living in the Tampa Bay area. This festival will showcase talented Cuban artists and performers in a cultural celebration that introduces the people of Tampa Bay to an exciting world of talent and culture.
If you thrive on mouth-watering cuisine; if music and dance keep your heart pumping; if great art touches your soul; if you want your kids to learn to groove; and if you want to roll your own cigars, then join the party at the Cuban Cultural Fest!!
We have something for everyone.
Cuba is perhaps the most enigmatic nation in the Americans. Come to our event and get to know what Cuban culture is all about- music, dancing, food and art, and let's not forget the cigars!!!
Admission is not free, but I couldn't find out how much the tickets are. Their link isn't working.
