From the organizers: The San Diego Museum of Art is hosting a free celebration of art, folklórico dance and music inspired by the world-famous Guelaguetza festival from the Mexican state of Oaxaca. The culturally immersive event is presented alongside the Sergio Hernández:Embers of Oaxaca exhibition, which opened last fall and will be on view through February 12 in partnership with the Mexican Consulate General of San Diego and the Baja California Secretary of Culture. The festival will feature six traditional dances from regions throughout the state of Oaxaca, and regional songs performed by Lilly Rincón, directed by Mexicali-based Compañía Esplendor Folklórico. There will also be free, family-friendly art-making activities and artworks for sale by artist vendors from Oaxaca. Sergio Hernández (b. 1957, Huajuapan de León, Oaxaca, México) is among the leading contemporary Mexican artists today focusing on the wonders of the natural world, including native species of southern Mexico, the Pacific Ocean and constellations of the night sky. Hernández’s printmaking—following in the tradition of fellow Oaxaqueños Rufino Tamayo and Francisco Toledo, and his use of local materials such as cochineal (the beetle-based red pigment developed before the Spanish conquest by Indigenous Zapotec artists and subsequently exported around the world as the “perfect” red), tie his art-making practice to important local and Indigenous traditions. Guests can enjoy free Museum admission from 2:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m., complementary to the event. Related links: Event information at SDMART.org SDMA on Instagram SDMA on Facebook

The Book Catapult is pleased to host Kevin Maloney for his new novel, The Red Headed Pilgrim on Friday, January 27 at 7:00pm. Kevin will be in-conversation with local author and KPBS arts producer, Julia Dixon Evans. On a sunny day in a business park near Portland, Oregon, 42-year-old web developer Kevin Maloney is in the throes of an existential crisis that finds him shoeless in a field of Queen Anne’s lace, reflecting on the tumultuous events that brought him to this moment. Growing up in the suburbs, young Kevin suffered “a psychological break that ripped me from my humdrum existence” mainlining high fructose corn syrup and episodes of The Golden Girls. Thus begins a journey of hard-earned insights and sexual awakening that takes Kevin from angst-ridden Beaverton to the beaches of San Diego, a frontier-themed roadside attraction in Helena, Montana, and a hermetic shack on an organic lettuce farm. Everything changes when Kevin falls in love with Wendy. After a chance tarot reading lands them on the frigid coast of Maine, their lives are unsettled by the birth of their daughter, Zoë, whose sudden presence is oftentimes terrifying, frequently disturbing, and yet - miraculously - always wondrous. The Red-Headed Pilgrim is an irresistible novel of misadventure and new beginnings, of wanderlust and bad decisions, of parenthood and divorce, and of the heartfelt truths we unearth when we least expect it. Kevin Maloney is the author of the novella Cult of Loretta and the forthcoming story collection Horse Girl Fever. At times a TJ Maxx associate, grocery clerk, outdoor school instructor, organic farmer, electrician, high school English teacher, and teddy bear salesman, he currently works as a web developer and writer. His short stories have appeared in Hobart, Barrelhouse, Green Mountains Review, and a number of other journals and anthologies. He lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife Aubrey.
