Investigate the American turkey’s surprising presence in European art. Learn more about the bird through turkey calling techniques. This noisy show at the UC San Diego Library has become a community tradition. Kids are welcome (and they’ll be reciting turkey-related riddles). Presented as an old-time radio show, this celebration is filled with music, sound-effects, stories and facts of interest. Host and bandleader Scott Paulson, a UC San Diego alumnus, and Exhibits & Events Coordinator at the UC San Diego Library, has been lauded by the San Diego Union-Tribune for his entertaining shows: “an avant-garde vaudevillian, think Samuel Beckett meets John Cage.” The Los Angeles Times relayed “Paulson’s brand of G-rated fun, a sort of modern day morphing of Captain Kangaroo and Spike Jones, is always lively and at times wonderfully chaotic.” Event Details: ‣ Wednesday, November 23 ‣ Noon – 1:00pm ‣ Seuss Room, Geisel Library, UC San Diego ‣ All ages. Free. For more information about the event, please call (858) 822-5758 or spaulson@ucsd.edu

Offsite Visit us at the Lanford Days Activation in San Diego July 19- 20! The replica of Roseanne’s local hometown festival is free and open to the public. You can play carnival games, win prizes, eat the Lanford Lunch Box Diner’s famous loose meat sandwiches and enjoy the atmosphere. Famed San Diego country/rock singer-songwriter Sara Petite, whose spot-on impersonation of Loretta Lynn has gained widespread attention, will be playing the role of Loretta Lynn at Lanford Days, July 20-21 in San Diego’s Gaslamp District. Petite has built an award-winning career with songs that owe as much to the rock & roll roadhouse as they do the honky-tonk. She has earned a wide range of accolades — including Top 40 success on the Americana charts, international airplay, and more than a half-dozen trophies from the San Diego Music Awards. Lanford Days is based on an iconic episode of ROSEANNE (season 5, episode 15), when the festival appeared in the episode featuring Country-Western legend Loretta Lynn, including a memorable duet with Roseanne over the closing credits. Throughout the two-day festival, which is free and open to the public, activation scenes from Episode 15 will be recreated as if you are right there in the action with our actors - Roseanne, Dan, Darlene, DJ and others, recreating the magic that millions of viewers experienced watching this episode. Lanford Days will be open from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Thursday and Friday, July 20-21, at 6th & E in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter. The Lanford Lunch Box on Facebook
