Days of Books

Home again, home again, jiggety jig

I returned to San Diego last Thursday and hit the ground running for arts and culture. Friday’s In Community event at the Ramona County Library was all we’d hoped to see happen: performing art, visual art, updates about arts and culture in rural San Diego County, and most important (to me, at least) NETWORKING. I can’t stop praising our County Library system. We met in the Community Room (for FREE) where tables, chairs and AV equipment were set up for our use. Our county libraries not only loan out books and CDs, they serve as arts and culture hubs throughout the county. To be eligible to reserve one of the community rooms, be a County library member. Our tax dollars at work people. Believe it.
