The GFOA: Geriatric Fans of Asayo https://asayomusic.com/ 

Today will be a short one. I had an incredible visit last week with my besties from Altadena’s John Muir High School, class of 1972. Woke up this morning with a fever and aches. Uh, oh.

Lots to show up for in the coming weeks. Please try to help us arts advocates be the change. Also, I have a new section at the end of my blog now for dates and places where I’ll be teaching in the coming months.

A book’s spine is usually designed to hold everything together. But what happens when the spine itself becomes a beautiful and visible part of the artwork?
