It is free to the public. Seating is available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Joan Baez is a dynamic force of nature. Her commitment to music and social activism has earned global recognition, ranging from induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, to the Ambassador of Conscience Award, Amnesty International’s highest honor. Retired from active performing since 2019, she has devoted much of her time to the “Mischief Makers” series of paintings, portraits that immortalize risk-taking visionaries she has known, who have brought about social change through history, from Dr. Martin Luther King and Bob Dylan to the Dalai Lama and Patti Smith.
Paul Liberatore is journalist, rock ‘n’ roll writer, and participant-observer in the Marin County music scene over the course of several decades. He has written for the San Francisco Chronicle and has given talks about Marin Music history, the Summer of Love, and music history preservation. He currently works for the Marin Independent Journal.
