Zooming In on West Marin’s Past
Join us for a lively illustrated history talk by our local historian Dewey Livingston. Dewey has selected wonderful and clear old photos of people and landscapes and “zooms in” to reveal details, faces, stories and mysteries. He will also use “re-photography” to show changes—many quite surprising—in West Marin’s towns and countryside.
It will be lots of fun, and also a fundraiser for his new book, due in the spring of 2018. Proceeds will help cover costs of editing, design and printing. It’s free, but we encourage donations of any size if you liked the show.
