Capone's Laundry is Just the Ticket in the Band Practice Room

Imagine Al Capone washing and pressing your shirts.  Or, shining your shoes.  How about helping with your homework?

While the stories and scenarios in Gennifer Choldenko's books are fictional in nature, Al Capone himself was a very real, larger than life character and personality.  A man who wore banana yellow suits, silk underwear, sported diamond pinky rings and regaled his cronies with his Italian Mama’s homemade cooking…just as easily as he’d get you bumped off for crossing him in mob affairs.

On Sunday, May 21st –  same day as the annual Bay to Breakers race that took place in San Francisco – P.A.T.H. presented and the National Park Service hosted award winning, young adult author - Gennifer Choldenko  - who provided three separate powerpoint presentations and book signings in the Band Practice Room at Alcatraz.  Yes…in the same room where Al Capone played and practiced his 8 stringed mandola and ended up forming the Rock Islanders Band.  

After visitors filed in to take seats on the several long wooden benches set up in the Band Practice Room, Ms. Choldenko proceeded to captivate her audience with tidbits of the history of the prison during Capone’s incarceration.  And, if you had the opportunity to shake Ms. Choldenko’s hand, you would have shaken the hand that shook the hand, that shook the hand, that shook the hand (and so on and so forth - so many time degrees of separation) that SHOOK THE HAND …OF CAPONE!

Enjoy!

A "Lollypop" Sunday at Alcatraz

At the risk of stealing ex-convict/author, Bill Baker’s descriptive modifier, I set off for Alcatraz by bus from Marin County to San Francisco this most sublime “lollypop” * afternoon.

Having descended at the stop before last, I made a straight bee line for the Ferry Building, hung a sharp left and walked up Embarcadero, past sunglass-clad pedestrians sporting souvenir T-shirts and SF Giants caps; pushing strollers, walking dogs, riding rickshaws and dining al fresco at cafes along the way. Weather-wise, it was definitely what you’d describe as a 10+ day, the kind of day that makes you giddy from just being alive. 

Upon setting foot on the Alcatraz dock, I quickly encountered Ranger Steve (Stephen Cote)who took me on the most amazing private tour – to places on the island I had never before seen. Enthralled with lush gardens (a horticulturist’s paradise); diverse bird life (Geese and goslings; a snowy white egret nesting, a mass of black cormorants dotting the rocks at the water’s edge below) and varied views of the bay from every possible perspective of the island. 

When I arrived at The Band Practice Room, it was filled with a stream of visitors who took their time to look at and enjoy all the artwork lining the walls. Not to mention all the positive comments, names and places people were from, already filling up the Guest Sign In book.  And this just the first week out since the show opened on May 1st.  WOW!

THE BIG INSTALLATION DAY!

With little sleep the night before and up again by 5am Wednesday morning (4/26), I packed up all the artwork and brought it outside awaiting Barry's arrival.

Barry and I load up the car.

After hitting crazy commuter traffic in San Francisco, we pull up to Pier 33 at 10am where Sabrina Bedford - Art in the Parks Coordinator(Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy) meets us and arranges for us to park, as well as provides two large rolling carts for the artwork and supplies.

After disembarking the ferry on the Alcatraz dock side, we approach a truck (driven by Ranger Sarah).

Barry in the back of the truck before I climb up with him to ride the long winding curving hill up to the prison entrance.

We simultaneously held our breath as we entered the Band Practice Room, because just a week before, there was still major construction taking place. Whew! All cleared out.  And, I was thrilled to see that the protective plastic coverings on all the windows were also removed to allow natural light to flow in.  Now, ready for us to get to work.

We contemplate the room; lay out all the art and figure out a plan of attack for the major installation job ahead. 

Before we left, Barry adjusts the lighting tracks above to focus on the artwork.  We both ran down the hill and within a hair's breadth, made the 5:55pm ferry back to the San Francisco side before the gates closed.

Blessings,

DOWN TO THE WIRE...OR, BETTER YET... "BALL CHAIN"!

Summary of key tasks performed for the upcoming show:

TUES, 2/28:  Fellow artist/photographer, Barry Toranto and I headed over to the Band Practice Room (BPR) at Alcatraz to scope out the current tracking system; take measurements of available wall space; note all functioning electrical outlets, etc.  At the time, the room was clear with the exception of a tall ladder and plastic covering the windows to protect dust entering the room from current exterior construction.

SAT,  3/11:  I headed over to MICHAELS Framing Department with all 43 pieces ofartwork that needed to be custom matted and framed.  Was at the counter working with their expert framers from 3:15pm-8:45pm

SUN 4/9:  Back at MICHAELS to pick up and load the car with all finished framed artwork.  Bumping into art in every room and corner imaginable at our home!   

WED 4/12:  Barry and I return to Alcatraz to drop offhand constructed wood easels for signage purposes, as well as test chains we purchased from Goodman's Hardware. Originally, we were figuring to use formal art tracking wires, but a month away from the installation, we were informed by Parks Service that as best that they looked in their storage area, they were unable to locate them.  So, Barry devises a different plan. His new moniker- "Brillant Barry"! 

WED 4/19:  I'm back at Pier 33 to catch the 10:30am ferry across to Alcatraz. The BPR is still cluttered with construction, but I was assured by a Parks Staff person that the room would be cleared prior to 4/26.  With only five more days before the scheduled installation , Barry and I have had to resort to ordering spools of ball chain and "A" hooks from a NY company to be shipped Priority for Monday morning delivery.   

This weekend, I'll be printing out all the art title cards and artists' Bios. 

That's showbiz, folks!  More to come..............

KEITH VISITS WASHINGTON, DC AND ADDRESSES SENATE

Shortly after spending time with me, my husband and two kitty girls in Mill Valley, CA, last month, Keith returned to the East Coast to get ready to resume his U.S. circuit tour and speeches with THE INNOCENCE PROJECT.  This time, Keith -  all duded up in a suit but never losing his southern twang -  addressed a panel of Washington, DC Senators and forensic scientists; to tell them his emotional story and vital need for changes in policies and more work on evidence and forensic science.

Many people in the hotel where Keith stayed cornered him to pay acknowledge him and pay respects.

Check out Frank Green's Richmond News article and pics that Keith sent me.

KEITH CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY IN MARIN

It's been a year since Keith Allen Harward walked out of prison on April 8, 2016.  With the expert help of The Innocence Project, Keith was exonerated and a free man at long last after wrongly serving more than 33 years for a rape and murder he did not commit.
 

I had been corresponding with Keith since the beginning of 2006 after having purchased a beautiful drawing he had created of a Goldfinch on clover via the Fifth Annual Inmate Art Auction (December 2005) hosted by The Fortune Society, NYC. 

While it's been a decade, 250+ letters and numerous drawings later, I had not had an opportunity to meet and spend time with Keith in person...until March 26th, when he flew into SFO airport.  
 

Keith stayed with me, my husband and our two kitty girls for a couple of days before he had to fly back home to North Carolina. And in those two days, we painted the town by attending the Vince Gill/Lyle Lovett performance at Marin Center; taking a long leisurely hike out at Blackie's Pasture in Tiburon; and enjoying coffee and snacks at an outdoor table at the Mill Valley Depot Cafe.

This coming May-June 2017, P.A.T.H. present’s “ART ESCAPE AT ALCATRAZ”: A pictorial and historical tribute to the history of ‘The Rock’ through original works of art and poetry by incarcerated artists from around the U.S.     

After three years of persistent submission of formal application to the Art in the Parks Conservancy of San Francisco, P.A.T.H was given the 'thumbs up' to gain access to and use The BAND PRACTICE ROOM at Alcatraz for this very special show. 

So, on early Tuesday morning February 28th, artist photographer friend, Barry Toranto and I headed out to the island where we met up with Sabrina Bedford (Art and Community Engagement Coordinator for the Golden Gate Parks Service) to scope out the venue space; take measurements and notes as to everything we’ll need for the upcoming art installation. So exciting!

After all the heavy deluge of rainfall we’ve had in this area, we were initially concerned about what the weather was going to be like that day.  But we sure hit the jackpot that day!  Alcatraz island is a photographer’s delight. Check out the series of pics and enjoy!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

It's a time honored day to celebrate and express our love and appreciation - to and for our spouses, partners, children, parents, friends,  co-workers...even our beloved pets!  

For me, one of the ways I express my love and compassion is through diligent work with P.A.T.H. - to help validate and give inmate artists a voice, acknowledgment and a sense of purpose. To paraphrase West African Elder, Malidoma Patrice Somé, PhD:

“Purpose is the foundation of human life in this plane. And, purpose provides a certain kind of deeper meaning to a human being’s experience as such.”

I know and understand that we all have lots of financial responsibilities these days - me, too!   But, if you feel moved to support P.A.T.H. in its mission...even the smallest amount ($3, $5, $10 or more), whatever works for you in your budget is greatly appreciated and will be well used. Simply click on the heart below to donate. And, you can select to make the donation anonymous if you prefer:  

PS: If you need a formal receipt with our non-profit EIN number for tax purposes...just ask!   

Thank you, and God bless you! 

Love,
Leslie, Director

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Yes, I know…not only have I not posted a blog in over four months, but January 1st has already come and gone.  Like the age old adage…”better late than never”!

Still, my apologies for taking so long.

The delay in posting a blog since last September 2016? Mainly due to having been incredibly busy preparing for two major P.A.T.H. art events. The first being “ANIMALIA MUSICALE: A Chorus of Critters” at the Marin Center in San Rafael, CA with an Opening Reception date of Wednesday, February 1st from 6-8pm. Please refer to the Events section of this website for more info.  The second being the upcoming May-June 2017 “ART ESCAPE AT ALCATRAZ” event, which has taken up a great deal of my time.   For more info on the latter, please refer to “Call to Artists” page on the website. 

Nonetheless, I very much wanted to wish you, your loved ones and friends a very Healthy, Happy, Prosperous, Joyful and Creative 2017! 

Blessings,

GEORGIE PORGIE, PUDDIN’ AND PIE

"Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie Was a guard in years gone by; (At) Alcatraz he met the worst, Fred and Joseph were the first".

I recently had the opportunity and pleasure to meet *George deVincenzi *at the Mill Valley Depot Cafe. Even though I had originally offered to meet hm in San Francisco, George insisted on driving over the Golden Gate Bridge to meet me in my hometown of Mill Valley.

We found a table inside the Mill Valley Depot cafe (would have sat outside but it was misty and chilly from the fog that had not yet lifted) and sat and talked for about an hour. George is a lovely man - 90 years old going on 60! A thoroughly charming, interesting and well versed man with a lifetime of fascinating experiences and true stories to tell and share.

George expressed a possible interest n participating P.A.T.H.'s ALCATRAZ art show slated for sometime next year (date TBD by the Art in the Parks Conservancy of San Francisco). So, keep your eye open for date confirmation.

In the meantime, George wrote a book titled MURDERS ON ALCATRAZ, which is available for purchase at the Alcatraz gift store, as well as Amazon and other online sources.

NOTE: Reference to Fred and Joseph in my revised version of the classic children's poem refers to a physical altercation that took place between two inmates during Mr. DeVincenzi's first 15 minutes of guard duty on his first day of work in 1950 at Alcatraz. That altercation that George rushed in to interrupt resulted in the murder of one Joseph Barsock.

THE BIGGEST ROOM IN THE UNIVERSE

Dear Friends ...... I just HAD to share this true story with you. It’s a little longer than a usual blog, but well worth reading! Received this from my friend and former co-volunteer at San Quentin State Prison. ENJOY! Leslie

“Earlier this week as I headed for the frozen food section at Trader Joes, honing in on a specific item, I saw a brown envelope laying smack-dab on top of my edamame. "OPEN ME" it said. I picked it up and turned it over. "Yes You!" it said. Oh goodie! Trader Joes is hiding envelopes around the store with secret $5 coupons inside! But no. Instead I found a folded up piece of paper, *handwritten not copied, *in different colored crayon, which you can read below.

It was a classic Candid Camera moment with me looking around to see who was watching me. Did someone leave this just for me? Was it a friend who saw me in the store? An employee? Where was the camera? But I was the only one in that aisle -- pretty unusual for a busy Trader Joes!

Needless to say,* I* L O V V V V V V E D finding this note on top of *the one thing* I was buying from the freezer that day! And I needed that message, too. Which has me wondering how I can "Pay it Forward" by leaving anonymous little notes for a stranger to find. Just the thought makes my heart feel good.

A perfect way to end this story is to relay a conversation I had yesterday with one of the inmates I volunteer with at San Quentin. He was wondering if any of his work with other inmates was making a difference and if they were even hearing his good advice. I told him about The Note In The Freezer and asked him if he remembered any little tidbits from long ago that someone might have told him. Maybe even as a throw-away line? After thinking a minute, Kevin shared that his son, who is now 30, still remembers something that Kevin used to tell him when the son was 4 or 5 years old. Namely, the answer to the question *"What is the biggest room in the Universe?"* is "The Room for Improvement."

You can think about that answer any way you like, but the reality of that story is that we are all farmers. Farmers who sow seeds. Seeds we may never see sprouting, but we sow them nonetheless! Like it or not. I love the thought of being a Farmer who sows inspiring/good/fun/helpful/delightful seeds for others to find. How about you?”

Golden Gate Audubon Society Features Keith Harward's Bird Artwork!

Not wanting to solely rely on The Innocence Project's social media team to get the word out about Keith A. Harward's situation and P.A.T.H.'s current fundraising efforts for Keith - see here for more information - I decided to contact both local and national ornithological societies and clubs.

Lo and behold, the Golden Gate Audubon Society in Berkeley, CA picked up on it. Thanks to Ms. Ilana DeBare - Communications Director for their organization, who worked with me to edit and tighten up an article I wrote, they were kind and generous enough to post an article on their blog website.

The professional limited edition giclee prints of Keith's bird artwork (16 images to choose from) are for purchase. They are gorgeous prints, too- rich colors and textures.

For more information, please feel free to contact me.

Blessings,

NAMEDROPPING AT THE FORTUNE SOCIETY

This past May 15th at the Castle Gardens, 625 W. 140th Street, NYC, NY, FORTUNE SOCIETY founder David Rothenberg, reminisced about his long career as theatrical publicist and producer. The Fortune Society began in 1967 when David Rothenberg produced the play “Fortune in Men’s Eyes”, which captured the harsh realities of living in prison in such a way that it mesmerized the audience and generated interactive dialogue and public discussion.

I happened to be on the East Coast and had the opportunity to meet John Runowicz – Director of Creative Programs – the week before while accompanied by my longtime friend, Diana. But, because I was in Florida at the time of the Castle event, I asked Diana to cover the story and take pics to share.  So, she rounded up her husband and good friend, Leeza, and here’s what she had to say about the event:

David did a lot of “name dropping” in the most tasteful way as he told the packed room at the Castle about his interesting career in PR/Theatre/working with esteemed actresses including Betty Davis, Eartha Kit, Peggy Lee (and his least favorite Lauren Bacall) as a very young man then moving on to Liz Taylor and Richard Burton (not to mention the famous football player turned actor Jim Brown and many many more). He explained the genesis of the Fortune Society, his own ignorance about the horrors of prison and need for prison reform and how he came to produce the show about a young prisoner's gang rape and inability to come back into society even after 20 years. Eventually, David moved from "name dropping" to his running for office (City Council) and losing (having lots of good things to say about the first Governor Cuomo) to the Fortune Society and his mission to educate us all that prison isn't the answer to help the men and women who have ended up there (each for his /her own personal reasons) move beyond those restrictive walls.

David drew a huge round of applause before, during and at the end of his dynamic passionate memoir about following his heart's mission. Leeza felt David's "goodness", and I personally walked away feeling like I can find my next phase of life's work if I listen to my heart the way David Rothenberg did. Thank you so much for including me on your visit to the Fortune Society. I feel like doors can open for all of us!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

MOTHERS ARE SPECIAL by Anonymous

There is no love like a mother’s love, no stronger bond on earth Like the precious bond that comes from God, to a mother when she gives birth.

A mother’s love is forever strong, never changing for all time And when her children need her most, a mother’s love will shine.

God bless these special mothers, God bless them every one For all the tears and heartache, and for the special work they’ve done.

When her days on earth are over, a mother’s love lives on Through many generations, with God’s blessings on each one.

Be thankful for our mothers, for they love with a higher love From the power God has given, and the strength from up above

A SHORT PATH TO ART

On April 20th, a warm sunny, Spring evening, people climbed the steps, walked across the wide open front patio and through the massive front doors of the First Presbyterian Church in San Rafael, CA where the Opening Reception for the current P.A.T.H. art fundraising event/exhibit took place. It was a lovely affair.

P.A.T.H. partnered with The First Presbyterian Church of San Rafael to benefit The Short Elementary School in this special fundraising effort.

Musician, Daniel Berkman played the Kora Harp from which the strains of this beautiful and interesting African stringed instrument filled the chapel venue space. It added a wonderful dimension and experience to all the artwork on display.

The Mill Valley Middle School Chamber Orchestra (young musicians from the ages of 11-13 and under the musical instruction and supervision of Music Director, Phoebe Dong), put on a live one half hour concert comprised of classical music selections. (See below if interested). They did a great job! Everyone who attended was duly impressed with their musical talents. P.A.T.H. wholeheartedly thanks them for their devoted participation so that other kids can benefit from funds received to help build and provide art, science and music programs.

And, last but not least, P.A.T.H. thanks all the incarcerated artist who so generously donated their original artwork for exhibition and sale purposes.

The art will continue to be up on display and available for sale through Friday, May 21st. Please enjoy all the photo images, and if you have any questions, please ask!

FREE AS A HUMMINGBIRD!

Today is historic and cause for major celebration. Because, today, former sailor, Mr. Keith Harward will be released and go home! Yesterday, 4/7, Keith was read the writ of actual innocence by the VA. Supreme Court and released from prison. Keith's freedom is due in large part by the assistance of the team at the INNOCENCE PROJECT in NYC. They took on his case and won!

Tragically, he was wrongly imprisoned for 33 years for the 1982 slaying of a Newport News, VA man and the rape of his wife. Fortunately, recent DNA testing by the Virginia Department of Forensic Science identified not Keith, but another sailor by the name of Jerry L. Crotty who was a shipmate of Harward's on the USS Carl Vinson at the time of the crime.

It is so fitting that Keith is now free as the birds he drew. Keith is an artist who loves birds, and it is through purchasing a beautiful pastel drawing of a Goldfinch atop thistle and clover that I acquired through the Fifth Annual Inmate Art Auction sponsored by the Fortune Society in NYC in 20015, that I first "met" Keith. To find out more, read this article.

More to come re: a possible fundraising effort for Keith. So, stayed tune.

THE COUPLES GAME AT COYOTE RIDGE

One of the incarcerated artists who I write to is currently fashioning a one-of-a kind, 10" x14" detailed and intricately color beaded piece depicting a scene of the last Native American Indian to leave Alcatraz (during the Native American Indian Occupation on the island). He (Timothy) also engages his time and creative efforts in organizing and creating all the decorations for special monthly events at Coyote Ridge Correction Center (WA). The events can be about holidays, religious and/or cultural events. Last September they even had a pow-wow.

The attached photo images are ones that Timothy sent me of the recent Valentine's Day event that he and some other inmates organized. I wrote and told him that I was very impressed, and that they could surely get work in the party/event planning /decorating business once released.

Pic descriptions:

Both bought and hand made papier-mache teddy bears for door and game prizes.

SPRING SONNET

Wishing you a beautiful Spring!

SPRING SONNET

Allegro Springtime is upon us. The birds celebrate her return with festive song, and murmuring streams are softly caressed by the breezes. Thunderstorms, those heralds of Spring, roar, casting their dark mantle over heaven, Then they die away to silence, and the birds take up their charming songs once more.
