FALLBROOK – The many free events available to patrons at the Fallbrook Library during March include a health screening, talks on a variety of subjects, concerts, a cooking demonstration, and an art show.
Two new exhibitions open at the library on March 5. Fallbrook Focus features the work of the group Fallbrook Shutters, five local photographers. Mike Reardon likes to take colorful photos of the ocean, beach and sunsets. Kenneth Ray Seals creates images that evoke the emotion he experienced at the moment the photograph was taken. Brett Stokes has always had a sense of composition, subject matter aside; "Sometimes it works," he said.
Robert Sommers has a basic rule that form follows function, and hopes his photographs make an emotional connection with the viewer. Louis Nidorf takes a large number of pictures at every shoot, enhancing several that capture symbolic meaning that goes beyond the original shot.
"Haute Couture" shows colorful, fashion inspired sculptures by the newly relocated to Fallbrook sculptor Julia Rasor. She is a successful inventor and business person as well as a prolific sculptor.
Friends of the Fallbrook Library will sponsor a reception on March 11 from 6 to 8 p.m. to honor the artists. Music and light refreshments will be served. The exhibits and reception are free and open to all. The show runs through April 29.
On Sunday, March 6 at 2 p.m., The Acoustic Showcase presents local artist Gabriela Aparicio who will perform in the library’s community room. Aparicio adds a fantastic sway to music with Latin elements showing through her choice of songs. Her music is beachy Latin rock with soul.
On Thursday, March 10 at 6:30 p.m., The Friends of the Fallbrook Library presents Louise Matthews Jail House Cuisine. Matthews will share stories and recipes from her interesting 21-year career as head chef for the San Diego County Jail.
On Thursday, March 17 at 1 p.m., Bob Freaney and friends will entertain everyone with classical piano music in a free concert at the library. On that same day, at 7 p.m., local favorite Erika Davies brings her Retro Tin Pan Alley inspired sound to a free concert sponsored by the Friends of the Fallbrook Library. Davies had released several well received albums before she shot to national attention with her song "I Love You I Do" on a Subaru commercial.
On Monday, March 21 at 2 p.m., "Ask a Nurse" will feature free blood pressure screenings. Attendees can also ask any health questions they may have. At 4 p.m. that day, library visitors can "Learn to make baklava." Pavlina, one of the Fallbrook staff, will show how to make baklava and provide samples for everyone. This adult workshop is limited to 24 adults (18+ years old) who must sign up at the front desk.
On Thursday, March 24 at 6:30 p.m., speaker Maria Ochoa is the
