World-renowned artist James Hubbell to speak at Fallbrook Library

FALLBROOK - On Thursday, Dec. 8 at 6 p.m., world-renowned artist James Hubbell will speak in the community room of the Fallbrook Library. This is the latest event in the ongoing free Lecture Series at the library located at 124 S. Mission Rd.

Hubbell’s topic will be the Pacific Rim Friendship Park Foundation.

The Pacific Rim Park Project is a nonprofit organization that has as its mission the creation of friendship parks around the Pacific Rim as a means of fostering understanding and goodwill. The Pacific Rim Park organization has built six parks to date. Over the long-run, they envision the construction of parks in all of the countries that border on the Pacific.

The Pacific Rim Parks act as a way of bridging cultures, establishing new connections, and helping define what it means to be a member of the emergent Pacific Rim community. Each park has a pearl, adding to a string of pearls that will connect this shared region of the world. In contrast to a “ring of fire,” they envision the Pacific as draped with a “string of pearls” through the Pacific Rim Park Project.

Hubbell was the creator of the gate and bench which are a beautiful entrance to the Fallbrook Library Poet’s Patio which is located to the left of the front entrance to the library.
