Starting May 28th - June 24th, Alibi Book-Shop is hosting a BEAT FESTIVAL at the Empress Theatre! Exhibiting Ferlinghetti's original artwork with the Bay Area Laureates and Vallejo's best bards reading Beat and original poetry. We've got Nick Rossi playing jazz. We've got The Beat Museum on wheels. We've got a dedicated Beat 'zine and scene. We've got Happenings in the streets. We've got weekly salons at the bookstore for crazy chin wags, dramatic Howling, and Dharma Bum-ing.

THIS IS THE STUFF DREAMS ARE MADE OF.

Oh, Vallejo, I dig you the most! *snap* *snap* *snap*
