 The Grotto is pleased to host a new art reception, featuring the paintings of Shirley Hazlett. The reception will be June 5th, 6-9 p.m. The Southern Wine Group, importers of boutique and artisanal wines from Argentina and Chile, will be pouring. 

Shirley Hazlett is a contemporary painter who will be showing fluid, grid-based paintings, referencing the land, horizon, and sky. Shirley's paintings have been exhibited at the California Museum for Women, History and the Arts, the Center for Contemporary Art, Sacramento, and the San Francisco ArtInstitute, where she currently is completing an MFA in Art, painting.

The response to the first chapter of my new humor novel, Million Dollar Ideas (about a couple of screenwriters in a slightly surreal version of '40s Hollywood), was very gratifying, and now I've posted Chapter 2 on two sites: http://edandjohnny.blogspot.com and Red Room, the new online writers' community. My collaborator on this is Will Jacobs, with whom I wrote The Trouble with Girls, The Beaver Papers and many pieces for National Lampoon...and we are both hungry for comments! Thanks!
