Artists take it outside
The Art Alliance of Idyllwild (AAI) has commissioned artist T.J. Darwin to restore the beauty of the “Center of Idyllwild” mural on The Fort facing Highway 243. On Monday, Oct. 3, Darwin began by washing the grime off. The mural was built in 1992 and, according to AAI representatives, has not had any improvements during that time. Darwin plans to complete his work by Oct. 18.
Amy Finley, joining the Idyllwild Author Series, entertained her audience Sunday afternoon with stories of Parisian and French cooking. Her 2011 book, “How to Eat a Small Country: A Family’s Pursuit of Happiness One Meal at a Time,” was the topic of her visit to INK.
