THE ROCK IS COMING.  If you have been following the information on the website (on the "Special Events" page) about the John Fisher Project, you may have been wondering where the rock is.   Well, wonder no more.  Thanks to our intrepid Executive Director, Peggy Templer and Texas Quarries representative, Mike Prokop the rock will arrive at the Mendocino Art Center at 8:00a.m. on Thursday, July 5.  Weighing in at a stunning 20,000 lbs, this baby needs some special handling so Bill Daniels will be on hand with his heavy load equipment that we will need to unload the rock and set it in place.  John Fisher, the sculptor and David Russell, the coordinator of the sculpture department will be there to make sure it is placed in just the right spot and I plan to be there to shoot a few pics and just generally be part of the excitement.  Join us if you can.  If you would like to spend some time speaking with the artist, plan to attend our "Meet and Greet" on Friday, July 13 from 5:30p.m. to 7:30p.m.  We might also get Peggy to tell the tale of the traveling rock.  Much laughter to be had there.  Goldeneye, a sponsor of the event, will be pouring their wonderful wines and we will have hors d'oeuvres.  The cost is $10.00 and the money will go to the Art Center's Reconstruction fund.
