Walkin' with Joaquin

It's live! The complete record of the California Writers Memorial Grove is now live on the FOJMP website.  This is the architectural drawing I found in the Woodminster Theater archive in the Bancroft Library. This is the poster that will be hung in the Ranger Station: See it BIG This is the "soft unveiling" of the poster at the 2026 Friends of Joaquin Miller Park Annual Meeting: Please share your thoughts! What do you think of the author list?  Who have you read/would like to read?  What works by these authors do you think speak to issues of today?  For what historic or contemporary California Writer would you nominate a tree?

I am deeply honored to be the kick-off speaker for the revivification of the San Francisco Browning Society! I'm excited to strengthen a literary friendship that began in 1871. The Browning Monument in Joaquin Miller Park has been a mystery to us all... now coming fully to light. Please RSVP to the contact below... I look forward to seeing all the hats and ties!  (And to think it all began with a crumbling disaster! )
