A Celebration of Literature, Art, and Music
Lovers of literature, art, music, and wine won’t want to miss the big Lit & Art event at the Watermark Gallery on Sunday, October 24. The celebration begins at 2 p.m. and features artists and authors from around the world.
Novelist Bathsheba Monk will read from her fiction. She has been described by Tim O’Brien as “a writer I'll be talking about when I talk about brilliant new writers.” Bathsheba is best known for her collection of stories, Now You See It … Stories from Cokesville, PA. Her novel, Nude Walker, is being published by FSG in Spring 2011.
Persian artist and musician Bahman Panahi will give a performance and talk about his work. Originally from Iran, Bahman has performed many concerts, exhibitions, courses and workshops in Iran, UK, Syria, India, Netherlands, Maldives, Tunisia, Spain, Sri Lanka, Belgium, Morocco and France. He recently performed a tar and setar concert at the Freer Gallery in DC and he will be performing at Harvard University in November.
Joining Bathsheba Monk and Bahman Panahi will be artist Manzar (of the Watermark Gallery), and authors Charles Jensen (most recent Director of The Writers’ Center), Katherine Cottle (author of My Father’s Speech), and Eric D. Goodman (author of Tracks, a novel in stories).
Music will be provided by the Lit & Art house band, Red Tractor Factory. Wine and refreshments will be served during intermissions.
The event takes place from 2 to 5 p.m. on Sunday, October 24 at The Watermark Gallery, located in the Bank of America Center Skywalk Level, right across from the Inner Harbor, at 100 S. Charles Street, Baltimore, Maryland. The phone number is (410) 547-0452.
Started in October 2007, the Lit and Art series provides a unique opportunity to sample a wide variety of artistic sensibilities in one sitting. The events are free and open to the public. An open mic section allows audience members to share their own work.
Come experience what has been called “the best excuse to get lit in Baltimore on a Sunday afternoon.” Learn more about the “Lit and Art” reading series and other literary events at www.Writeful.blogspot.com.

Reminder: KEEP YOUR DOORS LOCKED!
A Message from Sgt. Fink of the BCPD:
Between 09/23 and 10/02 there have been three reported burglaries in the Rodgers Forge community where the person responsible entered the home through an unlocked rear door. Once inside the suspect removed items from the kitchen area of the home and then fled. There is no suspect description nor direction of travel. Please get the word out to your fellow residents of Rodgers Forge to always properly secure their homes and valuables; all three cases were crimes of opportunity, the suspect saw items of value in plain view and made entry through an unlocked door. Properly securing ones home will eliminate this opportunity thus making the home a safer environment for all.
The residences affected were on Pinehurst, Hopkins and Murdock Rds. Pinehurst was victimized after 8am while Hopkins and Murdock were during the overnight hours of 9pm to 6am.
Have your neighbors report any suspicious persons or activity to us via the 9-1-1 system asap.
Thank you, Sgt Fink, PC06 Community Outreach Team
