Arts & Life
The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. this Saturday, Sept. 12, at Anderson Marsh State Historic Park on Highway 53 in Lower Lake.
“We are really happy with the generosity of our regional community in donating prizes for the raffle,” said Lori Peters, executive director of the Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce, which is handling the raffle for the festival.
Some of the items to be raffled away include artwork, products and gift certificates from Lake County businesses, a dinner certificate for four from Cache Creek Casino's Harvest Buffet and a one hour massage from Lavender Hill Spa in Calistoga.
“We really appreciate everyone who has donated to our raffle,” said event coordinator Henry Bornstein. “We’re particularly thrilled that a donor has just given a $500 gift certificate to the ‘food-store-of-your-choice’ as one of our raffle prizes. What a wonderful way to support both Anderson Marsh and our community. Many thanks.”
Along with raffle drawings throughout the day, there will be the spectacular music of Laurie Lewis and Nina Gerber, Susie Glaze and the Hilonesome Band, Pat Ikes and Bound to Ride, Jim Nunally and Dix Bruce plus many other local favorites.
There are two stages, so the music will be nonstop.
This event is fun for the whole family and includes children’s activities, food vendors and a beer and wine garden, art and craft vendors, musician’s workshops and Art-in-the-Barn.
Tickets are $15 per person in advance, $20 at the gate. Ages 12 and under are free with a paying adult.

Admission is $15 at the door.
The performance is sponsored by the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County (UUCLC)
“Real American” is 90 minutes of Zimmerman’s funny songs and comic commentary, a tuneful examination of the American political landscape in the era of Hope and Change.
Health care, the economy, same-sex marriage, Creationism, globalization, guns, taxes, abstinence and, yes, Obama all come under satirical scrutiny.
The new HBO documentary “The Trials of Ted Haggard,” directed by Alexandra Pelosi features Roy’s song, “Ted Haggard is Completely Heterosexual.” And his tune “Buddy, Can You Spare a Trillion Dollars?” landed him a mention on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, an unaccustomed honor for a folkie (www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjoshMpYfmg&feature=channel_page ).
The Los Angeles Times says, “Zimmerman displays a lacerating wit and keen awareness of society’s foibles that bring to mind a latter-day Tom Lehrer.”
His songs are heard on NPR, Air America and Sirius Radio. His YouTube videos have garnered over two million views and tens of thousands of comments, many of them coherent.
"We're thrilled to have this opportunity to sponsor Roy," said Carol Cole-Lewis, president of the UUCLC. "Roy is a master at getting us not to take ourselves too seriously regardless of political or religious persuasion."
The UUCLC meets every Sunday at 10 a.m. at the Kelseyville Senior Center. Its mission is to create a religious community that fosters liberal religious living through worship, service, and fellowship in order to make a difference in our lives, our community and our world.
