Farmers’ market returns

International music fellowships
Montalvo Arts Center has selected 25 musicians and composers from around the world for its Sally and Don Lucas Artists Program, a three-month fellowship for emerging artists. Fellows specialize in music from genres from folk to hip hop, and hail from countries like South Korea, Italy and the United States.
“The Lucas Artists Residency Program is the soul of Montalvo,” said executive director Angela McConnell. “It is one of the key ways in which we reaffirm our mission to engage the community in the creative process and has gained us international recognition as a creative incubator and a model of curatorial practice.”
