Old Capitol Books presents First Fridays, a monthly event of literature and art. Tonight, at 7pm, we're hosting a launch party for The Homestead Review's latest issue! Come hear poetry by Marina Roman, Laura Bayless, Joshua Convers, and Lynn Hansen; feast your eyes on the beautiful creations of artist Meheen Ruby; and listen to groovy tunes performed by Bedrooms. Suggested admission fee is $10 (but no one will be turned away for lack of funds).

The Homestead Review is an art and literary journal published by Hartnell College in Salinas. It publishes local and national poets, and has its publication both online and in print.

Old Capitol Books' First Friday works to provide a platform for young and emerging talent from Northern California.
