It's that time again! Venice Carnevale 2008 is HERE!

By Leslie Reed (Page 1 of 1 pages) No comments

This year, Carnevale moves to a new location. Esquire Jauchem, event producer, has decided to celebrate Carnevale at the legendary “Beyond Baroque” which will add to the artsy ambiance and even more outrageous costumes and performances. As always, it will be a free outdoor festival this Saturday June 7th from 12:00 pm till 9:00 pm at 861 Venice Blvd (right outside Beyond Baroque, 1 block east of Abbot Kinney). Kathy Leonardo, NY Blues woman moved to Venice 7 years ago, but never lost her New York attitude. She has played Carnevale, every year since its’ inception. Leonardo is happy to be playing at Carnevale again this year. “Every year, it gets better,“ she laughs. “When Miriam More, co producers of Carnevale told me about the new location, I thought, what a great idea. Beyond Baroque is not only a historic Venice site, but a safe haven for so much of local Venice talent to create, flourish and perform. Kathy, a 4’11” flamboyant spicy blues singer, loves living here by the beach. She fits right in with all the eccentric artists and performers. In fact, she does most of her writing with her voice while she rollerblades from Venice Beach through Santa Monica to the Palisades and back. Yes, she is the 4’11” roller blader who you may have seen, wailing her ‘strong woman’ blues through her workout everyday on that sandy bike path in Venice Beach. Kathy will be performing at 1:50 pm, a short set (so don’t miss it) Carnevale will take place on Saturday June 7th from 12:00 pm till 9:00 pm at 861 Venice Blvd (right outside Beyond Baroque, 1 block east of Abbot Kinney.There is a whole line up of local talent….There will be a costume contest, as well as a DJ, Dancing and live music. Don’t miss it….Be a part of this Venice Masquerade, come in costume, or just wear something outrageous….Celebrate Carnevale 2008, Venice Style!

"Rob Kall has been the center of a vast, decentralized conversation for years, letting us hear in interviewees' own words the power of connection in every realm. His new book brings it all together, showing us that the old order is broken and fast being replaced from the bottom up. The old power elite may not know it yet, but millions of us -- organizers, artists, thinkers and doers -- have gotten the message. So should you, by reading Bottom-Up."
