Sinopse

For several years, Artists Ink has been hosting a really cool event called "Artist Alley" during the monthly Art Walk in Oldtown Salinas. Long-time listeners of the show will also have heard some interviews we have done on location at the event itself. This event is much larger and is hosted at Sherwood Park. Dozens of local artists set up their work, bands are playing on the stages, and plenty of food vendors keep everyone's bellies full. It is a fun event that showcases how much local artistic talent we have. I ended up chatting with a Salinas-based writer named Ricardo Ibarra about his first book, "El Chico Infinito," trying to find other like-minded people in a small town and being a Mexican-born writer living in the United States. Most of the interview is in Spanish, so some of you might have to bust out Google Translate to understand it completely.
