The Spirit of the Sixties with Francesco Da Vinci

January 11, 2018 2:12 PM

Santa Monica, California – Santa Monica Public Library presents Spirit of the Sixties: Then & Now, a multimedia presentation with Francesco Da Vinci, on Saturday, January 20, 2018, at 2:00 pm in the Main Library’s Martin Luther King, Jr. Auditorium, 601 Santa Monica Blvd. 

 

Photojournalist and peace activist Francesco Da Vinci offers a multimedia presentation on the changes brought about during the 1960s – from civil rights to the peace movement – and how the lessons of that era can be applied in today’s divided America. Francesco will present a short video and slideshow of his photos from that decade, followed by a discussion. A well-established photographer, he is currently producing a documentary promoting diversity and nonviolence.
