July First Friday Art Walk, 7/3/26, 5-8pm: Join us as we welcome author Mary Lou Sanelli! Mary Lou Sanelli's newest title, In So Many Words, has been nominated for a 2025 Pacific Northwest Book Award and a 2025
Washington State Book Award. In this new collection of chronologically compiled essays, Sanelli gives voice to the exquisite nuances of day-to-day life, as well as larger struggles we face, while always managing to leave us feeling less worried, certainly less alone, and much more hopeful. These relevant, smart, and frequently funny essays remind us that the simple act of paying attention to what happens around us (put your phone down and look up?) can make a profound difference in how we view the world and ourselves. You will love spending time with Sanelli's unpretentious honesty, as touching as it is wise. She has spent much of her writing career emphasizing what she believes-has always believed-that the most personal is the most universal. She writes on the basis of that.
She has been the recipient of an Artist Trust GAP grant, A Jack Straw
Writers Award, Poetry on the Buses, and a Bainbridge Island Individual
Artist Award (twice). She is a columnist for the Kitsap Sun, the Bainbridge Islander, Pacific Publishing's Seattle newspapers, Art Access magazine, and
contributes to The Seattle Times, and Weekend Edition, NPR, with previous columns in both the Port Townsend Leader, and the Peninsula Daily News. She also works as a speaker
and a master dance teacher. She lives with her husband on Bainbridge
Island. For more information visit www.marylousanelli.com.
