Celebrate summer with us - weekend event and exhibitions by Sunset Magazine - Brief Article
Sunset, May, 2000 by Rosalie Muller Wright
* You came by car, plane, and RV, some of you by shank's mare. In all, 23,000 of you came to Celebration Weekend at Sunset last May Well, we're doing it again this year. Stop by our headquarters in Menlo Park, California, on May 20 or 21 and meet the editors, writers, and other staffers who put together your favorite magazine. They'll answer your questions and show you how to enjoy the summer in the West--this most favored part of the country.
Garden staffers on hand to demonstrate easy, portable gardens as well as flower arranging include garden editor Kathleen Brenzel, writers Sharon Cohoon, Lauren Swezey, and the irrepressible Steve Lorton, familiar to many for the gardening spots he does for television.
If your interest runs more to the culinary, Jerry Di Vecchio and her staff, Linda Anusasananan, Andrew Baker, Elaine Johnson, and Sara Schneider, will show you how to give a taco party, make the perfect hamburger, and barbecue a pizza.
In the home arena, Peter Whiteley will demonstrate making a centerpiece out of a shoebox, building a bird feeder, and arranging steppingstones. Mary Jo Bowling will show you how to light your garden and paint with natural dyes.
Our travel staff, led by Peter Fish, will answer your travel questions--Matt Jaffe, Amy McConnell, Jeff Phillips, and Lisa Taggart can help you plan your next trip.
This weekend represents an enormous team effort on the part of all Sunset staff members, whether on stage or behind the scenes. Come meet us and have a great time. See page 138 for details or log on to our website and click on "Events."
