60th Anniversary: Marin Civic Center




  
Celebration today for the 60th Anniversary of the opening of the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Civic Center in Marin County.  An insightful and engaging talk by a panel of four about how it is to work inside the building; music by a band of county employees; photography; vintage cars from the era; docent tours -- and a cake inspired (should I point out my spire humor?) by the building. 


  

Door stops below were designed by an artist who appreciates Frank Lloyd Wright designs -- he had visited the building some time ago, and noticed the doorstops being used were fairly crude wood (plywood scraps??), and took it upon him self to create some beautiful wood with inlay doorstops in harmony with the building -- and he is donating many doorstops to the building.  I purchased one for home!
