A Look at WILLIAM SAROYAN at Arion Press Gallery

The WILLIAM SAROYAN exhibit at Arion Press Gallery enters its second month. Archivist & Curator Chris Garcia created the walk-through video above on January 26th, 2023 to document the first exhibition of Saroyan art and artifacts in the city he often called home: San Francisco. 

The first days featured a wonderful event screening of Omnibus' episode "A Few Adventures in the California Boyhood of William Saroyan," a guided tour, and a ceremonial signing of William Saroyan & Archie Minasian: The Complete Correspondence, 1929–1981 by Blake Riley and Mary Alexander, the team responsible for the book.
