OCC Children's Book Festival - October 2019

Sunny southern CA did not disappoint at this year’s “OCC Children’s Book Festival” featuring 2 STEAM talks by David entitled “Beyond the Moon” about possible future space exploration destinations - and - Creating & Designing Otherworldly Space Art”. David joined other authors at “Mrs. Nelson’s Book Fair” for an afternoon book signing, until we sold out! David joined filmmaker Douglass Stewart for a festival eve showing of “A Brush with the Future” about the incredible life and work of space artist Chesley Bonestell. A stellar weekend!
