Free Evening of Rock ‘n’ Roll Storytelling

join radio announcer and Rock ‘n’ Roll expert Pete Fornatell at the Great Neck Arts Center for an evening of storytelling and photos to promote his new book Back to the Garden: The Story of Woodstock. The event is free of charge and open to the public.

Woodstock is part of American history. Pete Fornatale, the esteemed radio deejay, author and Rockaway resident, is professor emeritus of Woodstock. His book, Back to the Garden: The Story of Woodstock, is about that three-day music festival in August 1969 and all that it meant to America, then in the throes of a cultural revolution.

He helps us relive that event as it emerges from the purple haze of yesteryear. If you weren’t there, this book and Fornatale’s presentation about Woodstock will transport you onto a muddy blanket on Max Yasgur’s farm in Bethel, N.Y., circa 1969.

Mr. Fornatale will sign books following the presentation, and there will be a cash bar and refreshments. Space is limited.
