Description

The Hi-Desert Cultural Center is thrilled to host this event that opens with live music, followed by a film screening of the new short documentary film, TOMMY PAUL: PORTRAIT OF AN ARTIST, followed by a short Q&A. 

Tommy Paul was first and foremost, a musician. For many years he operated “Tommy Paul’s Beatnik Cafe” in Joshua Tree and performed all over the high and low deserts.  Eventually, he had to confront a number of serious health challenges. In doing so, Tommy turned to his music—and found purpose, happiness, and fulfillment through his art. 

6:30 PM — Doors Open, Cash Bar available.
7:00 PM — Live Music including Steve Lester, Bob Garcia, and friends.  Introduction and Film Screening (Film Duration: 50 min.), followed by a Q&A.

There will be a break between the live music and the film screening.

Free CD (or MP3 download) for every ticket holder.

Reserved Seating.
