| Each Saturday of January, Artists Embassy International had a program of art, music, dance and poetry. On the first and fourth Saturdays, Natica Angilly and Tanya Joyce held workshops on how to increase creativity. On the Second Saturday, the annual Jack London's Birthday Party (and Natica's too) was held, and focused on poetry. One of the main events was the naming of Modern American Muses. Tanya Joyce, AEI member, as well as a member of Alameda Island Poets who hosted this event, was declared Modern American Muse of Haiku |
