Porchlight: Beth Lisick and Arline Klatte
Porchlight is a monthly storytelling series hosted by Beth Lisick and Arline Klatte. Founded in 2001, Porchlight has outgrown both the Hemlock Tavern and Café du Nord and begins its 7th year in a new venue—the historic Verdi Club—which promises plenty of seating, a full bar and lots of street parking.
Porchlight shows are held the third Monday of each month at the The Verdi Club
(2424 Mariposa St. at Potrero Ave.)
Doors at 7pm/Show at 8pm
$12, $6 Friends Members
As a supporter of literary arts, Friends of the SFPL acts as an incubator to build capacity and audience for the monthly story telling series.
Porchlight is presented in partnership with Friends of the San Francisco Public Library.
