Sonoma County Artist Fred Parker and a lawyer walk into a podcast: An artist in Sonoma

Fred Parker has been painting Sonoma Valley for years - vineyards, mountains, oaks and more. But he started his professional career as a photographic curator at a Southern California museum (now the Norton Simon Museum of Art.) In addition to talking about his methods and inspirations, Fred brings along his friend and patron of the arts, who is also the local small-town Sonoma lawyer, Mary Piasta.

Hola! We are visiting soon and looking for some wineries where people can do a tasting in Spanish. ¿Tienes alguna recomendación?

I see signs up and down Sonoma Valley that say walk-ins welcome. What does that mean?

Bon jour - we are visiting from Quebec. We would like a sandwich, si vous plait. Where should we go?

 

Are there any wineries open late on Fridays?
