Join us at the Mercantile & Art Gallery for an intimate reception and book signing with award-winning author Laing Rikkers, celebrating the release of Morning Leaves: Cultivating a Life of Beauty, Meaning, and Joy — her new book that invites readers to slow down and rediscover meaning in the quiet moments of everyday life. Blending poetry, reflection, and nature-inspired art, Morning Leaves is a gentle guide to navigating loss, change, and uncertainty while staying open to beauty, connection, and joy.
Laing’s thoughtful approach to creativity, healing, and presence makes this gathering a natural fit for Cavallo Point, a place known for its deep connection to nature, reflection, and the restorative power of beautiful surroundings.
Guests are invited to mingle with the author, enjoy sparkling wine, and purchase a copy of the book in the warm and inspiring setting of the Cavallo Point Mercantile & Art Gallery.
Books will be available for purchase at the event.
