The Old Schoolhouse second Friday lecture series features wildflower artist and author Henry Mockel. Here with the details is reporter Rebecca Havely…
Henry Mockel and his wife Beverly took many trips to Joshua Tree National Park and made frequent stops so he could paint the flowers along the way. They moved to Twentynine Palms in 1961 and opened the Pioneer Art Gallery. After studying botany, and culminating in 14 years of notes, he and Beverly co-wrote “Mockel’s Desert Wildflower Notebook.” The lecture begins at 7 p.m.; tickets are $5 at the door of The Old Schoolhouse Museum, 6760 National Park Drive, on Friday, April 14. For more information, call 760-367-5535.
