    Sedona AZ (November 2, 2011) – The crisp, Autumn winds have finally reached our little town. With the West Fork trail on fire with Fall colors and the nocturnal neighbors busy gathering their winter food, the poets are equally busy gathering words to document life. In celebration of the First Friday Art Walk, Friday, November 4th, from 4:00 to 5:00pm, The Poets Corner will finish out another stellar season with a poetry reading from Sedona community leaders such as Sedona Chief of Police Raymond Cota.“We did this a couple of years back and had so much fun with it.”, says Poets Corner host Christopher Ya’ir Lane. “To have community leaders reading poetry for the public, places them, and poetry, in a whole new light.”

    Along with Chief Cota will be Elemer Magaziner, founder of Project Linguistics International, City Council member Barbara Litrell, Sedona Arts Center director Mei Wei Wong and Poets Corner co-founder and famed potter, Mary Heyborne, with possible appearances from Sedona Film Festival director Pat Schweiss and Mayor Rob Adams.

    The Poets Corner was dedicated to Sedona on November 3rd, 2006 and has exposed hundreds of guests to a spectrum of poetic styles and form. The performance season runs from April to November, is located in the sculpture garden of the historic Sedona Arts Center, and to top it all off, Master sculptor Dr. John Soderberg gifted our sacred space with a bronze open book inscribed, “…and here the poet meets his favouring muse.”

    “The community leaders have each selected, or even crafted, a poem they hold dear. I’m eager to experience what they have to say.”, says Lane.

    The Sedona Arts Center is located at 15 Art Barn Rd. in Uptown Sedona. The Poets Corner Season has been brought to us through generous contributions from the Sedona Community Foundation, Zippo Productions and Advanced Release Therapy.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
