CLEARLAKE, Calif. – A noted actor will be in Lake County this weekend to take part in the premiere of a new movie about Anderson Marsh.
Peter Coyote, award-winning actor, author and director, will attend the Native American Day Gala, to be held from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday, July 18, at the Highlands Senior Center, 3245 Bowers Road in Clearlake.
Coyote will be on hand to introduce “A Walk Through Time,” a 30-minute film about the history of Lake County’s Anderson Marsh and the Koi people who have lived at Anderson Marsh continuously for more than 14,000 years.
