Signing at gun shop

Warren Troy of Willow, author of the outdoor adventures "Trails" and "Jester," will release his new novel at a signing party from noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday at Great Northern Guns, 4433 Wright Street off Tudor Road.

Titled "The Last Homestead: Further Adventures of Denny Caraway, Alaska Homesteader," the latest book follows the solitary Alaskan's struggle to balance conflicting needs for isolation and companionship.

Women at sea

An art show celebrating women mariners is part of the Anchorage Aweigh Boat Show that wraps up today in the Dena'ina Center.

Artists include Charlen Jeffery from Wasilla, Brenda Schwartz-Yeager from Wrangell, Anna Young from Cordova/Seward and Breann Sledge from Seward.

The "Celebrating Women Mariners" exhibit also includes a daily video presentation of Anna Young's award-winning film "Alaskan Women Mariners," which received top honors at the Moondance Festival in New York City in 2012. Showtimes are at 11 a.m., 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.

Smiths give recital

Tickets have been available at centertix.net and should be available at the door right up to the downbeat.

He also promises some special short encores that will be kept secret until requested.
