“Arthur Francis Galster (1959-2014) , known to his friends and loved ones as Arturo, died suddenly on August 25, 2014. With innumerable friends and theatre colleagues in disbelief that Arturo is no longer with us on earth, a CELEBRATION OF LIFE – one that he would be proud of – will take place at his beloved Castro Theatre. The evening will be a multimedia celebration of all stages of Arturo’s life and work, including song, dance, visual art, video, film and photography.

The event is FREE and open to the public.

Please come as who you are – Festive attire is highly recommended and encouraged!

An Indegogo Campaign has been created to help defray costs for the memorial service. To contribute please visit: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/a-celebration-of-arturo-galster/x/157923

Arturo appeared on stages throughout the world, but also was special to the Castro Theatre – performing for almost 20 years for events produced by Marc Huestis presents. Here he shared the stage with such celebrities as Karen Black, Ann-Margret, John Waters, John Cameron Mitchell, Patty McCormack, Edie Adams, Carol Lynley, Linda Blair, Barbara Eden, Stella Stevens, and others.
