The countdown to the 100th birthday of Salvador Dali gets going in earnest next Wednesday (Sept. 24) at the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg. Florida First Lady Columba Bush will be among those gathering for announcements that will formally kick off a series of events in the Salvador Dali Centennial Festival culminating in the Surrealist master’s birthday on May 4, 2004.
Concurrent with cultural events in St. Petersburg will be those in Philadelphia; Venice, Italy; and Barcelona, Spain.
