In A More Beautiful World Gallery
House of Pleasures: Paintings by Eliza M. Schmid
Now through April 30
Eliza
Schmid, a classically trained psychoanalyst, spins stories in her
paintings that are whimsical, tragicomical and grotesque, often about
abnormal, surrealist mental conditions that are yet tellingly
emblematic of our so-called "normal" times. Her previous show several
years ago was one of the most popular ever in our gallery. Don't miss
this show of new work, which brings in fresh elements of witchcraft and travel. Call before coming just to be sure we're here!

When we concluded our 2009 exhibition in A Beautiful World Gallery, "The
Revolution is Only a T-Shirt Away," Arbeter Ring commissioned a

The result is a beautiful, priceless heirloom reflecting the legacy of
social movements of the last 30 years. And it could be yours! Raffle
tickets are $5 each, 5/$20. Purchase in person, by phone, email or
mail. Only 500 tickets will be sold and there are just a few dozen tickets left!

Deb Filler, New Zealand's Funniest Jewish Export, March 27
|
Parlor Performances in association with Temple Akiba presents
New Zealand's Funniest Jewish Export!
DEB FILLER, cosponsored by Arbeter Ring
Saturday, March 27 at 7:30pm at Temple Akiba in Culver City
Described
alternatively as warm, gifted, a consummate performer and a complete
chameleon, the New York Times says "she has turned to theatre, to
writing, to art, in an effort to sort through the experience of growing
up in a family with memories too terrible to speak of." Deb's comedic
genius should leave no fan of Tracy Ullman or Lily Tomlin disappointed! Check out her rock 'n roll songs in Yiddish!
Temple Akiba: 5249 South Sepulveda Blvd. in Culver City, CA
$25 ($20 groups of 8 or more)
RSVP & Info: Jeannine Frank * (310) 476-6735 * Jeannine@FrankEntertainment.com
