And while we're on the subject of arts . . .


. . . it's never to early to think about Arts Month, which is October in case you forgot. This year the Arts Council has launched GLOBAL, the Greater Long Beach Arts Lab, to emphasize Long Beach's diversity and international connections. Events will include the Southeast Asian Festival at the Aquarium, Sound Walk in the East Village (one of my favorites), the Green Port Fest, a mid-city artist studio tour, and CalRep performances on the Queen Mary. Beginning on October 9 and extending to the end of the month, a group art exhibit of local artists called Exposed will be held in the 25,000 square foot former Expo furniture store on Atlantic Avenue in Bixby Knolls. Now that's a lot of art! A website for GLOBAL should go up soon.
