Swing and Sway with the Historical Society of Long Beach

Get out your saddle shoes and bobby sox Friday night for a nostalgic USO Dance with a swing band, vintage dress, and refreshments at the Historical Society of Long Beach, 4260 Atlantic Avenue. The festivities, which runs from 6:30 to 9 pm, mark the opening of a new exhibit called Produce for Victory: Posters on the American Home Front, 1941-1945, sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution and the California Council for the Humanities. Fifty-four posters will be on display through April 2 along with items from the Historical Society's Naval Preservation Initiative. Call 562-424-2220 for tickets.
