I have a capoeira group that's making a CD. We're putting on a fundraiser with a folho dance class and we need a venue. Something for maybe 50-60 people should be okay. We'd like to charge at the door, sell alcohol, and provide food. Date is October 3, 2009. We can pay something up front, or give a cut.

Thank you!

Several years ago I stopped into Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in West Hollywood to visit a friend who had unexpectedly landed there for an emergency procedure. Cedars had a well-known program of installing actual art in patients' rooms, rather than bland designer graphics or cheap reproductions. My friend was a well-respected museum curator and critic, so I was especially puzzled to encounter an ordinary scarf unceremoniously taped to the wall opposite her bed.

"What's that?" I asked.

"My scarf," she moaned. "Underneath is the ugliest watercolor I've ever seen. It's making me sick."
