Release the Epstein Files! I can’t help it. Those files must contain some really bad shit cause little t is freaking out. What kind of atrocities are next? Venuzuela is just a distraction. I know all of this is going to generate some brilliant art, but the pain we are going through watching this administration ruin the country is exhausting. Fortunately art show season is upon us with the LA Art Show back to January, in fact, early January. It’s this weekend!! Let’s go! I love this fair because it gives Angelinos a chance to see a lot of art, in one place. The other fairs are next month. We’ll talk about those later. IN the meantime, go to the LA Art Show! It opens with a VIP Gala Wednesday night, and is open to the public Thursday through Sunday.
Please go over to Poet’s Place to check out the poets that Linda Kaye has gathered this month. Everyone has so much to write about. Maybe you’ll be inspired to write something and send it in to Linda. She’s always looking for fresh talent.
Below you’ll find suggestions for art adventures throughout the area. Inspiration and entertainment rolled up in one. Finding joy in creativity is a priority for me right now. It keeps the brain flexible, and active, and distracted in a good way. What art is meant for.
UPCOMING EXHIBITION
January 31 – May 9, 2026
Opening Reception: Saturday, January 31, 2026, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
To love Southern California is to love its vibrancy, diversity, and the dynamic communities tucked in its storied neighborhoods. Neighborhood Ecology will bring together a group of local artists whose work highlights different aspects of various Southern California environs: how the area is seen by non-locals, how it is experienced by its residents, and how the community celebrates their identity. The artwork will explore the many facets of the region – its boosterism, its visible societal concerns, its flora and fauna, its historic manmade landmarks, and its passionate residents.
In addition to the professional artists featured in Neighborhood Ecology, young artists from all five high schools in Glendale Unified School District (GUSD) will present artwork that examines their own neighborhoods. This is the library’s third GUSD collaborative partnership, which seeks to highlight and nurture the burgeoning talent of exceptional students.
