Hey, lemme tell you about an upcoming event at the Skirball Cultural Center here in Los Angeles. But first, I'll let this paragraph I cribbed off Wikipedia tell you about the Skirball Cultural Center…
The Skirball Cultural Center, founded in 1996, is a Jewish educational institution in Los Angeles, California. The center, named after philanthropist couple Jack H. Skirball and Audrey Skirball-Kenis, has a museum with regularly changing exhibitions, film events, music and theater performances, comedy, family, literary, and cultural programs.
I've been there a number of times including once to see George Carlin be interviewed, once to see Frank Ferrante play Groucho, once for an exhibit about the roles of Jewish comic book creators in that industry. For the one about Jewish comic book creators, they had me interview the wonderful Jerry Robinson in their theater. The people there really respect comic books and they'll prove it again — and I'll be there again — on May 1 when they open…
Jack Kirby: Heroes and Humanity — Delve into the six-decade career of legendary comic book artist Jack Kirby (1917–1994). This exhibition goes beyond the page, featuring original comic illustrations, fine art, and commercial art — many on view for the first time — and his experiences as a first-generation Jewish American whose faith remained important throughout his life.
You can learn more about it on this page…and I'm not sure how long it's going to be there but it'll be there for a while. You don't have to rush.
