Tonight is a sold-out special event exclusively for members of LACMA members, and/or members of LACMA Film Club, Film Independent, or the New York Times Film Club—Glenn Close will be here in person for a conversation with Elvis Mitchell. They’ll discuss her long and astounding career on stage, television, and film, including her latest film, Albert Nobbs, which will screen following the conversation. (No more tickets remain... this is why you need to be a Film Club member!)
Andell Family Sundays returns from its holiday break with a new theme for the month of January, inspired by the Chinese New Year. Celebrate the Year of the Dragon by checking out Ai Weiwei’s large, outdoor Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads and get inspired to make masks, or other animal-inspired art. Don't forget, Andell Family Sunday activities are free for the whole family.
