This is what is hoped to be the first of a long series of shallow observations into the art world. I decided to channel my energy into being a philanthropists for the arts, since winning so many internet Lucky lotteries, inheriting ginormous amounts of eros, American dollars and and unclaimed monies in unknown regions of Africa and Liberia and possibly receiving untold wealth if only a few questions are answered. Now independent of finances free to travel willy nilly and visit with all who will give me the time of day.

February 1, 2009, the Arkansas Arts Center will host a film festival at the Market Street Cinema in Little Rock. Three films will be shown in January. Show times are at 7:00 p.m., and tickets are $7.50 for each film.
Factory Girl will be shown Thursday, January 15. This movie, starring Sienna Miller, Guy Pearce and Hayden Christensen, imaginatively unfolds the comet-like rise and fall of ‘60s “It Girl” Edie Sedgwick. Sedgwick, a blue blood with a trust fund and a Harvard education, becomes Andy Warhol’s muse and finds herself lost in the center of the Pop Art universe bursting with sex, drugs, style and rock and roll.
Basquiat will be featured Thursday, January 22. Youthful artist Jean Michel Basquiat started out as a street artist living in a cardboard box when he was “discovered” by Andy Warhol’s art world. Starring Jeffrey Wright and David Bowie, Basquiat illustrates the high price of success, which Basquiat pays with friendship, love and, ultimately, his life.
I Shot Andy Warhol will be shown Thursday, January 29. Starring Lili Taylor and Jared Harris, this film is based on the true story of Valerie Solanas, a '60s radical preaching hatred toward men. I Shot Andy Warhol describes her life, relationship with Warhol and the events that led up to the shooting.
Tickets can be purchased at Market Street Cinema. Location: 1521 Merrill Drive, Little Rock, Ark. 72211.
Contact: 501-312-8900

South Arkansas Fights AIDS (SAFA) is having a fundraiser Jan. 17th and 18th
The 17th is a Cuttin - Up Party at the El Dorado Country Club which will include a Dancing with the Stars competition and auction of items donated by local businesses, and Mardi Gras masks made by local artists. These masks can be whatever the artists can "dream up" including a framed painting of a mask, a ceramic mask, paper mache, sculpture, feathered wall hanging mask similar to those worn at Mardi Gras.
There are no color or size restrictions. We just want an item that the artist is willing to donate that would sell so we can raise money to continue our work with HIV/AIDS. Tickets will sell for $30 single or $50 a couple.
We are a nonprofit that does free HIV testing, education programs for adults and children, and direct services to those living with the disease.

This is a call to all! 1. Go out into your neighborhood and find the ugliest, most lame or otherwise tasteless Christmas extravaganza that Rudolph may have regurgitated upon someone's lawn. 2. Snap a couple or so pictures capturing the display. 3. Email me the pictures, and if you'd like comments. 4. I'll post the pictures. 5. You won't win anything except maybe a good butt kicking from your peaved neighbor. Happy Holidays!
I found a Christmas Pig, so I tried to add it and lost one of Trishs' pics but check them out!
