New exhibition now open at the museum.

A unique exhibition, sponsored by best-selling author James Ellroy, about the 1947 murder of Elizabeth Short is now part of the museum tour. Never before seen portions of the official LAPD investigation are displayed along with other information relative to the case commonly referred to as the “Black Dahlia.”

The exhibition opened to sold out tours, hosted by Mr. Ellroy. The exhibition will close on June 16, 2012, so please consider a visit to the museum in the very near future.

More information is available by phoning the museum offices at (323)344-9445.

Alisson Achauer Photographs

Timothy Sellers Paintings

Opening: Sat. March 10, 2012 • 7 to 10 pm

For this exhibit, Allison Achauer works within the relatively new medium of digital photography to explore the traditional genre of still life. Her intimate arrangements of animal, vegetable and mineral continue the traditions of 17th and 18th century northern European masters.

In direct contrast with her process, Timothy Sellers uses the traditional medium of oil painting to create pictures with a modern feel. Each painting depicts one or two boldly iconic fruits or vegetables.

Allison & Timothy live in Highland Park. Many of the fruits, vegetables, bird nests and other objects are from their garden.

Since PI DAY is March 14, we will be celebrating with pies in attendance.

If you can’t make the opening, the display will be see-able by appointment until April 1 (call 323-254-4565 or email amy@futurestudio.com).
