The L.A. City Attorney's office could use extra personnel to handle all the extra intake they receive from people walking in the door with information of alleged
criminal acts committed by Jan Perry.
I heard from a neighbor that pre-event ticket sales for this Soda Pop Tasting are going briskly. This is promising to be a sold out event.
The Friends of the Southwest Museum Coalition have shown that they know how to run a marathon in pursuit of a worthy goal - saving the Southwest Museum from a literal white collar theft by the Autry Museum officials.
Autry so distrusts its "supporters" that at the public hearings, only Autry employees spoke and they read canned speeches that contained appalling misrepresentations about the facts of the issue.
People should give generously so that we all can unite around a vision of a restoring these important historic sites for our children.
This place is fantastic and unique. It is worth the price of the ticket whether or not you support the SW Museum or not.
I would like to know what the money will be used for. It is a worthy cause. And, the soda's are to die for.
I saw this event on Yelp.com as a Pick of the Week.
Several hundred thousand people are on the LA Yelp list so watch out Galco's: You could be in for a hipster invasion.
And this ought to be sending a message to the Autry Museum whose average supporter is 60 years old. Unless you shape up, treat the historic Northeast site with some respect, and capture the interest of the younger generation, you will not be around very long to show the Southwest's collection in your Griffith Park building.
Galco's is the bomb. A group of LA bicyclists are organizing a ride to the event.
The Coalition uses funding to prepare updated plans on how to reopen the Southwest Museum. According to some newspapers, the Coalition is also considering litigation to bring Autry management back to the promises it made as a condition of getting the Southwest and its collections.
Reports previously done are at www.friendsofthesouthwestmuseum.com where I got my ticket to the Soda Pop Tasting.
According to Nese, they have pre-sold over 300 tickets and the email orders are coming in.
