You're Invited! Bring a Friend!
Our monthly socials are for members with guests by your invitation.
 
As the days of sunshine become shorter, we thought we'd move to a daytime outing for future socials during winter months. For October, we will meet at LOPC and carpool to the Oakland Museum of CA. 
Admission for seniors is $10.95, paid individually at the museum entrance.
 
The noted exhibition is The World of Charles and Ray Eames:
Fueled by their belief in design as a way of life, the innovative husband and wife duo Charles and Ray Eames were two of the most influential designers of the twentieth century. Go beyond their most well-known designs in this intimate and inspiring exhibition portraying their legacy and lives in California. The Eameses—who founded The Eames Office—valued knowledge and discovery, embraced the joy of trial and error, and saw no separation between life and work. Through multi-media installations, films, rare prototypes, photography, furniture, toys, products, as well as personal letters, drawings, and artwork, discover the story of the Eameses from a fresh perspective. Explore the breadth of their work across many fields in this interactive exhibition that brings their ideas and playful spirit to life.
The World of Charles and Ray Eames is curated and organized by Barbican, London.
