SUMMARY:Sand Rush: The Revival of the Beach in Twentieth-Century Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \nSand Rush: The Revival of the Beach in Twentieth-Century Los Angeles\n\nMonday\, May 13\, 2024\, 5-6:15 PM (Pacific)\nVirtual Presentation \n\n\n5:00 PM Pacific – Program \nThe Los Angeles shoreline is one of the most iconic natural landscapes in the United States\, if not the world. Yet\, in the early twentieth century Angelenos routinely lamented the city’s crowded\, polluted\, and eroded sands\, many of which were private and inaccessible to the public. \nBetween the 1920s and the 1960s\, LA’s engineers\, city officials\, urban planners\, and business elite worked together to transform the relatively untouched beaches into modern playgrounds for the white middle class. \nAs they opened up vast public spaces for many Angelenos to express themselves\, show off their bodies\, and forge alternative communities\, they made clear that certain groups of beachgoers\, including African Americans\, gay men and women\, and bodybuilders\, were no longer welcome. \nSand Rush not only uncovers how the Los Angeles coastline was constructed but also how this major planning and engineering project affected the lives of ordinary city-dwellers and attracted many Americans to move to Southern California. \nA virtual presentation by Elsa Devienne\, author and assistant professor in US History\, Northumbria University\, Newcastle upon Tyne\, England \n\nClick here to REGISTER for the Virtual Presentation on Zoom

SUMMARY:FABS Handpress Era Zoom Group: Decorated Paper and a 16th Century Book Collector/Surgeon/Poet/Spy
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by FABS \nMay 13 (second Monday of the month)\, 4:30pm Pacific/7:30pm Eastern: The Handpress Era group (“printed books and other printed works created before ca. 1800”) is hosted by Jennifer Larson and David DiLaura. For May we welcome two speakers: \nRodger Friedman “Some books wrapped in decorated papers.”  \nI will talk about the Remondini family of Bassano del Grappa\, how their little printing firm expanded into producing color-woodblock decorated papers in the 18th century. I will talk about the process\, about the history of the blocks themselves\, and I will show a few examples. \nDr. Gene Flamm “François Rasse des Neux: Surgeon\, Book Collector\, Poet and Spy.” \nI will discuss  (briefly) books in my collection with his signature and how they reflect the activities of this 16th century surgeon. \nTo join the list for this group contact Jennifer Larson at info@fabsocieties.org
