Weekend Plans

1. Celebrate the Chinese New Year at the Crow Collection on Friday night when it stays open late.  You can also head over to Late Nights at the Dallas Museum of Art.

2. Saturday night head down to the Kessler Theater to see local Celtic rock band The Killdares.

3. If the theater is more your thing, the musical version of the 1956 movie Giant (and book by the same name) opens this weekend at the AT&T Performing Arts Center. 

Eames: The Architect and the Painter

Last month on KERA Channel 13, American Masters showed the documentary Eames: The Architect and the Painter discussing the relationship between Charles and Ray Eames and the Eames Office.  You can now watch the entire documentary online here.   You can also read some posts here from the Eames family about the film.

Hat tip to the Herman Miller Lifework blog for the links to the film and commentary from the Eames family.
