The opening night of Vancouver Museum's
"Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n Roll" was held on Jun 25 with a themed
evening full of surprises. Three very distinct exhibits:
"Unmentionables",
a sexy underwear exhbit (runs until Dec.), "OPIUM - the Heavenly
Demon" (runs until Mar.) and the "50s Gallery" have been
combined to show
people
that everything old really is new again.
Meantime, later that night, Kitsilano's
Nevermind restaurant held its 5th Annual Summer Solstace
Wine Rave. A surprisingly chilly reception at the door was
fortunately not indicative of the hot tunes and good wines
found inside.
Ravers take note, summer has arrived.
