Artscene: Art gallery has new home in Portola Valley Artscene: Art gallery has new home in Portola Valley (November 02, 2005)

The Portola Valley Art Gallery has moved next door to a larger, brighter space, formerly occupied by the Portola Valley Library, thanks in part to a gift from Jean and Bill Lane, says exhibiting artist Kim Lordier.

A grand opening reception will be held from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday, November 13.

Fourteen permanent artists exhibit a wide range of work, including photography, paintings and pottery.

The gallery is open Wednesday through Sunday, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is located at 765 Portola Road behind the Historic Schoolhouse.

Fadiman film on 2004 election

Menlo Park film director Dorothy Fadiman's new documentary -- "Who Kidnapped My Vote?" -- strives to tell behind-the-scene stories from the 2004 presidential election.

A "work in progress" screening of the film is scheduled for 7 p.m. Sunday, December 4, at Cubberley Theatre, 4000 Middlefield Road in Palo Alto.

For the documentary, Ms. Fadiman interviewed voters who felt disenfranchised, computer experts, poll workers and journalists.

The screening, sponsored by Concentric Media and The Peninsula Peace and Justice Center, is a fundraiser. The suggested donation is $25. Advance reservations should be sent, via e-mail, to info@concentric.org.
