Our tag-team girl-band show was so much fun last fall, we decided to do
it again, this time at Drom NYC, the East Village's swank new lounge!!

Come see what fresh surprises are in store at this enticing venue (last
time, the bands made guest appearances during each others' sets for
extra thrills). If you haven't heard the Biddies yet, they're fabulous
players with great compositions plus intriguing takes on tunes you
thought you already knew, all delivered in beauteous vocal harmonies as
well as hilarity, poignancy, and spontaneous glamour. Klezbos just might
feature a truly exotic instrument too.

Thanks to HGLC member and Isle of Klezbos bandleader Eve Sicular for hosting.

Join us on a gay and lesbian tour of the Chelsea galleries. Past tours
have had a great crowd so don't miss this one! Since the art in the
galleries changes continually, this tour will be completely different
from prior ones.

New York City is the world's center for contemporary art, and home to
some of the finest art galleries anywhere. New York Gallery Tours'
director Rafael Risemberg, Ph.D., visits over 200 art gallery exhibits
each month in order to select 8 of the most fascinating and provocative
ones for us to visit, in Chelsea and beyond. You'll see the very newest
in painting, sculpture, electronic media and photography. At each stop
on the walking tour, our guide explains the artwork and leads the group
in lively discussion with a focus on art of interest to the LGBT community.

Thanks to our tour guide Rafael Risemberg of Cornell University GALA and
New York Gallery Tours (
http://www.nygallerytours.com/gay.htm). Rafael Risemberg, Ph.D., is an art critic for the New York Blade, a gay and lesbian newspaper.
