Benefit Fundraiser for PRS Building Fund: First-Ever Display of 40 Original Artworks by J.A. Knapp forThe Secret Teachings of All Ages The original artworks painted in the mid-1920s by illustrator John Augustus Knapp(1853-1938)for The Secret Teachings of All Ages, are among the most glorious esoteric and metaphysical paintings ever created: visions of Atlantis, the Oracle of Delphi, the Emerald Tablet, the Philosopher’s Stone, the Hand of Mysteries and more. Even high-quality reproductions can’t convey the mystery and beauty of the original watercolor-and-tempera artworks, which remain in pristine condition with stunningly fresh colors. For the first time since they were painted by Knapp nearly one hundred years ago, as a One-Night Only Display to raise funds for the End of the Year Giving Campaign for the PRS Building Fund: all 40 original artworks in the PRS collection for The Secret Teachings of All Ages will be exhibited in the Library together! Our enormous thanks to Virginia Warner and the Virginia S. Warner Foundationfor providing a generous grant to have these rare artworks conserved and framed by Digital Fusion. For fans and admirers of esoteric artwork and symbolism, and The Secret Teachings of All Ages, this is (literally) a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see these breathtaking paintings in person. As a wonderful historical note: Knapp worked in the 1920s painting poster art and silent film title cards for the Thomas Ince Film Co. in what is now Culver City. It was discovered during recent preparation for framing that one of the artworks was painted on the reverse of a silent film title card – and that work has been framed so that both the front art and the reverse card are visible, for the first time since it was created in the mid-1920s a century ago! In addition to the display of the paintings, the Benefit will feature short presentations on Knapp’s artwork by artist, writer, exhibit curator, art critic and former PRS Board Member Michael Pearce, artist and Surrealist Study Group founder Amanda Maciel Antunes (aka dama)and writer, teacher and PRS Contributing Artist Stephen Reedy, as well as a violin performance in the Library by noted musician Savannah Jo Lack. To commemorate this first-ever public display of the Knapp paintings, PRS has produced a limited edition, hand-numbered poster based on Knapp’s original art. Viewing times are as follows: 7:00PM 7:45PM NOTE: The presentations by Michael Pearce, Amanda Maciel Antunes, and Stephen Reedy will take place at 7:45 PM in the Auditorium. Tickets to either viewing session will admit you to the presentations at 7:45 PM. This event is FREE for PRS MEMBERS. You must RSVP to reserve a space, on a first come first served basis. If you’re not a member, please consider joining to help PRS keep presenting wonderful cultural programs like this! General Admission: $30 (exhibit only) General Admission + Ltd. Edition Poster: $50 Ltd. Edition Poster Only: $30 / Members’ Price for Poster: $20 Light refreshments will be served in the PRS Courtyard outside the Library during the event. Bios: Illustrator & artist John Augustus Knapp (1853-1938) is best known today for his collaborations with Manly P. Hall on the pioneering encyclopedia of esoteric symbols and traditions, The Secret Teachings of All Ages(1928) and The Revised New Art Tarot Deck (1929). Knapp’s breathtaking illustrations for The Secret Teachings – gorgeous visions of Atlantean temples, Delphic oracles and Mithraic gods, swirling with color and arcane symbols – are among the most admired works in esoteric art in the 20th century. Similarly, his designs for the Knapp-Hall Tarot have become classics in the field for their medieval-inspired simplicity and beauty. A native of Kentucky, born before the Civil War broke out, Knapp was well into his 60s when he met the much-younger Manly Hall and began working together on Knapp’s journal The All-Seeing Eye and other books. Michael Pearce is a dynamic writer, exhibit curator, and art critic. He is an active and enthusiastic participant in the conversation about 21st century art and its roots, especially contemporary imaginative realism. He has published dozens of articles about art and artists, and wrote a book about art and neuroscience titled Art in the Age of Emergence. He is a champion of art that emerges from popular culture and shapes the spirit of the age. His book Kitsch, Propaganda and the American Avant-garde - the story of the invention of the American avant-garde - will be published later this year. He is Professor of Art at California Lutheran University. Amanda Maciel Antunes (aka dama) is a Brazilian artist based in Los Angeles. Her autodidactic and transdisciplinary practice merges language and durational performance to create multi-media and site specific projects. She works in collaboration with public libraries, nature and communal spaces, reflecting on the selective nature of memory, inherent language and anthropological references as points of departure. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally and had poetry and short stories published in various journals. Most recent select exhibitions and performances took place at Galeria Vermelho, Galeria Chão, Wignall Museum, Track16 Gallery, 18th Street Arts Center, Oregon Contemporary, Brand Art Library, ArtShareLA, and Hansell Gallery. Upcoming exhibitions include her first museum installation at Craft Contemporary in Los Angeles in early 2025. Her first book titled Second Birth was published in the Spring of 2023 by HEXENTEXTE. She’s also a librarian at the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles and founder/curator of the Surrealist Study Group (SSG) at PRS Library, focusing on intergenerational and cross-cultural women's histories and bridging connections. Stephen Reedy is a longtime student and sometimes teacher at PRS. He strives to bring a relatable and energetic approach to exploring the basics of Symbolism and comparative Philosophy. His other life is in the film and advertising industries, where he has worked with companies like Masterclass, Blumhouse and Warner Brothers. Savannah Jo Lack began her professional career as an orchestral violinist but soon abandoned that course to play in bands, tour Australia and make her own music. She was awarded a Golden Fiddle and a Churchill Fellowship for her work in Australia before moving to the US in 2007. After graduating with a masters in film composition from USC, Savannah was invited to be a part of the prestigious Sundance composer’s program in Summer 2022. She worked on the score for the movie Filip, directed by Michal Kwiecinski, (to be released Feb 2023) and composed the music for Tiger Ji’s tragi-comedy, Death and Ramen (2023 release) staring Bobby Lee and Matt Jones. Savannah composed music for the Emmy nominated documentary, Betrayal - the life and art of Rudolf Bauer and for the play, Bauer, by Lauren Gunderson which premiered off-Broadway in 2015. Savannah has worked as a soloist on feature and short film scores, (Killing Ground, Exitus Roma, Empyrean) . She has composed two albums with award-winning producer, Robot Koch. Tracks from these albums have been placed in major advertising campaigns, (Sony Bravia) and tv shows (Night Shift). Her latest record with Robot, ‘Otherwhere’ was recorded with the Deutsche Kammerorchester on the Neue Meister label.

Join us to celebrate the release of TUGNUTT'S CREEK with author Colette Freedman for this special night of reading, signing, and Q&A's. Musical guest performance from Ashlyn Brooke Anderson! ABOUT COLETTE FREEDMAN Colette Freedman is a screenwriter, novelist and playwright. She is an internationally produced playwright with over 50 produced plays and musicals including Mozart: Her Story the Musical which played at Carnegie Hall and on London’s West End. Her play Sister Cities has been produced around the country and internationally over 100 times, including Paris (Une Ville, Une Soeur), Rome (Le Quattro Sorelle), England and Australia.

She has produced and written several films including And Then There Was Eve, Miles Underwater and 7,000 Miles starring Wendie Malick about Amelia Earhart. A professor who has authored ten books, she is thrilled to dip her toe into transgressive fiction. www.colettefreedman.com ABOUT TUGNUTT'S CREEK As Ted Tugnutt—a militant optimist—embarks on an unexpected journey of self-discovery, he meets an eclectic cast of character who catapult his life into chaos. From a coked-up nun to a duck-obsessed billionaire, Ted’s mediocre existence metamorphoses into a butterfly effect of subversive events, upending societal norms in ways he never could have imagined. With sardonic humor and sharp-witted satire, this book serves as a love letter to women’s rights, LGBQT+ rights, animal rights, and freedom of speech in an increasingly polarized world. Ted’s transformation proves that weird is infinitely better than mediocre, and sometimes, to get to heaven, you’ve got to spend a long time in hell. Information Source: Sunny's Bookshop | eventbrite

The human voice is one of our oldest and most precious technologies. -- Brenton Zola, Harmonize Co-Founder ABOUT THE BIG SING Imagine ~ singing with a large ensemble of other members of your village and community in beautiful harmony. This unique gathering is more than a choir—it's an opportunity to come together in the spirit of Ubuntu, the African philosophy that “I am because we are.” We all have a different relationship with the idea of a choir. Some of us might have had difficult experiences in them growing up. Others of us might have had the time of our lives and now feel nostalgic. Others still might have watched from afar, wistfully longing to add our voice. No matter your relationship to choral singing, the Big Sing is here to a create a connective experience for all. It's an opportunity to sing in an impromptu choir of friends old and new, led by joyous facilitators (and a pianist). We'll sing, laugh, maybe even cry. We'll learn the foundations of what makes a choir sound cohesive and have takeaways about the behind-the-scenes magic of the world's best ensembles -- all while being beginner-friendly. If you miss singing in a choir or have always wanted to try one: welcome. Our Song: TAKE ME TO CHURCH One of the most consequential songs of the last couple decades, Hozier's Take Me to Church took the world by storm. The powerful and wrenching meditation on love, acceptance, belonging and being other resonated with hearts all the world. And now we will sing an arrangement of the song from Harmonize co-founder Brenton Zola. LEARNING BEFOREHAND The best choirs come prepared :o). Sheet music and vocal recordings of each part will be available in a Google Drive folder before the event, sent in an email. It's best to bring your own copy of the score, but we will have extras if you're unable. The more we prepare, the quicker we can get to the magic of harmonies that stir body and soul (Isn't that why we do it?). That said, we're all people with busy lives in a chaotic world. So don't stress -- our choir director and pianist will be there for us. (If this style of structured singing isn't for you, we have other events where we improvise or rap or just sing sleepy songs to each other -- so check those out). DURING THE EVENT, WE WILL: Ground together, melting away the stress of the day with help from our pianistMeet our conductor & warm our voicesConnect with our fellow choir membersDo some improvisational warmups to get out of our headsSang!Refine sectionsSang!!Record some beautiful videos!BUT...I'M NERVOUS We hear you. Singing can be really vulnerable. We do our best to make the environment warm and inviting to allow you to step into your bravery . You're always welcome to check-in with a facilitator if you need support. OUR PIANIST: Ty Rex In the ever-evolving spheres of classical and ambient music, Ty Rex is practices a personal sonic spirituality. A lifelong devotee of the piano and improvisation, Ty invites his listeners into to a sanctuary of healing, where the dichotomies of life and its unanswered questions find rest.

However, athletes may only retry a failed obstacle one time. The athlete must complete the failed obstacle on their subsequent attempt in order to progress through the course. Once the athlete has used up their 2 retries or fails a retry attempt, the run is over. Information Source: Ark Ninja | eventbrite
