Mobius Band
Artist Les Light discusses his art piece entitled, "Mobius Band" with Senior Arts Foundation curator Myung Deering during his premier solo collage exhibit on Sunday, April 10, 2011.
"I am particularly interested in design elements: pattern, color, shape and texture. I also work with stories about my family and my numerous grandchildren as subjects for my artwork."
SAF aims to encourage senior citizens over 50 years old who are interested in the arts by providing opportunities to demonstrate their creativities through juried exhibitions and other art activities, to educate them with the open arts and community forum, to connect them to art events with transportation assistance and to utilize their talents in getting them involved in intergenerational programs. SAF has its origins with a group of instructors at Santa Monica College (SMC) and SMC Emeritus College. In working with older adults they began to understand the importance of the arts in the process of aging not only as a therapy but also as a valuable asset which these seniors can offer to society.

EXPLOSION IN SANTA MONICA
EXPLOSION - Images by Fabian Lewkowicz
Responding bomb technicians conducted initial field testing and found evidence of what appeared to be an industrial incident involving cement and other materials; however, a continuing investigation ensued to determine what caused the explosion.
Over the next 24 hours, bomb technicians and detectives conducted further forensic analysis at the scene and, after unearthing much of the large portion of the cement found, uncovered materials indicating that the device appeared to have been deliberately constructed. Investigation has determined that Items found in and around the mechanism are linked to an individual by the name of Ron Hirsch, identified as a transient.
Hirsch is known to frequent synagogues and Jewish community centers seeking charity from patrons. Hirsch is currently being sought on state charges of possession of a destructive device and unrelated local charges.
Based on his suspected involvement in this incident, Hirsch is considered extremely dangerous. Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of Hirsch is urged to contact the investigative agencies. The Santa Monica Police Department’s Watch Commander can be reached 24 hours by calling 310 458-8427.
No known motive for a deliberate attack is known at this time. A joint investigation by the Santa Monica Police Department, the FBI, the ATF, the Los Angeles Police Department, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and the Santa Monica Fire Department is ongoing.
