Move over, all you other Florida film festivals; the Palm Beach Jewish Film Festival (the largest Jewish film festival in Florida) is about to kick off Thursday and will run through January 27. Although there will be 39 films available to view, opening night in particular is going to be…
When you were younger, arts and crafts were great. You got to use your imagination to make even the most ridiculous finger painting look, in your mind, like the grandest castle. Now, when adults hear the word craft, it’s mostly associated with beer. But hey, enough of that and you…
The Norton museum is hosting an exhibition called “Say It Loud: Art by African and African-American Artists in the Collection.” If that names sounds familiar, it’s because it’s also the title of a James Brown song. The exhibition runs through March 3. The exhibition itself includes many dramatic paintings, sculptures,…
Chris Colfer, known for his award-winning turn as Kurt Hummel on the TV show Glee has written and starred in a film called Struck By Lightening. As if that doesn’t make you feel bad enough, he’s only 22. And he’s talented (just ask his Golden Globe). Although the movie premiers…
After the New Year’s Eve ball drops, other balls will be gently tucked away. Is there a better way to bring in the new year than watching feisty drag queens “sing” and dance to classic and current pop songs in outfits brighter than the fireworks that went off at midnight…
Sure it’s the holidays, but does that mean you’re stuck listening to bad pop covers of Christmas songs? Not when there’s a funk, soul, and Motown music tribute to be had. The Norton museum is hosting an exhibition called “Say It Loud: Art by African and African-American Artists in the…
Last Friday night, Smash-Con took place at Green Room in Fort Lauderdale. Most other vendor-centered events that consist of comics and crafts usually take place during the day on a Saturday or Sunday. But Green Room’s idea to combine nightlife with nerd life proved to be a smart one. Definitely…
Brian Posehn farts. He goes from sitting to standing and lets one rip with no warning. Now, normally, I’m not a fan of fart jokes. Maybe it’s because I’m a girl. Maybe it’s because I’ve been Dutch-ovened by my boyfriend one too many times. Or maybe it’s because that shit…
Holiday cheer is spreading like wildfire. At least holiday cheer comes with twinkle lights and less burning (unless you have a fireplace). Sure there are annoying commercials, but don’t Grinch things up by focusing on the bad. Instead look toward the good — such as the free Annual Holiday Boat…
If I’ve learned anything from the totally accurate and no way inflated-for-ratings television series Queer as Folk, it’s that speed dating is the only kind of dating gay men do. But there are actual speed-dating events for gay men looking to get to know someone in 60 seconds or less,…
Gay men are known for many things: style, great hair, an affinity for Liza Minnelli that no straight man could ever understand. But a gorgeous blending of melodies, harmonies, and tailored suits? In South Florida, they are known for that too. The gay men’s chorus of the Palm Beaches, known…
Whether you’re a marching-band fanatic (yes, those exist) or simply have a love for good music, getting out with your family to watch a concert is always a great way to relax, spend quality time, or pretend you are cultured enough to enjoy live shows. Either way, Florida Atlantic University’s…
There are few places where you can find great Thai food, art festivals, drag queens, and restaurants serving food at 200 feet in the sky. But any of those could be found on any given weekend on Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach. This weekend promises the 13th-annual Downtown Delray Beach…
It’s time for the annual rivalry of FAU and FIU to commence. Normally FAU does well in this game, and this year should bring in the crowds for a couple of reasons. First, it’s the first Shula Bowl in the new FAU stadium, and second, it’s the first year with…
A greyhound is the only dog you can convincingly dress up as an AT-AT from Star Wars. Not only that but they are second-fastest animal on Earth, following the cheetah. And cheetah’s are such bastards about it, aren’t they? All right, maybe not, but did Al Capone, Betty White, or…
From the moment those affected by asthma, lung cancer, and emphysema are diagnosed — and probably before then — taking a breath of fresh air is no easy task. Until the movie Repo Men can become real life, you know, with none of that creepy organ-repossession stuff, those with lung…
Fellas, grab your fringiest flapper dress, heels, and sequined covered headband (and ladies, you should get a costume too) for a roaring ’20s ball you won’t soon forget. And if there’s one thing Wilton Manors is known for, it’s balls. The age of Fitzgerald, Picasso, Hemingway, and Cole Porter was…
Don’t be fooled by the following words, while they may start out like something only rich white women would be into, they actually end up somewhere pretty cool. The Boca Raton Museum of Art currently has an exhibition entitled the Art of Video Games. This particular museum, though located in…
First of all, let me say that Divas in Art: Spooktacular 2 was a great show. It was comprised of performances by three drag queens: Ricky Rollick, Melissa St. John, and Roxi DeVine. Singing along with them was Lissen Ellington — an actual woman! This isn’t the only time this…
The big house isn’t for everyone, but in the play Delval Divas, it certainly suits four well-to-do women who are living luxuriously at a correctional facility. But just as they are enjoying their incarcerations, one of them gets released early, and someone who had the nerve to be sentenced to…
Want to do the Time Warp straight to after the election? Don’t we all. Luckily Dr. Frank N. Furter is here to pass the time with a tube of red lipstick and a cast of characters who have become unforgettable. Even if an S&M-dressed tranny isn’t your thing (but how…
Clematis Street, filled with bars and great local venues, is always a hot spot on any given weekend. None more so than the Saturday before Halloween, when Moonfest takes over. In case you’re clueless, are new to Florida, or got so wasted last hear that you don’t remember going, Moonfest…
