If you're in the neighborhood (Los Angeles), drop by the Kristi Engle Gallery and check out painter Ed Johnson's show, "Devil Among the Tailors." (Through May 28.) Coffee and/or cocktails a few steps from the gallery (in opposite directions), so you could make an afternoon of it.
Kristi Engle Gallery 5002 York Ave. Highland Park, CA Thursday, Friday, and Saturday: 12 to 6 pm or by appointment
UPDATE Here are a couple of reviews of Ed's show and further info about his work..
