JACCC Presents Asia America Symphony Orchestra and John Waters, 6/5-8

The Japanese American Cultural and Community Center is pleased to announce two upcoming events: the Asia America Symphony Orchestra (6/5) and an evening with John Waters (6/8).

Asia America Symphony Orchestra will perform on Saturday, June 5 at 8pm.

On Tuesday, June 8, at 8pm, JACCC will present 'An Evening with John Waters: On Neurotic Happiness.' Waters will appear in conversation with Bruce Wagner, novelist/screenwriter/producer. In his new memoir, 'Role Models,' America's favorite cult film director offers intimate literary profiles of his favorite personalities - some famous, some unknown, some criminal, some surprisingly middle of the road. Who inspires you to neurotic happiness?

The event will take place in the Aratani/Japan America Theatre. Tickets are $25 General Admission, and $17.50 for Library Associates & JACCC Members. Tickets may be purchased online at www.JACCC.org or through the Aratani/Japan America Theatre Box Office (213) 680-3700.
