Homage to Lulu: 100 Years of Louise Brooks – This exhibit celebrates the centenary of the silent film star Louise Brooks (1906 - 1985). Now considered an icon of the Jazz Age, Brooks' popularity today rivals that of her more celebrated contemporaries. On display are dozens of vintage objects - such as books, magazines, sheet music, postcards, film stills and related ephemera - which tell the story of her life and films. This exhibit coincides with other events and happenings taking place around the San Francisco Bay Area and the world.
