Lecture and Art Installation: Tejo Remy's Chest of Drawers
Thursday, May 15; 6 p.m. Lecture; 7 p.m. Installation
See a work of art assembled live! Dutch designer Tejo Remy will speak and then assemble the High's recent commission of “You Can't Lay Down Your Memory” chest of drawers. Locally submitted drawers have been chosen for the final work—a fully functional chest of drawers, arranged in a visually engaging, seemingly arbitrary manner and held together by a jute furniture-mover's strap. Free with Museum admission and free for members.

ART IN THE CITY
Thursday, May 29, 5 to 8 p.m.
The Museum offers extended hours every Thursday until 8 p.m. This is a great way to see special exhibitions and avoid the weekend crowds. Free with Museum admission and free to members.

FILM SERIES Film Festival of India Closes
Saturday, May 31
The seventh annual Film Festival of India closes on Saturday, May 31, with “Amal.” This fable-like movie centers on a generous-hearted auto-rickshaw driver named Amal who fortuitously picks up a cranky, homeless old man. The man turns out to be anything but homeless and wills his estate to the humble driver. The events that follow come together in a morality tale about the best and worst of human nature.

“Amal,” Saturday, May 31
In English and Hindi with subtitles.

For in-depth film series descriptions, click here or call the films hotline at 404-733-4570. All films are screened in the Richard H. Rich Theatre, located in the Memorial Arts Building, adjacent to the High at Peachtree and 15th Streets in midtown Atlanta. All films are screened at 8 p.m. in the Rich Theatre unless otherwise noted.
