Join us on Wednesday, January 31 from 7-9 p.m. for a birthday party honoring the Harry Ransom Center's 50th anniversary.
Enjoy live music by Glovertango, hors d'oeuvres, birthday cake, and special gifts for those named "Harry" and those who will turn 50 in 2007.
Attendees can also dance the Charleston, sign a giant birthday card, compose a poem with oversized magnetic poetry, drop in for silent films in the theater, and more. Be among the first to see the new exhibition "The American Twenties," which explores the tumultuous decade through its art and literature. The birthday party is free and open to the public.
Founded in 1957, the Harry Ransom Center has evolved into a world-renowned cultural institution. Throughout 2007, the Ransom Center commemorates its 50th anniversary with programs and exhibitions dedicated to "Celebrating the Imagination." More information at: www.hrc.utexas.edu/50.
