Also, plan on staying that evening and joining us for the Avalon Ball which has moved from October into May.  This has been a sell-out event for two years running so don't delay making your plans and reservations. Learn more at www.AvalonBall.com This event is put on by the Art Deco Society of Los Angeles and Maxwell DeMille.  If you wish you could travel back in time to the heydays of Catalina, look no further!  See a silent film in the Avalon Theatre and then put on your dancing shoes to experience an authentic 1920s and 1930s era dance in the historic Avalon Ballroom!
