Long lacking a place for alterna-peeps, East-Lakeview’s newest watering hole is Wang’s, and it’s begging for regulars. It’s the nicest bar on Broadway, right by the Closet, and the martini’s are extra tasty. You walk in and feel like you are in Chinatown and the bar snacks are appropriately dumpling-centered.
September 12th also marks the first opening reception at Golden, Lakeview’s newest art gallery. Showing Jill Frank’s photography, the show is called Psychodrama and “expands on the form of psychotherapy by asking her subjects to sit before the camera to record & memorialize some of their most traumatic, awkward, and embarrassing moments. The creation of these missing pictures negates the generally accepted custom of employing photography to anchor memories of happy times & celebration.” More information at golden-gallery.org and jillfrankphotography.com.
Psychodrama’s opening reception is Friday, September 12 from 7-10pm and the after party will kick off the first Think Pink Friday at Wang’s 3317 N. Broadway from 9pm-12am with DJ Stinky Pinky.
