Dennis Tupicoff reception, 4th of July Reminder

Nik and Nancy are back from the Annecy International Festival of Animation -- it was wonderful to see old friends and make lots of new ones -- I'll write a separate article about Annecy in a week or so so that anyone who isn't interested in animation (although I can't imagine who that would be) won't have to read it.

We return to San Francisco just in time to host a party for renowned Australian animator Dennis Tupicoff. THIS IS A PARTY FOR ANIMATION PEOPLE - NOT ONE OF OUR MASSIVE PARTIES, but if you are from the animation world, please come and meet Dennis. He has been in Los Angeles where a retrospective of his work was screened and is coming up to visit Nik and I for a few days.

Nik Phelps performs with Frederick Hodges

NIK PHELPS PERFORMS HIS SCORE FOR WINGS!!!! SUNDAY, MAY 15th at the
DARKROOM

If you missed it at the Balboa Theatre, in Point Arena or on our performance
tour of Scotland, you have one more chance to see and hear Nik and pianist
Frederick Hodges perform Nik's score to the 1926 Academy Award winning film
WINGS.

WINGS, staring Clara Bow, Buddy Rodgers & Richard Arlen, is still as strong
an anti-war film as it was when it was originally made, with exceptional
acting by a superb cast.

Dr. Hal Robbins will MC the evening, giving us all an added treat with his
remarkable and witty store of knowledge.

ONE PERFORMANCE ONLY!!! 8:00 P.M.

3 WEEKS RENT FREE IN SAN FRANCISCO!!!

Nik And Nancy need a house-sitter during Annecy May 24 - June 15. To all of
our friends around the world - here's your chance to come to San Francisco.

It's time to roam Europe in search of new animation, and while we're away in
France, we need a dependable person to enjoy our house and great back yard
in these times of global warming. We will be gone from May 24 until June 15,
and basically need for the person to walk our elderly dogs a few times a day
and feed them. Other than that, there will be some great weather to sit in
our back yard and create, party, or whatever.

Get in touch with us soon if you would like to take advantage of a great
house in the Sunset District of San Francisco.
