This Friday A&I Photographic and Digital Services will turn its lobby
into a gallery for a one-night photograph exhibit that benefits a
good cause. "A Journey to Armenia" showcases the imagery of Sara
Anjargolian, Vahe D'Ala and Sevag Vrej -- not to mention the on-site
support of actor Ken Davitian (Borat).
The Doctor Is Out: Below, a view of Shinuhayr's ambulatory care
facility.
The show's hourlong private reception with the artists will help the
Real Medicine Foundation's Primary Care Clinic in the Armenian village
of Shinuhayr -- an impoverished town whose people have no access to
quality health care. Except, that is, for a crumbling, Soviet-era
ambulatory clinic that the L.A.-based Real Medicine Foundation is
trying to rehabilitate. The four-year-old group forms partnerships
with existing organizations from Pakistan to Boyle Heights, to create
clinics and medical programs, or to renovate existing ones in regions
struck by poverty, war or natural disaster.
The reception's spread will be laid on by PAMA Pomegranate Liqueur,
Mi Piace Italian restaurant and bakery, Sandella's Flatbread Cafe and
by Falafel Arax of Little Armenia. A&I Photographic, 933 N. Highland
Ave., Hollywood; Friday, June 12; champagne reception & preview:
7 p.m.-8 p.m., $75; general admission reception: 8 p.m.-10 p.m.;
$25 online advance (see RMF link), $30 door. (323) 856-5280.
