Info
Please join us at Villa Aurora on August 30th at 3pm for our "Open House" reception and celebration!
Finally Villa Aurora’s doors are open again!
When we were fearing the worst for our beloved house, you were right there with us. Your countless messages of support have carried us through this very trying time.
Now, we want to celebrate with you!
Please join us for an Open House filled with art, music, books, and refreshments:
5 pm Official Ceremony
5-7 pm Open House
Shuttle starts at 4:30 pm from the corner of Sunset Blvd and Los Liones Drive.
On the occasion of the re-opening, Marta Feuchtwanger's 1932 portrait will be returned to Villa Aurora. The painting was a birthday present for her husband Lion and is one of the very few possessions accompanying the Feuchtwangers into exile.
It was rescued from the house during the Palisades Fire by our friend and Advisory Council member Justin Jampol and his team and has since been kept safe at the Wende Museum (mit link https://wendemuseum.org/). We are deeply grateful to our friends at the Wende for safeguarding Villa Aurora’s priceless artefacts during and after the fires.
