Halloween Update: 9th Annual LACMA Muse Ball Kubrick Themed

Hey Stanley Kubrick fans, are you ready for Halloween? LACMA is with an upcoming Stanley Kubrick Exhibit,  I'll be previewing it for you next week. Oh, there's also the LACMA Muse Ball, now in it's 9th year and this time it's Kubrick themed. LACMA wants you in your Kubrick themed costumes while you walk through installations based on the mad genius' work. There's going to be a robotic wall of mirrors moving called Archimedes you don't want to miss seeing. The event kind of had me at a set recreation of The Shining, but it's only one of the treats as multiple sets and areas takes cues from Kubrick films. Right after checking out Kubrick at LACMA you could check out "Room 237" a doc on The Shining, part of AFI Fest, this early Novemeber. It looks like all of LA is going to be transformed by Kubrick like it was by LACMA's previous big hit iexhibit of Tim Burton's works and life. Why not be at the center of it all and check out one of the best Halloween parties in LA at the
