Marilyn 100: Bus Stop (1956) + Experimental Shorts

A Private Screening Event Presented by Mixed Materials
Curated by Jasmine Siddall, MFA

Join us for an intimate centennial celebration honoring Marilyn Monroe through a special screening of Bus Stop (1956), accompanied by curated short films, experimental video works, and a pre-show montage exploring performance, celebrity, and image.

This program reflects on the struggle between two Marilyns—the one invented for public consumption, and the other who possessed a deep desire to be taken seriously as an actress.

The evening will also feature a limited-edition zine, cocktails, snacks, and community conversation in the courtyard before the feature presentation.

Short and experimental film line-up will be announced soon.

Location: Whammy! Analog Media
2514 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90026

Please note: Entrance to Whammy! is located at the rear of the building.
