The Beatles 50th Anniversary Collection Opening at the Loft in Camarillo on Feb 9th

"The Beatles! 50th Anniversary Collection!" is opening on Sunday, February 9, 2014 from 3 to 6 p.m at the Loft in Old Town Camarillo, followed by "Beatles Blast! Party & Jam Session."

Sessions at the Loft in Old Town Camarillo invites the community to an exhibition commemorating the 50th anniversary of The Beatles' legendary performance on the Ed Sullivan Show and their first concert performance at the Washington Coliseum in DC.  These iconic photographs on display (and for sale) include newly ‘rediscovered’ and uncirculated images, never seen by the public. 

The photos were taken by award-winning photographer, Fred Ward whose articles have appeared worldwide in and on the covers of Time, Life, Newsweek and National Geographic.  In addition, Ward won the ‘White House Press Photo of the Year’ and shot the cover for RFK, JFK and MLK Jr. in addition to authoring numerous books from his lifetime of travel.

Besides the Beatles photographs, the Loft will also display Beatles memorabilia from the private collection of Composer/Musician, Grant Geisman.  The exhibition is free and open to the public and will be on display through March. 

Directly following the exhibition, the Loft hosts ‘Beatles Blast! Party & Jam Session’ from 6 to 9 p.m.  The event is $50 per person and includes a small plates menu created by Chef Gael Lecolley and Beatles music performed by well-known LA musicians including Craig Copeland, Carl Verheyen, Tom Child and Gary Gibbons.
