Just in case you don’t get all of your arts and entertainment fix from sweet ole’ Nell, here’s up at those other institutions in our football league:

• Near Columbia University, the African Diaspora Summer Film Series is going on at the Riverside Theatre, located at 91 Claremont Avenue at 120th Street in New York City. Tickets are $10 Dollars. Personal Pick in the Series: On the Verge of a Fever, playing Saturday at 5 p.m., about a teenage boy in Haiti during 1971.

• Though classes have yet to start up at Brown , they are hosting their annual Spectacular Seafood Extravaganza Friday at the Brown Faculty Club, located at One Magee Street Providence, RI from 5-8:30. The cost per ticket is $41. I know all of y’all are just dying to go.

• I personally hate clowns, but if you’re a fan, the University of Pennsylvania’s Circus Weeks at the Garden Railway, located at 100 E. Northwestern Avenue, Philadelphia, PA, is continuing through September 3rd. For more info, go to http://www.business-services.upenn.edu/arboretum/august07.html

• Calling all Egyptophiles: There’s an ongoing “Daily Life in Ancient Egypt,” at Yale’s Peabody Museum, located at 170 Whitney Ave, New Haven, CT. Hey, at least it was warm in ancient Egypt.

• Speaking of exhibits, Dartmouth’s Hood Museum of Art remembered that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and decided to compliment Cornell by copying them. Wenda Gu, of the famous stone steles from last year, is at the Hood through September 9th. The Hood’s address is 6034 E Wheelock St, Hanover, NH.

The pickings may seem a bit slim now, but when classes start up the offerings will be much riper.
