To-Do: Ali Forney Benefit, Jaws, or February House
• Put on your helping hat at tonight's benefit for the Ali Forney Center, which provides medical care and other outreach to homeless LGBT youths. Performers include Antony and the Johnsons, Matmos, and CocoRosie. [flavorpill]
• Jaws screens at the Hudson River. As if you needed another reason not to avoid sunlight and water. [WUNYC]
• Sherrill Tippin gives a reading from February House, the 2005 book detailing the salon-cum-brothel where Carson McCullers, W.H. Auden, Jane and Paul Bowles, and Gypsy Rose Lee made their homes. Ah, back when writers used to get ass. [Paper]
