7Days: Regional arts and entertainment

Happy Thanksgivukkah

When President Lincoln proclaimed Thanksgiving a federal holiday in 1863, setting the fourth Thursday in November as the day, it meant that Turkey Day can never be later than Nov. 28 in any year. Coincidentally, Hanukkah, because of the Jewish calendar, can never start earlier than Nov. 28. Which means this year's convergence of the two holidays is a very rare event indeed. (How rare? It won't happen again for more than 70,000 years.) Celebrate the Festival of Lights by taking in the exhibit and sale of glass menorahs by artists including Ede Horton, Steve Resnick, Eunsuh Choi, and Jacques Rivard at the Gershman Y's Borowsky Gallery, 401 S. Broad St., to Dec. 8. Admission is free. Call 215-545-4400.

Absent smile

Da Vinci's painting known as the Mona Lisa has been in the Louvre, mostly, for more than 200 years, though she's been moved a few times. In 1911, she was stolen and thought lost forever. Among those suspected were poet Guillaume Apollinaire and his friend, Pablo Picasso. But the painting was found in Florence, Italy, two years after the theft, hidden in the apartment of former museum worker Vincenzo Peruggia, who had simply walked out with the masterwork under his coat. In Joe Medeiros' 2012 documentary The Missing Piece: Mona Lisa, Her Thief, the True Story, the filmmaker tells of his obsession with the crime and finding Peruggia's motive with the help of his relatives. The film screens at 7 p.m. at the Bryn Mawr Film Institute, 824 W. Lancaster Ave., Bryn Mawr. Tickets are $10.50; $8 for seniors; $7 for students. Call 610-527-9898.
