AOU356.07 Laela Wilding, granddaughter of the late Elizabeth Taylor, invites fellow Portlanders to a party to cel­ ebrate what would have been her grandmother’s 80th birthday. On Monday Feb. 27, the Hollywood Theatre will open its doors in honor of the actress with a special screen­ ing of the classic film, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. The party and screening is open to the public, with a suggested do­ nation o f $10 to support Cascade AIDS Project and the public arts- focused school, da V inci Arts Middle School. These two non­ profit organizations reflect what Ms. Taylor is best remembered, as a tire­ less AIDS activist and an artist who began her craft as a young child. “I look forward to celebrating my grandm other’s accom plishm ents and honoring her life with this very special screening. It is important to me to carry on her activism and to give back to the community in which I live,” said Wilding. “I encourage friends, film-fans, art-lovers and activists to join us in what I hope will become an annual event.”
