In addition, Thursday's event, part of an effort to bring attention to the new year's art exhibitions throughout the city, will also include (for NIS 20) organized tours of the city's sculptures, outdoor performance artists interacting with passersby at the junction of Arlozorov St. and Namir Rd., and advertising billboards featuring works of art. The events are scheduled from 3 p.m. until 10 p.m. For more information, see the Tel Aviv Municipality website at www.tel-aviv.gov.il, or call (03) 516-6188. - Jason Silberman Stand-up women Performers Tsipi Sheveet, Hanni Nehamias and Irit Anavi will hold a comedy "summit" Friday evening, with each appearing in a comic one-woman act addressing subjects such as husbands, sex, diets and housework. The event is the first time the three women will appear on the same stage, and comes after years of friendship between the threesome. The night of comedy will take place at the Mofat performance venue in Hod Hasharon. - Nathan Burstein
