Scarlett Johansson delivered classic glamour at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner 2024 on Saturday in Washington, D.C. The actress, who accompanied her husband Colin Jost at the event, donned a strapless white gown from Armani Privé.

In fact, the cover of Browne’s second album, For Everyman, features the singer sitting in the courtyard of the Abbey. He was also influenced, as is evident by looking at it, some of the California Missions. The interior of the Abbey features a number of dungeons, a cellar, a refectory, and a chapel. Browne (who worked as a piano player before he started his printing company) often played the chapel’s organ — an instrument that had been shipped from Germany and hand-assembled and installed by Browne — at these celebrations. Browne worked with the local stained glass masters at Judson Studios to build and install a circular stained glass window in the front of the building facing Arroyo Glen Street. The window, which details a Franciscan monk reading a manuscript while a Native American man works the printing press, was intended by Browne to represent California’s first printing press.

Unfortunately, services and shelter are overwhelmed by the volume of those in need. Each woman staying in our shelter or living in our housing is assigned her own Advocate, who helps her identify realistic goals and assists her in identifying the tools she needs to achieve them. Our Advocates empower women to access the resources they need to succeed. For information about our Women’s Center and how to obtain a Thrift Shop voucher, visit our advocacy page. At Abby’s, having a personal Advocate makes a world of difference to the women we serve. He now reads 16 to 18 hours a day on weekends, plus 10 hours each day during the week.
