When does Annie Leibowitz at the MCA finish?

Or maybe a holiday Meximeet at Baja Cantina?

OK ...
The Annie Leibowitz exhibition continues through till March, so my thinking is that we perhaps set a date in early to mid January for that. Hopefully, it shouldn't be too crowded ... Hours are 10-5, so maybe 3:30-ish? Admission is $15, Concessions $10, and MCA Members free.
And perhaps Baja Cantina on Tuesday evening next week? Dec 21 ... ??

Oh, getting there early may be useful too; apparently, council says they need to close the outside area by 9:45.
