“Marlene,” Maximilian Schell’s film interview of Marlene Dietrich, will be shown at 7 p.m. Thursday in the Library at Saddleback College, 28000 Marguerite Parkway, Mission Viejo.

The City of Huntington Beach is sponsoring an art competition to commemorate the city’s 75-year-old municipal pier, temporarily closed last year for safety reasons. The Southern California artist selected by a committee of city officials and others will receive $5,000 for a commissioned painting of the pier, which will become part of the city’s permanent art collection and be reproduced in a limited-edition poster.

The deadline for slide submissions is May 1. Artists must send: between 10 and 20 35-millimeter slides of previous work, marked on the top right side with name, title, medium, dimensions and date, and inserted into a slide-holder sheet; a current resume; and a self-addressed stamped envelope for return of the slides.
