Perhaps it’s not surprising that in this tumultuous political season, disgraced former Brooklyn-Queens Congressman Anthony “Weiner” is the topical title of a new documentary by his ex-chief-of-staff Josh Kriegman.

In 2011, Weiner resigned from his seven-term House of Representatives seat because of an infamous sexting scandal. Two years later, ever-ambitious Weiner decides to enter the New York City Mayoral race.

When then-supporters Josh Kreigman and Elyse Steinberg propose chronicling Weiner’s run, they’re given unprecedented access, staying with him once a second wave of sexting revelations breaks.

Central to the salacious story is Weiner’s wife, Hillary Clinton’s top aide Huma Abedin, a steely, self-possessed woman. “She was very eager to get her life back that I had taken from her,” he confesses, taking full blame for the harm he caused.

Members of the Westport Arts Center Westport Artists Collective today began installing works for its one-night Pop Up exhibition on Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m. The exhibition is free and open to the public. With 100 percent of proceeds going directly to the artists, the event is a great opportunity to support the arts on a local level, an announcement said. Pictured (l-r) are Mark Gravino, Nina Bentley, Duvian Montoya, Tammy Winser, Amanda Innes, Westport Arts Center acting executive director, and (in front) Miggs Burroughs.
