This week is proof that some of the biggest events can come in the smallest packages. Whether it’s a museum or a movie for the little ones, the personal connection of music performed just feet away or the beauty seen in small pieces of art, we have an event that’s just the right size for you.
Jeff and Susan Harris announced a $1 million challenge grant to help expand the reach of the Over-the-Rhine International Film Festival.
Engage your mind and your senses this week with new exhibits, performances and more around town. This city has a lot to offer so we’ve done some leg work for you and selected a few happenings we don’t want you to miss.
Spring has sprung (finally) and events are blooming in abundance this coming week. There are many more than we could possibly include, so we’ve chosen a few to whet your appetite. Visit our arts listings for more…
More than 1,000 regional, national and international leaders, scholars, educators, service providers, activists and advocates will be in Greater Cincinnati April 5-8 for a conference, “Restitching the Seams: Appalachia Beyond Its Borders.”
Repeat after us: Pay no attention to the falling snow. It’s spring. It’s really spring. Whatever Mother Nature’s capricious weather, there are still plenty of great reasons to get out of the house this week for great arts offerings. In particular, although Holy Week doesn’t start until Sunday, Easter-themed programs are popping up like daffodils.
However one looks at it, this is a week of transition: Winter is fading but hasn’t completely surrendered. Daylight saving time has begun, returning our early mornings to darkness. For observant Christians, Lent is half over, but Easter is still weeks away. It’s the same in our arts scene, with events looking forward and back, opening and closing. Here are some not to miss.
It might prove a little more difficult to focus in coming weeks. The daffodils already are opening, and daylight saving time will give us an extra hour of evening light. Best to make sure you’ve seen the region’s most important arts events before spring fever seizes you. Here’s a manageably short list.
For many in the Tri-state, especially those near a river, torrential rains and rising waters made the last week a little stressful. If life has drained your spiritual tank, we have a few ideas for refueling it – most of them on high ground. It’s a particularly rich music weekend.
Is recovering from Mardi Gras proving challenging? One way we encourage you not to do penance is to forego the arts for Lent. Missing a week like this would be a sin, so take an aspirin and get out there.
