This week encompasses the full spectrum, from cultural events about our history to contemporary dance, from al fresco art and music to a trio of film events (one celebrating the outdoors), two powerful examples of Iranian artists standing up to fundamentalist oppression, an exploration of what financially divides us, new and traditional theater, art from around the nation, plus with a variety of music that illustrates our shared humanity. There’s a lot to take in.
Seven, count ’em, art openings this weekend, including the Big 3 – CAC, CAM and Taft Museum. But there’s plenty for your ears (and even your feet) to enjoy, as well.
.And…we’re back. Just like that, the slate is full. I hope you’re prepared. You’ll wish you had more time.

Can you imagine what would have happened in this city had the Bengals won? Alas. It’s time to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and start all over again. Here are some healing selections for the days ahead.
The Christmas season is all about family and tradition, so what a nice time for a homecoming appearance. As your usual fearless cultural tour guide, Thom Mariner, soaks up tropical sunshine this week, I’m happy to step in to help you sort through the offerings on tap this week. As you’d expect for mid-December, there’s plenty to choose from. And I mean “plenty” in the “there certainly are plenty of cookies around this time of year” sense. Here are some of the tastiest options.
Don’t you just love September … except for that back-to-reality stuff? Here are some options for delaying your return to normal. You can thank me later.
