You might think that, given the launch to many organizations’ seasons, last week’s bountiful lineup would be hard to top. You would be so, so wrong. Outdoor events are particularly in the spotlight. So much to see: We’d best jump right in.
Did you feel it? That touch of fall in the air? That means the new arts season is starting. Orchestras, bands, theaters, museums, galleries – they’re all working to start the cultural year with a bang. Shutterbugs are in for a huge feast. We’ll help you with your itinerary. Read on.
School has already started, and the nights are chilly, but don’t be deceived by the pumpkin-flavored menus. It’s not fall yet. There’s plenty to do during these last breaths of summer: a live Bard broadcast, creepy movies, orchestral Zappa and a jazz world premiere for starters. See what you can fit in. It’s all good.
Culture and the arts not only provide enjoyment and relaxation, but sometimes require us to consider the ways of the world. So it is this week. The Appalachian experience, LGBTQ issues, diversity and grief create art that makes us think. Seafood, Fleetwood Mac, a majestic owl and good shopping are still on tap, but have a closer look.
Hello, FIXees! For this week’s arts and culture rundown, we have – among other highlights – concerts blending classical and jazz, a paddling world-record attempt and a gala of goetta gustation. Not to mention “SenseandSensibilityPrideandPrejudiceMansfieldParkEmmaNorthangerAbbeyPersuasion.” Read on …
Music, murder, mayhem and movies top the list of fun things to do this week. Agatha Christie and Michael Crichton have their moment, while Carmen (spoiler alert!) meets her maker at the hands of her jilted lover. Chamber music and art inspired by playing cards round out an exciting week of cool stuff to do.
If you’re not acclimated to the heat yet, the weather gurus say weekend rain may temper things. Well, OK … if it actually happens. If not, there’s at least as much to do inside as outside this week. So no excuses for not enjoying some mid-July culture.
After a hot holiday weekend, take time to enjoy the indoors. A Patsy Cline fan? Maybe you’re in the Walter Cronkite club. Cincinnati Opera goes all out for their world premiere. Manifest Gallery reconfigures its space to celebrate young artists. Haven’t had enough heat? Check out Devou or Washington Park. Indoors or outdoors it’s up for grabs.
Flowers are blooming and plenty of new art is on the walls. No B-movies, this week. Music in our favorite places. A little dance, a teaser by the May Festival and some radical fashion. Make every night Date Night.
Three dialogue-light films, lots of jazz and bluegrass, an art opening and “The Gingerbread Man.” Tunes at the Zoo is free and an awesome string quartet plays Beethoven. The weather is warming and the sun is shining, so make a plan and live it up before a relaxing Easter Sunday with family and friends.
