With apologies to composer Béla Bartók, we’re calling this week’s Culture FIX our “Out of Doors” Suite. Every event listed here takes place outside – well, except for Cincinnati Opera, but remember, the company performed “out of doors” at the Cincinnati Zoo for over 50 years.
At some point, one would think Greater Cincinnati’s cultural scene would have to take a bit of a breather, like when network television airs a week of reruns before sweeps. This week seems like a fine candidate, too, with most days struggling to climb to freezing. One would be wrong, though.
Sauerkraut, Stowe, Summermusik, Shakespeare, Superstar, Sexton. Not that we’re keeping track of the alphabet or anything, but check out the letter “S” this week. How about great food in Waynesville, a visit to the Harriet Beecher Stowe House for pb&j or an iconic musical about Jesus and some supper?
Now that Memorial Day weekend is behind us, summer-oriented arts and culture seasons – from outdoor cinema to a farmers’ market to food festivals to art fairs to jazz series – are kicking off in earnest. Let’s take a look at the week’s highlights.
The event will take place Friday, April 25 at the new HighGrain Brentwood site on Winton Road. It’ll go from 6 to 8 p.m.
A long-dead artist, a terrible opera singer, a friendly but homesick alien and a Man in Black walk into a bar . . . Well, wait a minute. Actually, they’re walking into Culture FIX this week. There’s no punch line here, just another varied, unpredictable week full of activity in Cincinnati’s arts and culture scene.
It’s a lighter week for cultural events, with many groups pausing during the Easter and Passover season. But there’s still a good number of noteworthy events for your consideration.
“Bla, bla, bla..”. I type the preceding each week as a placeholder until inspiration finally strikes and I can fill in this intro. It seems especially appropriate in these deepest depths of winter, so here are a few excuses to take your vaccinated/masked self out for some much-needed distraction/insiration.
