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.
Summer continues to rage, but the arts have no intention of letting 90-degree heat win. Stay inside with lectures and art openings. Cincinnati Pops goes to “La La Land” and Cincinnati Music Theatre gives an exam after their show. KSO finishes up outdoor offerings and Phil DeGreg provides lunchtime respite. Enjoy yourself.

This week it’s about singing, shopping and books. All of my favorite things. May Festival steps onto the risers (don’t forget dinner in WP, first) while Simon and Garfunkel take the stage in Kentucky. Langston Hughes, Harriet Beecher Stowe and some acoustic blues each have their moment. Take your pick.
Stepping in this week to pick up the slack for your regular FIXers who each seem to be occupied elsewhere. Truth be told, they all provided a note, so I could not say “No.” There is a lot of homegrown talent among this week’s selections. Pretty impressive. Pay attention as we lay out your weekly smorgasbord…

Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights. If you tire of all the early Christmas cheer, check out some Beethoven. Horror is in the house at the MEMO. Louis Langrée is back at the CSO. MAD Magazine flipping some pages at the CAM and plenty of shopping will round out your week.
Costumes ready? Jack-o-lanterns lit? Creepy sound effects oozing from the boxwoods? It’s Halloween time, and even if you’re not into trick-or-treating or costume parties, there are plenty of cultural events with a Halloween twist on the calendar this week.
