Culture FIX, May 27-June 2
Memorial Day is past, the cool, rainy weather is pretty much over (for now), and it’s time to focus on summer arts and culture with a week filled with outdoor events.
Culture FIX: March 4-10
Festival season is upon us and it opens with a bang. Bockfest and its monk-led goat kick-off at Arnold’s and Cincinnati Wine Festival uncorks in the newly renovated First Financial Center. Brahms and Schumann dominate and you can catch some Bach in Hyde Park. Shakespeare, new playwrights, art and jazz complete the week. Enjoy.
Culture FIX: Dec. 10-16
What we need this week is a good-ol’ Christmas miracle. Short of figuring out how to clone yourself, that’s the only way you’ll be able to get to all the great events in store for us over the next seven days. Read on and pick your favorites. Then relax and enjoy: There are no wrong answers.
YPCC’s 14th season celebrates music and community

Culture FIX: Oct. 9-15
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?
Culture FIX: June 19-25
Summer music mainstays anchor the week, but do investigate opportunities we don’t see as often. Memorial Hall welcomes the well-known Al Di Meola and John Oates, while a less well-known Neil Simon play takes the stage in Mason. Two compelling art exhibits open, one up in Dayton, but worth the drive. There’s the Pride parade and festival and “Rocky Horror” in Covington. Stay cool.
Culture FIX: March 6-12
Bach’s B Minor Mass is surely a must-hear, this week, but that’s not to say there’s nothing else of import happening around us. Women’s History Month kicks off at the Harriet Beecher Stowe House. The Jewish Music Festival and Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra share music created in concentration camps. Imani Winds is not your father’s woodwind quintet. The arts are indeed about beauty, but the arts also teach.
