Happy spring, everyone! I am excited to announce that the exhibit we’ve all been waiting for is finally here! Sketch to Screen opens this week at the Museum of Art and I can’t wait to see those Scarlett O’Hara costumes – she’s my idol.  For the next few weeks, Oklahoma City movie buffs will be in heaven. 

There are also some pretty rad (yeah, I said it) exhibits going on around town that are incredibly unique. The Jason Hackenwerth exhibit at City Arts Center looks out of this world and I can’t wait to see it.  Oklahoma Friendly at IAO is in its last weekend and we all need to go and support our great state! 

OK, enough chit chat from me.  Choose the event that most interests you and go to it! Support the arts in OKC!

Here’s a heads-up that Canterbury Choral Society’s annual fundraiser, Masquerade Ball, is next Saturday, June 5th.  Dust off your Egyptian garb (you know you have that cobra headdress somewhere in your closet) or just brush up your formal wear and join “Cleopatra’s Court.”  Click here for more information.

Also, Lyric at the Civic Center single tickets are on sale now! You can buy them here.



See Keira Knightly's green dress in the screening of Atonement tonight and in the Sketch to Screen exhibit.

I hope you all enjoyed your long Memorial Day weekend.  I know I did!  So, what’s exciting about the weekend after Memorial Day?  Summertime activities officially begin! Catch an outdoor concert, rooftop fun, art exhibit, play or film screening.  I think art might be more fun in the summer.
