What We Wore to Art - @CincyPlay's Three Sisters

 

We went to see the new play at Cincinnati's theatre in the park last week. Sarah Ruhl wrote a NEW version of Chekov's Three Sisters -- and it's goosebump worthy and conversation generating.

Flash Mob Dancers Splash Dance at Findlay Market

 

Yes - we did it again! After our surprise Splash Dance in September - the dancers were clamoring for a chance to surprise Cincinnatians again.

So, on Sunday November 1 we invited everyone to join us for repeat performances.

It was a sparkling fall day in Cincinnati and the dancers came from all across the area for a short practice session at the Ballet. Then we walked over to Findlay Market and surprised the shoppers.

Neighborhood Alive with Streetscapes

We went to the 7th Streetscapes festival at the Clifton community art center. The great old school building was filled with families, artists, kids making art, people buying art to support the center....and outside the ArtWorks team was painting cars.

Ummm -- I maybe offered my car for next year.

What We Wore to Art - Dancing Swans

People from all over the region are coming together this weekend at the Aronoff Center and cheering for the many swans in Cincinnati Ballet's Swan Lake. The sets, the colors, the jumps....it's great to be part of that show. And...wow - that's visually arresting! Here's what we were wearing.
