Glinda of Oz
In 1939, Warner Bros. released a movie that almost changed the original book it was based upon.
Wanting to see Dorothy’s slippers in bright Technicolor meant changing them to red instead of silver. Wanting to use Judy Garland as Dorothy meant changing a blonde, blue-eyed, short haired Dorothy into a brunette in pigtails and a blue gingham dress. And so it was that millions of children grew up thinking the movie was the book and the book was the movie.
Starting its tenth season, The ACT is offering its original musical, “Glinda of Oz” which opens Oct. 10th through the 19th at their now established, Crawford Center for the Arts, 1720 S. Edmonds, in Lewisville, just south of the Renaissance Village Senior Retirement complex. Based on the last book written by L. Frank Baum, author of the Oz series, it puts to rest the myths and presents the story as the author truly wrote it.

Detox Your Past (Regrets)
SERMON SERIES
Worship Time 8:30 & 11:00 AM
More and more people these days are undergoing a detox. Toxins from our food and our suburban “habitat” build up in our bodies over time and can make us feel sluggish and discontent. A detox can help us expel these toxins and restore our physical health and vitality. All of us are exposed to spiritual toxins as well – daily patterns, personal habits, past experiences, and cultural values that sap our spiritual strength and steal our joy. This sermon series will help you become aware of the toxins building up in your soul and give you tools for detoxing your spiritual life and restoring your spiritual health. | Holy Covenant UMC

George Rodrigue Book Signing
When Cajun artist George Rodrigue began his series of Blue Dog paintings in 1984, he had no idea that they would consume the greater part of his life for over two decades, and that the mysterious Blue Dog—inspired by his studio dog–turned-model, Tiffany, and the Cajun loup-garou folk legend—would become a wildly popular international icon as well. Blue Dog Speaks is the first book to prominently emphasize Rodrigue’s painting titles, one of the most important elements in the creation of a Blue Dog painting, alongside the works. Rodrigue uses Blue Dog painting titles to provide insight—whether humorous or nostalgic or sad—into the human condition. | Barnes & Noble Lincoln Park

Frederick Clay Bartlett: Post-Impressionism
(Lecture 2 of 2)
In honor of The Impressionists: Master Paintings from the Art Institute of Chicago exhibition currently at the Kimbell in Fort Worth, Dr. Brettell will give two public lectures on private collectors of French avant-garde painting at 7:30 p.m., Oct. 7 and 14, in the Davidson Auditorium at the UT Dallas School of Management.
Although the second lecture is titled Frederick Clay Bartlett: Post-Impressionism and Modern Art in the 1920’s, it is really about two important art patrons: Clay and Martin Ryerson. Bartlett’s private collection was given to The Art Institute of Chicago in 1926 and included major paintings by Cezanne, van Gogh, Seurat, Gauguin, Picasso, Hodler and Matisse. Ryerson’s gift in 1933, however, is said to be the most important in the museum’s history because of the range of important artists and historical periods represented, from Impressionists to Old Master paintings. | School of Management, UT Dallas
