Some last-minute pointers for you:
Locally, visual arts are on parade this weekend. Don't forget the "Colors of Life" show of glass art at the Blue Water Gallery, starting tonight, Friday, April 11, with a reception from 5 to 9 p.m., and continuing through May 6. Blue Water is the new gallery at 8860 N. 32nd Street. You'll see lots of Richland and area artists represented.
And one of our greatest local art treasures, Tom Kendall, is having an open house and sale from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, April 12, at his studio, Oak Leaf Pottery, 10936 Three Mile Road in Plainwell (the area our family calls generically "the Cresseys" because, even though we now live out this direction, we're always lost and wind up on Cressey Road--check Mapquest for help--it isn't far from Richland at all). Even if you think you don't know Tom's work, you've seen his stunning ceramic vases, sculptures, and tableware in places of honor all over town--and beyond. Check the Oak Leaf Pottery website to jog your memory.
And you only have this weekend and next to see Hollywood Arms at the Civic Theatre in Kalamazoo. Our Lisa Watson is working behind the scenes on this comedy-drama based on the life of Carol Burnett. Shows Fridays and Saturdays, April 11, 12, 18 and 19 at 8 p.m., Sunday, April 13 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $15 to $20. Call 343-1313 or check the website.
