Event Title: The Cradle Will Rock
Thursday, July 1, 2010

The Cradle Will Rock opens June 4
The Cradle Will Rock is one of the most extraordinary stories in the history of American theatre. This dynamic musical, a comic morality tale, follows the citizens of Steeltown, USA-Reverend Salvation, Editor Daily, Dr. Specialist, Harry Druggist, and others-as they corrupt themselves under the control of Mr. Mister, the powerful steel magnate. Composer Mark Blitzstein described it as "a labor opera composed in a style that falls somewhere between realism, romance, vaudeville, comic strip, Gilbert and Sullivan, Brecht, and agit-prop" It was the first American musical written from a working class perspective and it laid the groundwork, in its politics and its construction, for later shows as varied as Cabaret, Hair, Pippin, Chicago, Assassins, and Rent. The New York Times said that The Cradle Will Rock "has qualities of genius . . . It catches fire, it blazes, it amuses and grips the listener."
The Cradle Will Rock is directed by Mad Cow Theatre Artistic Director Alan Bruun with musical direction by Robin Jensen. The cast features David Almeida, Eric Bridges, Brett Carson, Stephan Jones, Jonathan Lang, Ame Livingston, Todd Allen Long, Melissa Mason, Alex Mrazek, Janine Papin, Joe Reed, Alan Sincic, and Jenny Weaver.

Event Title: The Cradle Will Rock
Saturday, July 3, 2010
|
|
The Cradle Will Rock opens June 4
The Cradle Will Rock is one of the most extraordinary stories in the history of American theatre. This dynamic musical, a comic morality tale, follows the citizens of Steeltown, USA-Reverend Salvation, Editor Daily, Dr. Specialist, Harry Druggist, and others-as they corrupt themselves under the control of Mr. Mister, the powerful steel magnate. Composer Mark Blitzstein described it as "a labor opera composed in a style that falls somewhere between realism, romance, vaudeville, comic strip, Gilbert and Sullivan, Brecht, and agit-prop" It was the first American musical written from a working class perspective and it laid the groundwork, in its politics and its construction, for later shows as varied as Cabaret, Hair, Pippin, Chicago, Assassins, and Rent. The New York Times said that The Cradle Will Rock "has qualities of genius . . . It catches fire, it blazes, it amuses and grips the listener."
The Cradle Will Rock is directed by Mad Cow Theatre Artistic Director Alan Bruun with musical direction by Robin Jensen. The cast features David Almeida, Eric Bridges, Brett Carson, Stephan Jones, Jonathan Lang, Ame Livingston, Todd Allen Long, Melissa Mason, Alex Mrazek, Janine Papin, Joe Reed, Alan Sincic, and Jenny Weaver. Lighting design is by Erin Miner and costumes by Jim Walker.
The Cradle Will Rock runs from June 4 - July 4, 2010 at Mad Cow Theatre, 105 South Magnolia Avenue in Downtown Orlando. Tickets can be purchased through the Mad Cow Box Office at 407.297.8788 or online at madcowtheatre.com

Moonlight Players Presents
Noises Off June 11- July 4, 2010
Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays 8pm, Sundays, 2pm
$15 for Adults $12 for Students
For tickets call 352-319-1116
Noises Off is a 1982 play by English playwright Michael Frayn. The idea for it was born in 1970, when Frayn was standing in the wings watching a performance of Chinamen, a farce that he had written for Lynn Redgrave. According to the playwright, "It was funnier from behind than in front and I thought that one day I must write a farce from behind." In his plot for Noises Off, Frayn plays on the concept of a play within a play, in this case a parodoxically dreadful sex comedy titled Nothing On-the type of play in which young girls run about in their underwear, old men drop their trousers, and many doors continually open and shut.

HEY! Don't Be Afraid ! Edward Albee's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
It's fierce, it's ferocious, and it's a must-see! Reality TV has nothing on this play! Edward Albee's Tony Award-winning drama is a one of American theatre's classics.

This UCF production will seek out possible seeds of redemption in a relationship that seems devoid of love and hope.
Directed by Theatre Department Chair Christopher Niess, the production features Mark Brotherton and Kate Ingram, both of whom are seasoned professional actors and members of the UCF theatre faculty. Nick and Honey are played by UCF theatre students Robert Svetlik and Lindsay Clemmons.
Don't miss Edward Albee's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?, opening at the UCF Main Campus, Main Stage Theatre, on July 1st at 8 p.m. The theater is located at 400 Central Florida Blvd., in East Orlando.

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

HEY! Don't Be Afraid ! Edward Albee's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?
It's fierce, it's ferocious, and it's a must-see! Reality TV has nothing on this play! Edward Albee's Tony Award-winning drama is a one of American theatre's classics. Please be advised that this play contains strong language and violent, sexual themes. It is explicit and excitingly thought-provoking, but it is not for the young or for the faint of heart. The play scrutinizes a middle-aged couple whose marriage is on the rocks, alcohol-innuendo intended. This UCF production will seek out possible seeds of redemption in a relationship that seems devoid of love and hope.
Directed by Theatre Department Chair Christopher Niess, the production features Mark Brotherton and Kate Ingram, both of whom are seasoned professional actors and members of the UCF theatre faculty. Nick and Honey are played by UCF theatre students Robert Svetlik and Lindsay Clemmons.
Don't miss Edward Albee's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?, opening at the UCF Main Campus, Main Stage Theatre, on July 1st at 8 p.m. The theater is located at 400 Central Florida Blvd., in East Orlando.

ORLANDO'S SECOND ANNUAL BASTILLE DAY RETURNS TO THE GARDEN DISTRICT
French Wine, Live Entertainment and Games Take Center Stage This Year
Put away your powdered wig and break out the champagne, Orlando's largest Bastille Day celebration returns July 10, 2010 and will take place in the Audubon Park Garden District (www.apgardens.com) along the Corrine Drive corridor. From 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. the festival will feature an array of activities including live music by Cirque du Soleil's musical director Benoit Glazer, guitarist John Gallagher, and others; French wine and champagne; Provencal petanque games; Parisian waiters race; Dunk-a-Mime tank; French market with wine, food and art; and Pretend Poodle Parade, as well as appearances by Marie Antoinette and the presence of royalty from the Barony of Darkwater.
The day's festivities begin with a performance by Cirque du Soleil's musical director's band, the Benoit Glazer Quintet. From 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. listeners will enjoy this jazz brass ensemble while sipping champagne at Stardust. Following Benoit's group will be a variety of entertainers throughout the event, including rockabilly artist John Gallagher, who will be performing on the Moulin Rouge stage at Park Ave. CDs.
As musicians and jugglers perform throughout the street fair, Lafayette Park on Corrine Drive will host a number of activities. Provencal petanque games will take place on the lawn, a French market will offer wine, art and food, and Central Florida's Society for Creative Anachronism will present local royalty from the Barony of Darkwater.
"We're really excited about this celebration," says Garden District Director Kat Quast. "We're pulling out all the stops to offer festival-goers a wide range of things to do from fine wine sampling to the Pretend Poodle Parade. I've even heard a rumor that the queen herself will show up."
Two different contests will be held. At 5 p.m. the Parisian waiters race will take place in front of B3 and at 7 p.m. poodle wannabees can strut their stuff on the Moulin Rouge stage in the Pretend Poodle Parade. Prizes will be issued in both contests.
There will even be mimes, but with a twist. These mimes will be in a dunk tank and guests will be offered the opportunity to try their luck at putting them into the water.
The entire day is expected to be magnifique.
For more information contact Kat Quast at 407-590-8776 or by email through kat@apgardens.com or Jennifer Marvel at 407-616-2747 or by email through jennifer@marvelusideas.com.

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

Orange County Regional History Center extends
Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery
Through September 12, 2010
The Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando, Fla., will extend the run of the exhibit Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery through September 12, 2010. Fine art photographer Barbara Ery's collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson's Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.

William Vincent Kirkpatrick: American Impressionist Exhibition
Opens July 16, 6pm, Maitland Art Center
July 16 - September 5, 2010
Florida Impressionist painter William Vincent Kirkpatrick was born in St. Augustine in 1939. The artist studied at the Maitland Art Center (originally called the Research Studio) with Lois Bartlett Tracy, who was a Bok Fellow (resident artist) at the Research Studio in 1950, near the end of founder André Smith's life. Kirkpatrick traveled extensively and spent time in Taos, New Mexico, with his mentor, Alfred Morang, another noted American Impressionist. Although the American version of Impressionism was derived from the French style, it has some highly individuated qualities related to the vast American landscape and tradition. Like its French counterpart, it is characterized by bright colors, painterly textures, and everyday subjects. This exhibition comes to Maitland courtesy of Baterbys Art Auction Gallery

Founding Families
Maitland Historical Museum
July 16, 6 pm
2010 marks a special year for the City of Maitland, the 125th anniversary of its incorporation and the 40th anniversary for the Maitland Art Center and the Historical Museums to serve the community as public institutions. In the late 1800s Lake Maitland was a small town, which included a few families, citrus crops, and a handful of businesses. Maitland has come a long way since then but what makes it special is it "continues to carry with it the dreams and visions of hardworking vibrant citizenry while maintaining its picturesque setting amid cypress and lakes."

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

Opens July 16, 6pm, Maitland Art Center
July 16 - September 5, 2010
Florida Impressionist painter William Vincent Kirkpatrick was born in St. Augustine in 1939. The artist studied at the Maitland Art Center (originally called the Research Studio) with Lois Bartlett Tracy, who was a Bok Fellow (resident artist) at the Research Studio in 1950, near the end of founder André Smith's life. Kirkpatrick traveled extensively and spent time in Taos, New Mexico, with his mentor, Alfred Morang, another noted American Impressionist. Although the American version of Impressionism was derived from the French style, it has some highly individuated qualities related to the vast American landscape and tradition. Like its French counterpart, it is characterized by bright colors, painterly textures, and everyday subjects. This exhibition comes to Maitland courtesy of Baterbys Art Auction Gallery

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

Orange County Regional History Center extends
Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery
Through September 12, 2010
The Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando, Fla., will extend the run of the exhibit Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery through September 12, 2010. Fine art photographer Barbara Ery's collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson's Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.
The Orange County Regional History Center, housed in a restored historic five-story 1927 courthouse in downtown Orlando, showcases the vast collections of the Historical Society of Central Florida, Inc. The museum features three floors of permanent exhibits and also presents nationally important limited-run exhibitions.

Orange County Regional History Center extends
Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery
Through September 12, 2010
The Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando, Fla., will extend the run of the exhibit Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery through September 12, 2010. Fine art photographer Barbara Ery's collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson's Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.

William Vincent Kirkpatrick: American Impressionist Exhibition
Opens July 16, 6pm, Maitland Art Center
July 16 - September 5, 2010
Florida Impressionist painter William Vincent Kirkpatrick was born in St. Augustine in 1939. The artist studied at the Maitland Art Center (originally called the Research Studio) with Lois Bartlett Tracy, who was a Bok Fellow (resident artist) at the Research Studio in 1950, near the end of founder André Smith's life. Kirkpatrick traveled extensively and spent time in Taos, New Mexico, with his mentor, Alfred Morang, another noted American Impressionist. Although the American version of Impressionism was derived from the French style, it has some highly individuated qualities related to the vast American landscape and tradition. Like its French counterpart, it is characterized by bright colors, painterly textures, and everyday subjects. This exhibition comes to Maitland courtesy of Baterbys Art Auction Gallery

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

John C. Reilly, Marisa Tomei and Jonah Hill
CYRUS
With his social life at a standstill and his ex-wife about to get remarried, a down-on-his-luck divorcée named John (John C. Reilly) finally meets the woman of his dreams (Marisa Tomei), only to discover she has another man in her life - her son Cyrus (Jonah Hill). Before long, the two are locked in a battle of wits for the woman they both love-and it appears only one man can be left standing when it's over.

William Vincent Kirkpatrick: American Impressionist Exhibition
Opens July 16, 6pm, Maitland Art Center
July 16 - September 5, 2010
Florida Impressionist painter William Vincent Kirkpatrick was born in St. Augustine in 1939. The artist studied at the Maitland Art Center (originally called the Research Studio) with Lois Bartlett Tracy, who was a Bok Fellow (resident artist) at the Research Studio in 1950, near the end of founder André Smith's life. Kirkpatrick traveled extensively and spent time in Taos, New Mexico, with his mentor, Alfred Morang, another noted American Impressionist. Although the American version of Impressionism was derived from the French style, it has some highly individuated qualities related to the vast American landscape and tradition. Like its French counterpart, it is characterized by bright colors, painterly textures, and everyday subjects. This exhibition comes to Maitland courtesy of Baterbys Art Auction Gallery

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

Orange County Regional History Center extends
Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery
Through September 12, 2010
The Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando, Fla., will extend the run of the exhibit Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery through September 12, 2010. Fine art photographer Barbara Ery's collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson's Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.
The Orange County Regional History Center, housed in a restored historic five-story 1927 courthouse in downtown Orlando, showcases the vast collections of the Historical Society of Central Florida, Inc.

William Vincent Kirkpatrick: American Impressionist Exhibition
Opens July 16, 6pm, Maitland Art Center
July 16 - September 5, 2010
Florida Impressionist painter William Vincent Kirkpatrick was born in St. Augustine in 1939. The artist studied at the Maitland Art Center (originally called the Research Studio) with Lois Bartlett Tracy, who was a Bok Fellow (resident artist) at the Research Studio in 1950, near the end of founder André Smith's life. Kirkpatrick traveled extensively and spent time in Taos, New Mexico, with his mentor, Alfred Morang, another noted American Impressionist. Although the American version of Impressionism was derived from the French style, it has some highly individuated qualities related to the vast American landscape and tradition. Like its French counterpart, it is characterized by bright colors, painterly textures, and everyday subjects. This exhibition comes to Maitland courtesy of Baterbys Art Auction Gallery

Flagman
July 09, 2010 through July 25, 2010
There can be no better month to celebrate a visit from Ab the Flagman than July. We hope you can join us for the opening of his summer show on Friday, July 9.
Opening Reception
Fri. July 9
6 - 9pm
Ab is currently in high energy mode as he prepares for the show. While his flags are instantly recognizable and highly collectible, not many admirers realize the labor intensive steps that go into their creation.
With steady patience, Ab cuts out hundreds of varied shapes for the undulating stripes and irregular stars that are used to build up layers on the wooden base. Once the saw cools off, then he begins the meticulous placement of each piece. Before a coat of paint, Ab takes a torch to his work. Surprised? It's not what you think.
One of the steps in building a flag is to lightly scorch the surface of the wood.
Instead of sanding each piece individually, Ab uses the heat of a flame to burn off rough edges. This also acts as a way to seal the wood and prepares the surface to absorb paint. It's not a finished work until Ab has painted the stars and stripes and varnished the surface.
A gallery talk is scheduled during the run of the show. This is a great opportunity to meet Ab and hear about his inspirations and his unique take on making folk art. No reservations are required, just drop in for a visit.

Orange County Regional History Center extends
Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery
Through September 12, 2010
The Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando, Fla., will extend the run of the exhibit Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery through September 12, 2010. Fine art photographer Barbara Ery's collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson's Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.
The Orange County Regional History Center, housed in a restored historic five-story 1927 courthouse in downtown Orlando, showcases the vast collections of the Historical Society of Central Florida, Inc. The museum features three floors of permanent exhibits and also presents nationally important limited-run exhibitions. The museum, an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, is accredited by the American Association of Museums.
Located at 65 E. Central Boulevard in the heart of downtown Orlando, the Orange County Regional History Center is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. General admission for this exhibit is $9 for adults, $7 for seniors (60+), students and military* with I.D., $6 for children ages 5-12, and children ages 4 and under and Members of the Historical Society are free.

Although the American version of Impressionism was derived from the French style, it has some highly individuated qualities related to the vast American landscape and tradition.

Passionate Music of the Strings Highlighted in Philharmonic Concert
The Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra continues its 2010 Sounds of Summer Series with an enchanting musical program, Strings of Passion, on Monday, July 26, 2010. The program is held at 7:00 PM in the Margeson Theater in the Lowndes Shakespeare Center, 812 E. Rollins Street, Orlando.
The Orlando Bolshoi Violin Ensemble returns for a program of great works from all genres including glorious baroque music, romantic pieces, passionate tangos and jazz standards.
"There are few means of artistic expression that lend themselves to expressing passion better than music," says violinist Olga Feroni. "With a selection of music ranging from compositions of Handel to the innovative melodies of American jazz, this will be less a history lesson of great music and more of a journey through the creative spirit and passion that has driven all human endeavors since the first creative thought dawned in the minds of our prehistoric ancestors. Music is everywhere in love and life."
Performing on the program are violinists Olga Ferroni, Joni Hanze- Bjela, Julia Gessinger, Shelley Mathews, Olga Kolpakova and Dina Fedosenko, along with pianist Sergei Kossenko.
Works include Handel's Trio Sonata, op. 2, Mendelssohn's Song Without Words, Dubossarsky's Romanian Fantasy, Elgar's Salut d'Amour, Piazzola's Libertango and many more inspiring works.
Single tickets are available in three price levels: Level 1 seating: $37 for adults, $33 for seniors and $18.50 for students with valid ID; Level 2 seating: $26 for adults, $23 for seniors and $13 for students with valid ID; Level 3 seating: $14 for adults, seniors and students.

Orange County Regional History Center extends
Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery
Through September 12, 2010
The Orange County Regional History Center in Orlando, Fla., will extend the run of the exhibit Orlando Landmarks: Photo Transfers by Barbara Ery through September 12, 2010. Fine art photographer Barbara Ery's collection of 30 photo transfers highlights buildings including the Howard Vernon Motel, The Plaza Theatre, and the Kress Building, and iconic signs at Johnson's Diner, McNamara Pontiac, and Merita Bread. The exhibit was originally scheduled to run June 5 through August 8, 2010.
Ery, photographer and emerging artist, enjoys shooting and working directly with film. Ery crafts original photo transfers using the Polaroid Transfer Process, developing images on watercolor paper using varying exposure times, temperatures, colors, and film. For this exhibit, she produced the one-of-a-kind photo transfers of familiar Orlando landmarks using a camera, enlarger, slide printer, and Polaroid film to create a nostalgic effect reminiscent of browsing through an heirloom photo album. Ery believes each photo transfer has a dreamy, impressionist quality that showcases the special method of the Polaroid Transfer Process.
The Orange County Regional History Center, housed in a restored historic five-story 1927 courthouse in downtown Orlando, showcases the vast collections of the Historical Society of Central Florida, Inc. The museum features three floors of permanent exhibits and also presents nationally important limited-run exhibitions.
