"Godspell" (Musical)
The Weekend Theater, 7th and Chester
Score by Stephen Schwartz; book by John-Michael Tebelak.
Based on the Gospel according to St Matthew, Godspell deals with the last days of Jesus. Yet it is something more - a religious experience, a demonstration of joy, and a celebration of the family of man. Godspell is cheerfully irreverent, spirited, loving, sprinkled with wry humor and bolstered with a good selection of songs—rock, folk, country and pop—all neatly woven in and around the parables and teachings of Jesus. However, it is a show that is more respectful than it is respectable. Basically, Godspell is an agape — a love-feast —dedicated to light and joy and love. Directed by Jamie Scott Blakey, Music Direction by Lori Isner.
Fridays and Saturdays, curtain times are at 7:30pm, for special Sunday showings (Musicals only) curtain times are at 2:30pm.
Tickets: $14.00 ($10.00 for students and seniors over 65) for Dramas and $18.00 ($14.00 for students and seniors over 65) for Musicals. Tickets can be purchased at the theater with cash, check, Mastercard or Visa.

"Downtown Nonfiction" Exhibit
Historic Arkansas Museum
Historic Arkansas Museum’s Second Floor Gallery is proud to present John Kushmaul: Downtown Nonfiction.
Downtown Nonfiction showcases the artist’s current infatuation with the architecture of Little Rock’s downtown area. “Most of the works are based upon photographs I take of the city,” said Kushmaul of his most recent series of paintings. “Little Rock serves as a convenient subject because of the variety of architecture covering the history of modern life in Arkansas.” He cites power poles, wires and satellite dishes, aspects of the city’s technological advancement, as indications of what he calls “the layer of technology that covers this history.” The style of his painting, too, comes to take on a somewhat progressive quality. His brushstrokes are loose, colorful and playful, but simultaneously controlled and deliberate. Kushmaul’s tendency to experiment with vibrant colors reflects another recurring theme within his body of work: the light of the seasons.
Historic Arkansas Museum is open 9am- 5pm Monday through Saturday, 1-5pm on Sunday.
Admission to the galleries and parking are free; tours of historic grounds are $2.50 for adults, $1.00 for children under 18, $1.50 for senior citizens. The Historic Arkansas Museum Store is open 10am-4:30pm, Monday through Saturday and 1-4pm on Sunday.

Participants and spectators will enjoy great classic rock n' roll music, have a chance to win prizes, and reminisce over these awesome vehicles!
“Cruisin’ in the Rock” rolls into the River Market pavilions and Riverfront Park, located in the heart of the downtown area and on the banks of the Arkansas River. While in the River Market District, you can enjoy a wonderful dinner at any of the great restaurants in the area.
"Cruisin' in the Rock" is open to the public and admission is free.
If you have a classic car, truck or motorcycle that you'd like to show off, or for more information on the monthly "Cruisin’ in the Rock," contact Carol Dola
