Mary Whyte, Anyone?

Jay DeChesere has a two hour DVD on Portraits of the South by Mary Whyte.
It is an instructional video using watercolors. 
He would like to invite local watercolorists to view this at his home sometime in June.
He has not set a date but wants to see if there is interest at this time. 
Please email Jay at jdc001@mac.com if you are interested.
Depending on the number and seating availability, we will go from there.

120 South 2nd Street
 
May 14th - May17th, 2015
Thursday, Friday & Saturday at 7:00 pm,
Saturday & Sunday at 3:00 pm
 

Thalian Association Community Theatre will end their youth theatre season with the beloved masterpiece Cats, based on the popular poetry of T. S. Eliot. Join the Jellicle Cats onstage for one weekend only, May 14 through 17, at the Hannah Block Historic USO/Community Arts Center, 120 South 2nd Street in downtown Wilmington. Performances are Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7PM; with Saturday and Sunday matinees at 3PM. To purchase tickets visit www.thalian.org or call 910-341-7860.
 
 
Cats tells the story, in song and dance, of the annual gathering of Jellicle cats, at which time one special cat is selected to ascend to the Heaviside layer. Andrew Lloyd Webber’s masterpiece comes alive through songs such as “Memory” and is the third longest running Broadway show in history. A true musical theatre phenomenon, Thalian Association Community Theatre presented Cats as a Wilmington premiere in its “Season of Firsts” in 2006. The talented team includes David T. Loudermilk (Director/Choreographer), Katie Richmond Deese (Music Director), and Hoggard High School student Jessi Goei (Assistant Director/Choreographer), with a special appearance by Wilmington theatre sensation, JR Rodriguez.
 
Another Thalian Community Theatre first, the Wilmington Art Association is hosting an exhibition during the run of Cats featuring the portraits of cast members in the iconic character make-up. The paintings will be on sale to the public, with a portion of the proceeds to benefit the Community Art Center.
