It’s your last chance to see the Virgin Valley Theatre Group’s show that’s getting rave reviews.
Blithe Spirit revolves around Charles Condomine, who is planning a séance as research for his new book. He invites the eccentric medium, Madam Arcati, into his English country home intending to expose the Madam as a fraud.
To witness this event, Charles and his second wife, Ruth, invite the skeptical Dr. Bradman and his anxious-to-believe wife, Violet. When, in the course of the séance, Madam Arcati mistakenly summons Charles’ first wife, Elvira, back from the beyond, things get thoroughly out of hand.
Join the VVTG and the Cast of Blithe Spirit at the Mesquite Community Theatre, 150 N. Yucca St. on Friday and Saturday at 7 p.m.
In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month the Department of Athletics Senior Division, in partnership with local Zumba fitness instructors help raise needed funds to support the Mesquite Cancer HELP Society. They will hold a Zumba-thon Charity Event on Thursday, Oct. 20 from 6-8 p.m. at the Mesquite Recreation Center.
For more information please contact the Mesquite Community and Senior Center at 702-346-5290.
Come and enjoy an afternoon making gift baskets. The Virgin Valley Museum is happy to sponsor the second part of the series presentation. Frawnda from Danielle’s Chocolates will come and share her skills of putting together gift baskets.
It is not necessary to attend both parts to enjoy this wonderful skill. If you would like to bring small boxes or gift items to get ideas for presentation please do so. This activity is free to the public and more suited to adults.
On Saturday Oct. 22, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Virgin Valley Heritage Museum will host ‘Turkey Time’ at the pavilion behind the Museum.
Learn how to cook a Thanksgiving turkey and pie in a Dutch oven. If you are looking for a different way to do Thanksgiving this may be the answer.
Early settlers in the area frequently used Dutch ovens as part of daily life. Come learn how to use a Dutch oven for everyday or emergency cooking.
This free, family-friendly activity will be outside in the pavilion between the Art Gallery and the Museum, so please bring something to sit on (e.g. blanket, chair).
For more information about this event and the Museum, call 702-346-5705, find them on Facebook at MesquiteNVMuseum or stop by the Museum at 35 W. Mesquite Blvd. The Museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Send all your activities to terin.bbm@gmail.com and please remember to put “community calendar” in the subject line so your event notice doesn’t get lost in cyber space or spam. If I don’t receive your notice, I can’t post it. Have a great week; stay active.
