For those of you who aren’t quite ready to give up on summer so soon, check out the final CasaPoolooza of the 2016 season. Rock out in the cool of the pool and under the stars with Wolf Creek Band and their eclectic mix of Bluegrass, Classic Country, Rock-n-Roll and blues.
It’s your last chance this summer so don’t miss out on this free poolside concert. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the show begins at 8 p.m. For more information on the CasaPoolooza visit their web site www.casablanca.com. For more information on Wolf Creek Bank visit their web site http://wolfcreekband.com/.
Join the Virgin Valley Artists as they hold their monthly Brown Bag Luncheon. This month the lecture will be on large-scale art.
Large-scale artist, Jodi McGregor has painted murals in Las Vegas Casinos such as Mandalay Bay, The Monte Carlo and the Alladin. She has painted for stars such as Marie Osmond and David Cooperfield.
McGregor was spotlighted two years in a row by “Exclusively Las Vegas” magazine and was featured in various publications in Las Vegas.
McGregor moved to St. George and is a member of the Arts Commission and has served as President of the Visual Arts Association and the Visual Chair for Z-Arts.
Come listen as McGregor talks about her approach to creating large scale art and possibly trompe l’oeil (visual illusion in art, especially as used to trick the eye into perceiving a painted detail as a three-dimensional object.) She will also discuss how working large should not be intimidating and how all of the problems can be solved on a small scale.
The Mesquite Library, City Hall, Senior Center and Recreation Center will be closed on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 4.
Remember to send all your events and activities to terin.bbm@gmail.com if you want folks to know what’s going on with your group or organization. Please put “Community Calendar” in the subject line so it doesn’t get lost in cyber space.
